I got my Corvair finished and running on Friday. Was a rush! After over a yearit's finally done. I'm still breaking it in but I get about 2750 rpm staticwith a 66x29 Tenesee prop. This thing has some good power!a QuickTime video of the first run is here:www.imagedv.com/aircamper/first-run.movDJ_=This email has been scanned for known viruses and made safe for viewing by Half Price Hosting, a leading email and web hosting provider.

DJ,Great video! I got excited just watching it. With all the pro's and con'stalked about, about Corvairs, keep us posted on the performance .Every once in a while while flying, I think of all the pieces that I gluedand all the engine parts that I fitted and assembled, and when you areflying in it, it is a real rush. People that haven't done it will never know.walt evansNX140DL----- Original Message -----
