I have posted a few words here on the EA-81 in my air camper. I biult my reduction drive from plans I purchased from RFI publishing. I am using a single electronic ignition (crane cams XR-700) two 36MM carbs mounted on a simple 90 degree manifold madw up from 1 3/4 inch tubing and 1/4 inch plate. I am very pleased with this combination. It started first pull and has run for 114 hours without a single stutter. I did spend a little time getting the jetting right but once it was dialed in it realy runs good and gives me great performance. The airplane will be at Broadhead this summer so if any of you are interested drop by and get a ride or just take a look.Duane Woolsey NX6398________________________________________________________________________________

A baby is just another "homebuilt", very experimental, takes up all yourfree time and cash, likes a good bath and comes with a built-in "stall"horn! Should have an EPA warning back by the tail, though.And a very rewarding experience, love both of our giggly, blond girls!Mike ListJohn Greenlee wrote:> > Hmmm.... I wonder which is more fun.

Dear Group,I am not sure that this is the correct place to do this but I will go ahead and post it just to see what kind of response I get. I am selling my Piet this summer at broadhead or Oshkosh. I am asking 12,000.00 or offer. This is a to the plans airplane that weighs 680lbs and is powered with an EA-81 Suburu. It is yellow and red with gray pinstriping. There are 114 total hours on it and it is in great shape. The workmanship is quite good and will make someone a great airplane. It will be available at broadhead for test flights and viewing.Duane Woolsey NX6398________________________________________________________________________________

Duane is being humble here. His plane is beautiful. I have flown it and itoutperforms my A-65 version. The finish is a dandy.
