"The origanal power plant was a 505, great little engine, but quite thursty.  I repowered it with the HKS in 2006.  ..  LOVE the engine  and it is quite frugal with the fuel..  Oh, and by the way 15 deg F. is a heat wave in my part of town."

"Today  dawned bright and clear. A little cold, but the sun would soon warm it up to low 50's. A veritable heat wave for this time of year. The wind stayed down, so I rolled dart out of the hanger and made a trip to Rome to buy a hunting and fishing license. ( as good a reason to fly as any) Of course I am still in the test phase and this is the first time that wind has not been a factor in flying."
