Hey credit where credit is due Doug they look bloody inpressive to me too. jason

I was planning on using Derakane vinyl ester for the wing tanks in my modified KR project to combat ethanol but the KR boys in the states are are having mixed results , some have gone years with no problems others were getting a caramel like sludge within months . i will more than likely go with the aluminium . Here's one way of doing it http://www.krnet.org/wingtank/ I am considering pumping from the wing tanks to a small plastic header tank http://www.summitracing.com/search/Part-Type/Fuel-Cells/?keyword=plastic+fuel+cells they're perfect ,come in a range of sizes and for the price i dont think it would be worth the effort and cost to make one out of fiberglass . jason

Very interesting thanks OME. jason

Hey congrats Eric well done.. Jason

Fantastic ! thanks for that Neil i really enjoyed it . Jason

Ahhh living the dream good onya Tomo

looked to me like a high speed taxi test gone horribly wrong , it certainly didnt sound like that corvair was at full song . I would be very suprised if it was a rear C of G issue with a heavy corvair and psru up front . I noticed the up elevator also and what sounded like 3/4 throttle which is why i thought it was a taxi test, but i couldnt work out why he wouldnt have got the tail up and angle of attack down and pinned the mains down with down elevator , rather than maintain the wing at pretty much climb angle of attack at marginal flying speed ?

Hey congrats Enoch ......not jealous much..

Thats awsome , happy travels Dave.... jason

So so sad my sincere condolences. Jason
