Hi Paul
Boy there is sure some great information in the Rotary Chat area. As I
operate a car racing school with one of the fleets being Mazda RX-7's we
have alot of experience with Rotarys as we run them day in and day
out.(racingadventures.com)
I am looking at putting a Rotary into a falconer P-51 in the future and have
gained much from the chat area. I figure the build will take a few years.
Thanks for all the great info and keep it up.
Kindest Regards
David

Thanks David. I am up here in Ottwa using my son's computer so I am some what
limited in data for the news letter so hold those cards and letters.
Will be back later this week hopefully.
Arlington was great. There was a Coot amphib using a rotary with 650 hours.
He had a big nitrouis bottle to help him get off the water as the gross weight
was 2600 pounds. He was swinging a six bladed warp drive prop with
a 2.85:1 Ross PSRU. He discoverd the thrust from the Ford C6 helical sun gear
was feeding
through the e-shaft to the Mazda front cover thrust bearing and destroying it.
Chuck Harbert devised a fix for this which he will share with us soon.
More about this later.
