Paul,

The EZ is flying great. It is doing a honest 230 MPH+. I have added a
spinner and reduced the size of the augmentation tube. I have not had good
air to test the speed but it looks like 240. I am going to be a Osch in the
auto area. Hope to see you there.

Well there Perry. Charlie is using a direct drive NA Soob. Perhaps what you
need is a turbo 13B running at 4000 RPM no duct like Charlie here.
Can't wait to see his prop at OSH. What is your takeoff distance and
takeoff time Charlie? Gross weight?

I am sure you will check your fuel burn and average speed carefully on the
way OSH Charlie. Klause needs a wake up call :-)

What RPM are you actually turning Charlie, and what is your prop
diameter?
