    Greg,

     How is your flying going? Do you have the 40 hrs
flown off yet?
     Kelly Troyer

We do!  Temps and pressures are good, so far the only thing to watch is
Inlet Temp gets to 140 degrees F when running 10 PSIG boost on
takeoff.  I've found that there's no real need for that kind of power.  I
typically run 4.5-6.5 PSIG boost on takeoff and do about the same in terms
of ground roll.  If I had a constant speed prop that would be different,
but all I do with my wooden prop is make more noise above a certain RPM!

Best of luck with the drive -- hope to see you at Tracy's in the fall.
