Greg Richter will be receiving a plaque from the
AirCraft Rotary Engine NewsLetter for the best engineered
rotary installation at OSH this year.

Note the alternator. The aircraft vacuum pump mounted on the
back of the alternator was the only part to fail on the trip
up from Georgia.

Note also the relatively small size of the water radiator.
Greg has implemented excellent scoops & ducting for all three
radiators. More pictures soon. Greg figures he has 
about 300 HP for take off at 5 to 8 psi boost as it gets
off the ground in about 400 feet. That is one of Tracy's
six pinion planetary PSRU's on there.
