We've been using a similar set up, with a small security

camera mounted in

the end of a peice of plastic pipe, for some strucural

inspections on Pink

(http://www.pink.at/bilder/fde31.jpg). The view is much better

than the $$$

boroscopes I am used to (although it's not a fair comparison

as we have

boro

equipment down to 2.5mm diameter). A very cheap, effective

inspection tool.

Now THAT is a skydiver hauler if I ever saw one!
I've been wondering how a couple of 20B's (or 26B's) running 2

atmospheres

of boost and a 3:1 gear would work on a cabin class jump plane.

Sure give

the turbines a run for their money.  Anyone got a Beech 18 that

needs

engines?  P-)
How much does an R-985 weigh?

Just remember guys you cannot put a certified airplane in the experimental
category and use it for commercial purposes. I am  from the FAA and I am here
to keep your ass in line :)
