That is a very BIG prop!!   Waiting for the test run!

Neil Unger

Takes a big prop to absorb 650 HP

That prop is almost as big as the prop on our PT6 powered Legend.

We will try to start it in the next
couple of days. The oil system is working
and tested with 4 and 1/2 gallons and the fuel boost
pump is working along with the fuel distribution
system.

We have figured out the oil system only uses
about 1.5 gallon a minute so our oil cooler
is close to useless. No way is 4.5 gallons of oil
going to get hot in 1.5 minutes.

The Motec EFIS is a big help although
limited.

The cooling water goes in tomorrow.


The future PT6 replacement.
