Thank-you! That little Yak is really gaining ground. In the Words of Smoot of yesterdays LiveAirshow interview, "We're gonna win..and it might be this year."

Spark plugs out of race 38

Is that a good or bad thing?

I think the only crew not pulling plugs is 232

No point in checking/cleaning them if it is out altogether

So it's a good thing

Rare Bear on course... slow laps... just pulled up for cooldown.

Sparky coming down to the course.

Czech Mate video I took yesterday noon, never noticed this slight whistle voice in the past years: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUgpk2HAMoQ

Nice video, thanks. I did catch the "slight whistle" and I don't remember it either. Maybe that's a result of one of the tweaks in the cowling...?

Edit to add: I didn't notice the whistling sound in this video from last year:

You will love it!! I flew with Dan in Speedball Alice one evening after the Warbird Roundup in Nampa. I get chills every time I think about it or hear of someone going up. Dan and Lisa are great folks to be around. Enjoy your flight!

77 seems like it's having cooling problems. Couldn't get half a lap before he was up into the cooldown.

In a straight line? level? How would they measure speed? What is the source of the rumor??

Friend in the pits near the Bear crew while she was in the air. Obviously not anywhere near confirmed, just adding anything I know.

Not sure about flight path, can anyone help with that?
