Posts made past 02:30PM 12/30/24 won't be on the new site!

We are in the final stages of resolving the issues with the forums move to the new location. After talking with tech support, the only solution was to send him a copy of all the images. This will take time - but we know the fix SO it's only a matter of time now.

Thanks again for your patience,

        The word is that the blower suffered "minor" problems...

        It will be replaced at Stead over the winter. No too expensive, but a big pain in the butt! Cowl off, then prop off, then engine out to stand, then back case open to get to blower, then rinse and repeat...

        The Odegaards had a blast and I expect Bob to be back, but anything is possible...

        Ironically the big Pratt is easier to get parts for than its more popular "smaller" siblings. It seems that there were lots of them made, and barely any in use today...

        Cheers.
