Not sure I agree with this: It may be hard to match, but a 914 engine will
help (especially if you fly at altitude) and all he really did was pay close
attention to details.... fairing bits properly, making sure doors, access
panels and the like were flush, and so on. I believe that he's well into an
XS now, so it'll be interesting to see how fast that goes.
