Hi! Dave
Ivor will be in dreamland yet so I'll do a quick reply XS c/w ..914 and
Woodcomp SR3000 Scimitar c/w Smart controller and lots of electronic
guismo's I would suggest making it as near IFR capable as possible. He
is going to find it difficult not to be in it constantly ...then we have
the price of our fuel to work as a brake !
Regards
Bob Harrison G-PTAG Kit 337.

Congratulations Ivor, nice photos.
Looks like a Woodcomp prop, 912 S or 914?
Happy Flying,

I am very pleased to announce the First flight of G-IVER at 0831 today,
My good friend and flying companion Bob Harrison came down to Lydd to
witness the event, and without his encouragement and sage advise she
probably wouldn't be flying for at least a couple of more years,
She is a little bit of a porker :-) at 910 lb but you wouldn't know it
---From the way she climbed away, It flew straight and true and is a
delight to fly, I am looking forward to all the test flying at long
last, All I can say is the 40 minutes of flight time today is ample
reward for the years of building,
One very happy bunny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
