Damn Rob

I am so very happy for you Brother. . . . . . You have gone through hell and high water to get that BEAST and now you can relax a little and dream about screaming low passes with that monster. . . . . . . .

I’ll bet all the redheads are jealous...

Thanks David.. yes, I'm certain to be dreaming of high speed pursuit sorties. Chasing those Jerries. Pulling up to a grandiose slow victory roll as the Luftwaffe pilot eats it. The roar of the power from up in the nose will sing sweet lullabies while I slumber.

Thank you so much. Worked my ass off for it that's for sure. But well worth it. Now I just need to figure out how to get all the redheads happy again. They're not speaking to me all of a sudden. Lol

Don't worry about those reds. You will be too busy blasting away through your build making new airplane and engine noises .

The brushless starter is going to be such a treat and the factor is off the chart. Now your challenge is going to be making the insides look as good as the outside and the outside sound as real as it gets. Plus knowing your plane will more than likely fly faster than my little chunk "O" foam jet .

Nice thought, but truthfully....not even caring about how "FAST" it will go. I just can't wait to see the coooooool air envelope the Mighty Stang. LOL. Going to be a challenge to do the engine justice giving it a classy and right smart looking home to reside in. I will give it my best shot.

Something to show my happiness. This is perfect.

That is fantastic Rob, very happy for you. You have not felt anything yet, that first time firing up a big four stroke is a feeling that can not be described. The first time with a big two stroke is scary, the first time with a big four is pure unadulterated elation.

Well it has been a long journey to this point. And I am really happy for you that is one gorgeous engine that is only words I can come up with. Not only happy for you but for all of us that live along with you on this journey. As said at this time of life not much gets us excited but this sure did for you take the time to take it all in.
