N727RT Progress Summary:  Apr 2006  .

 

SNF 2006:  I stopped and looked at a TSIO-550 engine which Lancair had for sale (nearly new) on the way to SNF (which I later bought).  At SNF I also researched props and ordered a New MT.  The prop will not be here until the fall - it's a long lead time item.  The two ES's shown below belong to Brian Burr (UT) and Ron Raby (NH).  Both won awards!

After returning home, I was motivated to get sanding again.  I also noticed several ES's with small surface/paint cracks on the gear leg fairings.  I added a couple bids of carbon to the lower gear fairing edge.
