Title: 2015 Fall Follies
Post by: John Leidle on October 06, 2015, 02:38:14 PM: A few more positive things came out of the Salem contest last weekend , Walter Hicks flew a plane with his KZ77 in it , it is an engine that will run in a docile mode & show tremendous power as the tank goes lean, Thank you Walter for showing us how it runs, Also one of the guys that's flown a few years in Advanced has moved up to Expert & looks well in doing so. Mark Scarborow (SP) will move up with a new plane & practice.

Mark, if you'll use a TUT I'll buy you a burrito at every contest we both attend -- then you can call yourself a professional factory pilot.

But you gotta pay for it.

If you're really nice I'll buy something at Taco Bell. Otherwise I'll just stop at a 7-11 and put the thing on my exhaust manifold on the way to the contest.
