Many thanks to several guys that gave their time freely last Saturday and  Sunday during the Reno National Air Race Championships.

  

 We were able to remove my old engine on my L-29 and install a factory  overhauled zero timed engine.  By Sunday afternoon we had it completely  installed with everything hooked up and safety wired.

  

 First start attempt was successful and it ran perfectly.  Cycled flaps  and gear on the jacks and all is well.

  

 MANY thanks to:

 GARY COLE (Houston TX)

 PETE TAYLOR (Red Bluff, CA)

 STACY LAWRENCE (Redding, CA)

  

 These guys worked together TIRELESSLY throughout the day Saturday and  Sunday during the air show.

  

 The reason for writing this is to recognize 3 gentlemen that pitched in and  helped me change out my engine and did not ask for a dime!!

 It wasn't about making a buck it was about camaraderie!

  

 These guys are among the BEST the L-29 group has to offer and I wanted to  recognize them for their selfless contribution!  This is what makes it so  enjoyable to be apart of the L-29 group!

  

 Thank you gentlemen,

  

 Scott Douglass

 Reno, NV

John,  will you come up in a few weeks if we have a L-29 gathering up here? we are going to have some iskras too..should be a great time?  We will be picking a date soon, end of oct beg of nov is what we are shooting for.  Fuel should be right around $3 a gallon as well, hopefully lower.  And about this weekend at the races...Scott, Pete and Stacy I know well as we are always together but it was really great to meet Gary and he's a great guy and very knowledgeable with the L-29.

That time  frame sounds good to me.  I have made plans to go to AOPA in Palm Spring  but that is the week end of 11/9.

 I would love  to come up and meet everyone.

Hi Scott  

   

So with the 0 time engine do you notice more thrust?
