Title: Maiden Voyage
Post by: sbkuroki on February 25, 2012, 09:23:56 pm
Check this link out. My neighbor Merv in the blue snow plane and friend Lorne in the snow plane the video is taken from, came along on my first run of about 20 miles.

  Looks like she can scoot right along. Have to do any fine tuning to the bomber ? I'd love to go for a ride in one of those snow planes. It looks like fun.

The first run was perfect. Other than a few hose clamps to tighten, she works just fine.
Merv built his plane from scratch, it's 1 of 3 he has right now. The day of the video both planes would just idle along at about 20 mph and I was at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle.
