Guten Tag, ich bin über die Viking Webseite auf Ihren Namen gestossen. Da ich selbst eine Zanair CH650B als LTF600 baue, und ebenfalls über Viking Motor nachdenke, würde ich mich freuen, wenn sie mir mit ihren Erfahrungen weiterhelfen könnten. Balingen ist sehr dicht an meiner alten Heimat Reutlingen, jedoch wohne ich aktuell in Rheinland Pfalz, bei Idar-Oberstein. Würde mich freuen wenn wir ins Gespräch einmal kommen könnten denn Der Viking 130 will nicht mehr aus meinem Kopf. Viele Grüße
Benjamin

1) Distance from propeller shaft to the ground = 1045mm (on my 601)
2) Do you use a nose wheel spacer?  No, but don't know if I will need to.

3) What is your propeller diameter?  3-blade 68".  Blade measures 814mm, but is still in the shipping plastic.  I'm a ways from installing it, so I don't know what the ground clearance will be at this time.

Hi Franz.  5 years ago today for your First Flight.  Happy Anniversary!

Tell Jan that I said "hello" when you visit him.  I should have my new Viking engine running shortly...
