Great paint scheme!

Richard.Thanks for the complement. I have owned a corvair that I bought from my father back in the late 60's. We never had any problems with the car or the engine. I had William Wynne's team build the engine for me. I did go to his place and watch parts of the engine being built. I have not flown the plane yet but have had a competent pilot/instructor do the 1st flights. There is now 8+ hours on the plane. I couldn't be happier with the engine. The pilot said there is pleanty of power. It runs real smooth and it is QUIET. If I were building another I would not hesitate to use the same engine. Alan

Alan - Like the paint scheme. How do you like the Corvair? Did you do the engine or did you buy it? How many flight hours?
