The 1960 era Rivers Silver Arrow 3.5cc diesel is now squeezed into a 2.5cc sized slow combat model for a test fly. It's had about 2/3 of a litre of fuel through it now and usually starts up first flick. Turns the RAM 8x6 prop with authority. It was from the estate of the late Dave Owen, and it seems that it wasn't run.
