No progress on my UMS 770. My best hope is the guy in Osaka (importer for Evolution engines).
In the meantime, over the holidays, I pulled my Sopwith Snipe out of mothballs, re-did the rigging (16 wires on each side), and today ran its Saito 72 for the first time in months. It started right up but still needs some tuning. It has been a long time since the Snipe was in the air.
