Default RE: Debonair finished

I flew a deb on Sunday for the first time. A new member brought it out and I maidened/ trimmed it for him. Very nice flying plane. This one had a OS 46 la and it seemed to be powered pretty well. We were spinning a Master airscrew 10x6 at 13,100. It was on skis and I could not get enough ground speed, so we had to hand launch it. This was in deep snow (hard packed) with the temp in the upper 30's. Hopefully the weather will stay in the upper 30's this week and we will melt the snow off. Still have about 7 inches to go.
