Long-awaited update on RV Man's B-17 project.

Today we annoyed all the other attendees of the club Fun-Fly by tuning and breaking in all four Webra .32's.

They sound good and pull well on the ground: @13,000 rpm with APC 10X7's, running a little rich.

Hope to have report of a taxi-shakedown, even a maiden later this week.

Century Jet mains. Weight now @19 lbs, but anticipate need for 2# lead in the nose.
