Hey Tom,

If Monday looks good I may head up your way. Our Fun Fly has been postponed. That's the third time this season. It would seem like the higher up's have not been watching the weather channel.

It took about a pound of weight up front and it sounds like a lot but that O.S 120 pulls it well. The rx and smoke battery's were moved up front today and a larger smoke tank went in the fuselage. The only thing I didn't get to was the preheater. That has to make a different's. I need to go to the hardware store in the morning and copper tube is on the list.

Vibration may be an issue but that would otherwise be an ideal location for your pump. If it came down to it, mounting with a rubber shock pad should work and you'd still have room for your battery on the firewall.
