RE: Byron P-51 Mustang
Really nice plane, Bob. I wish that mine was that complete. Are you using a starter on your plane? I noticed the wear on the spinner. What starter do you use?
Unfortunately, I think that the motor I have with mine is a Quad 35. I wish that it was a 45. The paperwork that came with my plane suggests that. The 50 wasn't even available when my plane was made. The numbers on the bottom of the engine say 81 so it was made in 1981 I think. I have alot of work to do. I do not think that it will be done by May. That is my goal though.
Does anyone have any video or know where any video is on this plane running and flying? I have searched every nook and cranny on the web for that and only found one video on this and it was good but the guy that posted it drowned out all of the sound of the plane and engine with music. What a bummer!!!!!! Good video but music at wrong timing on this subject is not really that good.
