I too have a Byron Staggerwing, professionally built.
After hearing reports of one flying just this past week with a G-38 for power, I have chosen to power mine the same way. The G-38 pro
vided more than enough power to fly the plane prototypicaly. Not too fast with enough vertical performance to do loops from level flight.
I too know Chuck Colier. The G-62 that he flys make the Staggerwing into a racer, BUT, too fast is not fast enough for Chuck.
Hope to have the engine mounted this week.
One question, does the Stagger ask for engine offset and do you think that the Byron motor mount will hold the G-38?
Thanks for any and all help.
