I have a 170 on a Staggerwing but holding out running it to find a 200R3. Hope the above videos are better music to your ears?

Anyhow, keep an eye out, some good stuff in it



The box with the Fromeco Tach was delivered long ago.

OK Gary, a very heavy package arrived today, the side had blown out of the box and the Post Officer did a real cob job patching it up. He or she used enough Holiday tape to increase it's weight by 50%. Thanks much, the props and tach survived just fine. I'll PM about money.

The new iron arrived today also, it wasn't supposed to arrive until the 14th, it is a dandy, digital temperature is right on the money. It even verified something I had suspected that one on my CoveRite thermometers always read high, it does indeed. Geri also bought me a Hangar nine iron, it's very nice also. Both have completely flat bottoms, no curves.
Pete is sending me a few FireBall Hot Plugs to try in four strokes.

A shot of the H9 Iron:


Number 3 is 230 degrees, (and it's right on) close enough to 225 degree low setting for 21st Century fabric.

The H9 was made by the same company that made the Top Flite model they changed the label and handle color. They were made under a bunch of different brands I remember one was a supply company for libraries who used them to put labels on books back in the day.

Those are the plugs I sent Dave. I have had good results with them in FS engines. Do they still even make Fireball plugs? I have a couple of cards of the hot ones and one card of the standard ones.

Pete, I must confess, I was confused for a bit, I thought Pete from Oz. was sending a few plugs also. The laugh is on me, many thanks. I'll run the hots in a couple of different sized Saitos and at least one high compression Saito, I have an old 80 with 15.5 to 1 compression.

Gary, I may hit you up for a roll or two of the Cub Yellow fabric covering. It just ain't goin as far as I thought.

Dae,

A bit worried here, The US Postal Mail and election fraud operation claims they finally delivered the package yesterday. Have you seen it???



"Your item was delivered in or at the mailbox at 2:36 pm on December 4, 2020"

There was quite a bit of good stuff in there!
