This Glasair I RG is powered by a Subaru SVX ( 230 H.P. six cylinder ) engine. She climbed and handled well. For the first flight, I kept the landing gear down and the speeds low. High oil temperatures cut the flight short.....am working on some fixes....hope to be back in the air in this weekend. Russell & Rhea Sherwood Houston, TX
