Does the cold seizure possibility diminish as the engine gets more and more hours
of use. After maybe 50 , 100 hours.
Thanks,

I'm a long time lurker who feels like he knows the group. I think you guys will
like this.
My new friend Shane I and met up by commenting on each other's utube vids. I found
out he was about 52m away and I flew over for a visit.
He's got a 503DC Phantom with a power fin prop. We taxied down together and turned
around. I then realized what genius Homer is.
You see this '87 5 rib 447 Culver propped Firestar is the only plane I've flown
and last Sunday was the first time I'd flown "with" anyone.
When I left my field earlier, I knew the alt/den was going to make my climb rate....modest.
I also had my cruise prop on which made following Shane across his
"backyard" difficult. Below 5000rpm my rotax begins to fall off the pipe and
run a little rough.
After watching the vid, I'm a little ashamed of how much I was monkeying with the
throttle to stay behind. I normally set the throttle,
go fly, and don't touch it until I'm coming down.lol
I made due by making S turns and crabbing. Next time we fly, I'll have my climb
prop on and we should be close.
After the flight he told me he was at max cruise to try to help me out.
I knew I had a sweet little flyer, but I now have a new appreciation for what a
true gift Homer has given us.

That brings back some memories in sight and sound.
My second aircraft I built and flew was a 1987 Kolb Firestar, 447 scsi, with
a Jim Culver 60X30 prop. Loved flying that little FS. ;-)

Nice video. What sort of camera were you using? And what was the frame rate, and
did you have it mounted to your headset?
