Jorgen _____ From: owner-l29-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-l29-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of SD737@aol.com Sent: 18 September 2006 08:46 PM Subject: L29-List: Reno National Air Race Championship Many thanks to several guys that gave their time freely last Saturday and Sunday during the Reno National Air Race Championships. We were able to remove my old engine on my L-29 and install a factory overhauled zero timed engine. By Sunday afternoon we had it completely installed with everything hooked up and safety wired. First start attempt was successful and it ran perfectly. Cycled flaps and gear on the jacks and all is well. MANY thanks to: GARY COLE (Houston TX) PETE TAYLOR (Red Bluff, CA) STACY LAWRENCE (Redding, CA) These guys worked together TIRELESSLY throughout the day Saturday and Sunday during the air show. The reason for writing this is to recognize 3 gentlemen that pitched in and helped me change out my engine and did not ask for a dime!! It wasn't about making a buck it was about camaraderie! These guys are among the BEST the L-29 group has to offer and I wanted to recognize them for their selfless contribution! This is what makes it so enjoyable to be apart of the L-29 group! Thank you gentlemen, Scott Douglass Reno, NV
