And re: rain, the plane is hangered. The thing that gets me is that I dont recall it ever being a problem until recently (over the last year maybe). I am going to do a few test flights and apply Gary's check and move the flaps small increments to see if that has an effect.

What were you seeing (numbers please!) on cruise and fuel burn as compared to your AA-5 rocket?

We flew for about 30 minutes side-by-side. The CS MT PRop makes a big difference on cruise and fuel burn. I want one. Gary ** ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 03:25:03 PM PST US From: brian sandberg Subject: TeamGrumman-List: N119ST Jaguar Sounds great. I'm reading through 7 months worth of teamgrumman digests an d eagerly awaiting my first flight in more than 8 months=2C the longest str etch I've gone since 1998. -Brian Subject: N119ST Jaguar From: teamgrumman@aol.com I've been working on installing the Jaguar cowling on 119ST for a week now. Other than the owner=2C no one else knows that 119ST was the plane I used for all of my original company testing. 119ST has had 6 different prototy pe cowlings=2C 3 different kinds of exit ramps=2C and 2 different versions of air intakes tested on it. I used 119ST for a year way-back-when to test a bunch of ideas. Check out pict 030.jpg. I also had the cowling that is now on N1976T on 119ST about 3 years ago. Maybe it's my familiarity with the plane or maybe that after installing 3 c owlings in as many months=2C but=2C this one is going really smooth. The t rim lines on this cowling are very close to the planes mounting flange. Th is plane has one shim (I got two responses from you guys on shims and dista nces to the spinner=2C thanks) on each of the top mounts and the distance t o the spinner is just a shade under 40 inches. It's got to be differences in bushings and mounts . . . . but=2C I digress. The cowling should be all trimmed up by tomorrow. The missing baffles shou ld be here this week also. Then=2C all the rest of the details. _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail is redefining busy with tools for the New Busy.

Straight and level at 4000 feet, we were truing out at 152 knots. He was running 2700 rpm, I was running 2830. I could climb with him, but just barely. Project X plane is next. I have a torque tube I'm stripping and getting ready for paint. It'll be Red. I've also ordered a windshield for Project X plane. The one that is in it is too bastardized to make fit right. As soon as 119ST is finished, I'll get started on it. -----Original Message----- From: Lawrence Massaro Sent: Wed, Apr 28, 2010 8:46 am Subject: TeamGrumman-List: Re: AG5B Jaguar So I gather from your response, the Project X plane will be using this pro p?
