He is a Russian engineer with a US A&P, Unlimited pilot and instructor and knows the Sukhoi/Yaks well - he does Annual Conditional inspections on them. I heard Smash was looking at a beast like this in TX - is this the one? I have my doubts you can properly bolt the short wing on a longwing fuselage - but Nik would be able to better answer this. I guess the better question would be...Why would ya? I flew Unlimited with Smashes Longwing...

The engine has about 35 hours since major and the plugs are clean. I have been running a mix of Auto and 100LL but had the same problem with straight 100LL . What can I do to stop the dieseling?
