be another BPA contest in Huntsville AL., It was allot of fun this year even
with the 100+ temp to put down the 2m plane and pick up a old 60 size and just
fly for fun. For me the joy was getting beat by Don Lowe try as I might not
to, the smile on his face the whole weekend was priceless. And of coarse
watching Jason put my XLT through a SLOOOOOOOOOOOW role down the runway very
low to the ground was great also. We (I) am not looking to replace my AMA
flying,it is just relaxing to break out an old design after the rigors of
practice and flying in the nats and just go fly and hang out not that flying
AMA isn't fun but the self imposed pressure just doesn't seem to be there for
me.</SPAN></FONT><FONT color=black><SPAN

w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Atlanta</st1:City></st1:place> came out in the
late 80’s and was designed for AMA or now Ballistic Pattern. Initially
mine was set up for a standard short stroke YS 60, Hattori pipe (627 I think),
and Rev-Up 11-7 or so. Eventually I went to a longer pipe setting and
higher pitch prop to cut back on noise. D&W (remember them) 11-9
wide. I still have a bunch. Same speed but less noise as the early
noise regulations came into effect. Home made soft mounts on the motor
as well. A Dean Pappas design. I do not think commercial ones were
available yet.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

around I remember trying to slow the plane down. Some people who were
much better at throttle management than I (I only had a two position throttle)
were able to make the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Atlanta</st1:City></st1:place> “work” in turn around. The
engine was changed to a pumped OS 60 long stroke, Hatori 650 pipe and full
length header. And, of course bigger props. Currently an Asano 11½
- 11½ sits on there. <BR><BR>I must have cleaned the engine out
before storing it. Last time it flew had to be around 1991 or 92.
I also took it apart earlier this year when I went over the plane. Took
quite few turns of the prop to get fuel through the pump and into the
carburetor but it started on the second backwards snap. Talk about
impressing the couple of guys at the field. It hadn’t run in 15 years
and started right away. Once the high speed needle was adjusted it ran
perfectly as well.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
