One of the new crew members, Shawn, works with my son-in-law at the skunkworks... We'll have to quiz him on the project!

Ya know, a certain 'little' ex-communist trainer (with the initials of CzechMate) has done AMAZING things with an R2800! Who knows, with a 'purpose-built' airframe wrapped around one of those jewels, i think we'll
be pleasantly surprised! With a skilled flyer like DM herding her around the barrels, i, for one, CAN NOT WAIT!

Re: News on wildfire
Is it licensed experimental, or experimental exhibition? The former will require 30-40 hours of test time prior to leaving its home airport. Maybe 20 if the prop/engine combo are certified. The latter would allow "repositioning" flights that avoid populated areas.Rutan Long EZ, N-LONG
