This weekend my eight year old son and I flew over to Easton, PA to the EAA Chapter 70 fly-in. He was particularly interested in the RC Model air show. I flew in about a half-hour before the airport was closed for the event, and hopped out. Before I could even get out of the plane, people where coming over to ask what kind of plane it was, and what kind of engine. I'm continually amazed at how many people are interested in the engine.
I spend the bulk of the day answering questions about the Corvair conversion, and talking with a Corvair mechanic from Kutztown, PA. By the way, he says he has lots of engines and parts, and he's willing to sell core engines, if anyone is interested in the area. Contact me off-list and I'll give you his number and address.
I have about 92 hours trouble free on my engine/airframe and am loving it. It is actually getting faster, this weekend showing 130 mph indicated with an additional 100 rpm. I suspect the engine is breaking in. In any case, it is getting more fun every time I fly. I'm ready for some long distance flying before the snow flies.

Phil, the attention your XL attracts is well deserved. It's a great looking airplane.
