Keep on plodding along, in the same fashion Ron.  :thumbup:

For over two years now. We're all here, quietly watching and appreciating......  :wave:

   Gentlemen she runs!!  On air at least.

 


   She sounds pretty tight in spots yet but she runs. Yahoo!!! ;D ;D ;D

 
  Still along way to go before it is finalized but at least I know she runs.

Well done Ron I bet you've got a big grin

  :D :D :D :D :D :D

This is of great interest to me as i've joined the simplex owners club, but I cheated and bought a part finished engine.

 :D :D :D :D :D

Congrats on a great build

Thanks Rob.

   Stew, I've been following your Simplex thread on the other site. The pics are helping me quite a bit in seeing how things are supposed to be. Painting the frames on mine will come soon.

  Thanks for looking in.
