Hi Gerd,

     Good looking prop.  I hope you have your  Lightning flying and can give us some performance numbers when you get to SYI in  October.  Looking forward to seeing you and Uli again.

  

 Blue Skies,

 Buz

  

 PS:  Send Dennis Wilt (dwwilt(at)aol.com) some photos of your build  so he can put it in the Lightning Newsletter.

		  Hi    everybody,



at last my propeller has arrived. It is an Italian electric    CS Prop, 

made to my specs by GT propellers in Riccione, Italy.

68.5"    dia should work well with my ULPower 390iS. With a little more 

dia. this    prop might also be a good choice for the O320. Alessandro of 

GT told me a    Falco F.8 was 7kts faster after this prop was installed. So 

when you plan    for a Constant Speed prop this might be a good option.



You see the prop    sitting on my living room`s glass table. Uli didn´t 

object. So far.

You    can see the flange adapter that extends the spinner 4 1/2" /11,4cm 

beyond    the 55mm ULPower`s prop flange, so cowling installation should be 

a piece    of cake - no cheeks on this Lightning`s cowls!

The embarassingly    un-straight spinner paint is only the primer! It will 

give way to a very    white white, like the rest of my Lightning, and 

again, I plan to paint a    classical German black spiral on it.

Btw I requested and received a Permit    to reduce the size of my Marking 

letters from 30cm height to 18cm height,    which will make possible to 

make a design that is more than the mere    underlining of the Marking. 

Have I ever mentioned the we have a roaring,    yodeling bureaucracy here 

in Germany?



Presently I am at 700hrs    build time. When the new engine mount arrives I 

can close the firewall and    hang the engine, then it might be only weeks 

to completion.



Hope to    see many of you in October. Uli and I plan to come to SYI, we 

just booked    the flight.



Greetings from wet and stormy Hessen

Hi Gerd. This prop' looks great. Happy to hear you're progressing well with your build. With watch with keen interest for your flight testing and initial performance details.

Has anybody heard how Doug and Rhonda Guy are going with their UL390is installation?

Kind regards

Richard
