Hi Guys, have just come back from flying 4473. I had 30 minutes in the circuit checking controls and instruments etc. I feel like a kid in a lolly shop and will most probably sleep with a ear to ear grin tonight. All appeared to be OK except revs around 5000 created some vibration which I'm putting down to a blade being out of sink to the rest. The rebuild took 7 months and was completed with the help of many people will read this thread. Thank you all from not only me but from my kids and wife who believe without wings Im unbearable to live with. I have kept a folder from all those kind people who sent best wishes, technical support and even parts. Your names will all be placed onto the engine cowl to display my appreciation to you all. Each time I fly you will fly with me.
Kind regards to all
Graeme

Thanks Rex, I still cant believe that brain teaser you sent me. It made me a bit concerned about my IQ rating.
Regards
