Cross post from our flyrotary group last week.

Please excuse me if this is old news, but our EAA983 Chapter visited GAMI and Tornado Alley Turbo on Sat in Ada, OK, and they related that the Mistral rotary is going to spend several months in their test cell validating lots of different aspects of the design. It is due to arrive in mid June.
I, for one, plan to visit again in August to maybe watch this baby run flat out under load. If you have not seen their hi tech test cell(s), you are in for a treat. (See attached photo) I vote we descend on them with a batch of rotary-powered aircraft!
President Tim Roehl said that if we give him a call and set up a visit, we would be more than welcome.
They have a VERY impressive facility which does lots of different types of engineering, but the most famous are the GAMI injectors for the piston folks, and at this point, over 525 twin turbo packages for the Cirrus factory for their G3.

The OKC chapter visited last year and am very impressed with their facility. Just out side the window in the picture are stands for 2 engines and they can monitor just about any parameter that you can imagine. When we were there, they had a turbo engine on one of the stands and ran it up for us. They turned out the lights and you could see the turbo turn red hot under certain conditions. They showed the inlet temp, outlet temp, case temp, oil temp, and probably a couple more that I can't remember.
