Thanks fellows for the info

Looks like an air restart is out as the prop will stop turning if the engine quits in flight? Right?  So I would need an electric starter. 

However double the glide would be very handy as my plane drops like a rock

How bad is the vibration at idle?

I have no relatives in Kansas City but I was born there.

Mike, I lived in the Seattle area for 28 years. Lovely place to fly when the sun is out. The "C" gearbox on my 582 has 4.00 to 1 gears and when the engine stopped so did the prop. I can't say if the 2.62 or 3.00 gear set would make a difference, but I doubt it.

 Even though my 582 has an electric start, I restrung the pull starter so I could pull it from the cockpit (the Mk III has a pulley bracket to redirect the rope and a loop to hold the handle built in so it was easy. Should be a relatively easy project to adapt to the FS II.

 Where do you fly out of, Arlington?

 If the starter rope is routed right, you may be able to pull start it from the seat (I can on my UltraStar).
