          Tony,There are quite a few of these flying around. I had one on my RAF after the existing one cracked on the way to Temora. The locals at Wollongong airport thought it sounded the same as the original which was very quiet. It did sound a bit noisier in the cabin though but not too bad.I can give you Cliff"s number if you like as he does a beautiful job and can make them to a drawing and you"d just need to arrange pickup from Nowra.Hoges

                  Price is now negotiable as I have been catching up with completing this machine. Hang test and centre of mass/thrustline testing is almost complete and is looking good and have had some good engine and prop "runups".Thrust tests will follow soon and will post results.New 30" rotors are on the way.Hoges

                      Mast assembly is now finished and new rotor blades and teeter stops have now been fitted and engine runups are going well (see previous post for link).Price has now been adjusted to sell.$25,000-00Getting close to test flying but still requires a fair bit of work and TA inspection to complete, and a new 72" Ivoprop Magnum ($1,400 US, plus freight)Hoges
