If Derek Dyer of Digby, Vic, Fisher Celebrity builder/pilot, is on this site (or anybody who knows him) could contact me via PM I'd be grateful. I have 'hit the wall' with attempts to fit a TBI to my radial-engined Celebrity and need to pick his brains as to how he managed to accomplish it in his rig up. Tks in anticipation, cheers Riley

Slightly off topic, but I saw a radial RAA aircraft at Serpentine the other day with a 24 rego number. A small high wing.

 

I didn't look like a Rotec at a distance but it could have been. (No one in the hangar so I didn't enter).

 

Just found it unusual to be a 24 rego.........

You were looking at the Secretary's factory-built 1946 Funk. He pulled a Cont 85 off and self-installed the Rotec R2800 a couple of years back. Had you got a little bit closer you would have seen the most pretty mechanical constant-speed wooden prop ever. Dave reckoned the Aeromatic cost almost as much as did the re-power. I'm green with envy. cheers
