Sam M. Unregistered	Posted Thursday, January 15, 2009 @ 00:15 AM Hey guys, This is my Dad Zoom climbing his 450 stearman. I bet the fournier could keep up uh? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iy3rZMMy5_I&feature=channel
Donald Unregistered	Posted Thursday, January 15, 2009 @ 05:39 AM Very good Sam. I'm not sure the RF4 could keep up in the climb but I'm sure it'd be off the ground way quicker than the Stearman. Looks to take around 20 seconds. Is that right?
eugenio Unregistered	Posted Thursday, January 15, 2009 @ 07:23 AM One thing I'm sure, if the engine shut off with the RF4 you can have a long glide, with a Stearman not. Eugenio

Jorgen Unregistered	Posted Thursday, January 15, 2009 @ 06:24 PM Well Sam, you´ve grown up around hangars so you´ve heard'em all: "There´s no substitute for horsepower", "Radials don´t leak oil, they only mark their territory", etc etc Sometimes you just have to acknowledge facts- you can´t have just one aeroplane! There are for example what- 16 different Fourniers? Take 5(b) just 4 fun/ Jörgen [Edit by Jorgen on Wednesday, February 11, 2009 @ 04:11 PM]
