REFLECTOR: Fwd: Deltahawk

[NMFlyer1 at aol.com]

I gave JP a ration myself.   If you recall... I was "challenging" him to show 
me that the DH would actually fly out of my airport on a "normal" summer day. 

We loose a loose a lot of flatlanders out here  due to the high Density 
Altitude. Scott ( and others) can attest to this. 

I have to admit that I am a bit skeptical that his engine can safely lift off 
a loaded velocity from my 4300' runway at out summer 8500' density altitude.  
My doubts are based on what I have seen done in this part of the country, and 
not on deltaHawk's work. I'm impressed with what they have accomplished so 
far. If they can ever show me  the "money" at high DA, I'll make sure to plug 
their success. 

Personally I hope they succeed at their work even if it is too late for my   
project.   We need the engineering, foresight, and risk takers to propel us 
forward.
