47's

Hi Speechless,

Christ! you've had a time in the 47's!! Well for your information the 47 D1 I fly is based in Lancaster, Pennsylvania tail number N4250A.

I have just over 800hrs in this machine, and touch wood has never let me down!!, it handles beatifly. The only problem I have is that it goes through spark plugs like they are going out of fashion!! It has the 210 Franklin engine. So I find I'm cleaning the plugs every 25 hrs, and replacing them at about 75 hrs

If you find yourself over in the USA PM me and I'll tell you where I am.
Regards,

Darren
