Whose knocking the Turbulent ?

I went from 747-300 to Turbulent in one fell swoop, removed the poncey canopy that had been fitted and bought some goggles - magic. My only gripe is having to hand start a 45 yr. old 1200cc VW Beetle engine, been trying for 8 yrs now, always manage to, but never really know what I did right that time, usually resort to squirting 20 ml of Avgas straight into the carb. - with a fire extinguisher close by ! No prob. with the 172 or 152, but find the 182 needs a cushion.
