Well it may be more for Crank snappers, but I just finished the first reading ofthe Flight Operations Manual William Wynn sent be.though I stubbornly ploddedalong without it through my first flights after being suggested by some thatI should get it. I am a true tightwad! Mr. Wynn gave me a call after some discussionson the flycorvair site and we had a long and great visit over the phone.he insisted on sending me a manual and did so. I am impressed with the knowledgeand stories from numerous builders in there and it covers so much morethan Corvair issues.great guidance on how and why to do certain things on eachflight and how to inspect and proceed to the next one.information on oil temperaturesand pressures, fuel systems and carburetor types and the problems theycan give.I will read it again.
