Is anybody interested in an all-expenses paid trip to Battle Mountain?

All you need to be is roughly the same size as Mike, fast and willing to ride the Soup Dragon...
Mike will be at Darley/Leicester if you'd like to have a chat with him about it there.

ICBA to start another thread, so I'm hijacking Al's.  Not long since arrived here, not much going on yet though Jonathan has reported that the Soup Dragon is:
a) Stuck in Customs
b) In Cincinnati
c) Which is closed for the weekend

This in spite of DHL apparently claiming they delivered to $HOTEL in Las Vegas for the team to pick up en route.

More Stuffs later, Stuffs fans...

USA customs probably could smell a whiff of Soup Dragon lighter fuel .
Tech Note :- Dragons always need a squirt of "Ronson" lighter fluid otherwise the AVGAS will not ignite 
Hence you often see clouds of grey smoke from the nose during  startup  . 
Mr Burrows may have forgotten to  flush out  the secret A and B fuel tanks before shipping from the UK ?
Look forward to your Battle Mountain reports and Mustang test drives ?

Indeed, some are nailed together on the wrong side of the Atlantic.
