Posting for a very dear friend;

RV-7 Tobias Treichel, RV-6 Peter Grievner and Herbert Fluck, RV-7A Klaus-Peter Morhard.




And if all the salty food this weekend didn?t make you thirsty, this short and very fun video of Herman in his imaculate RV-8 will for sure!

Please enjoy and give a thumbs up to our friends in Germany!

The man has good taste... it looks like a Warsteiner Dunkel.

Cheers, Hans

I'd like to see the out-takes for that video.

And what engine is in that RV-7A? Something inline, presumably?

Hermann is sending me some more video, but he?s not one to bore you with extra footage.

So what LOM engine is this?

Do you have M332C supercharged version:

It would be great to have performance numbers of the LOM powered RV from Deutschland, compared to Lycoming 320 or 360. .
