Calling all Bower users ...
Have any of you done (can't find on search engine here) a ground based "operational" test of the system with the inlet plugged & and the aircraft restrained from moving with an engine run up?
Tie the airplane down (TW stinger to pickup bumper + chalks), plug the inlet, start the engine and increase power to system's maximum performance, or the max static RPM generated from ground runs.
Record & Report ...
Thank you - HFS
I have a slightly different system (home grown) on my Rocket, but I plan to do the same with it.
