OK, I know there is no 'right' answer but for those who may have done it or can give a good reason not to. I would like to do a full power run up on my used IO-360 before first flight.
It has been suggested that a 2 min run would be sufficient, and to that point I agree but this is an RV7... tail wheel.
What have other done to secure a tail wheel at full power for a 2 min run? Tied it up low on the rim of a car or tie down? No chocks in case the tail breaks loose? Etc?
