Curtiss-Wright R-3350 32-WA, Radial engine (Sternmotor)

On Thursday the 18-th of June, we started our engine again on the yard from Hans-Werner Bogie with very special thanks.
An editor and a photograph from the famous magazine "Oldtimer Markt" visited us, writing a report about this Curtiss engine. Piet de Haan used this favorable opportunity for calibration of the carburetor. We are working hardly on a prop and we will hope, fixing the blades this year. But don`t worry, engine didn´t run too hot, because we are watching CHT and oil temperature during the runs and they never exceeded a critical temperature. Our only problem was a low oil-pressure, so I have to adjust it next time.
