Ack...city life
These two guys dropped in for a fuel stop. Dan Williams happens to be based at Santa Paula, an area I know well. Nice guys.
The engine is a Walter...a Russian knock-off of the PT-6. 750 SHP.
Two questions for y'all: (If you know, don't answer just yet please.)
#1: What is the function of the "hockey puck" on the main gear leg?
#2: There is a hollow tube running into the aft end of the canopy but ther is no opening to the exterior of the plane. A gas runs through the tube. What is the tube for?
