Steve,

Allow me to say, congratulations on the completion of your turbo Onex! I'm glad to hear you have your airplane up and flying and I look forward to hearing more about it! Please pass on additional information as you're able and let us know how things go!

Thanks for the report. There will always be some teething pains, but it sounds like you're on top of it. Congrats!

The video of the turbo test in the sonex is really impressive. They put a really aggressive prop on it. He adds full power and it goes right up to 150kts. I assume the onex will do even better
