What do you fly by the way (C/L. FF. RC, etc) ? Raced for a while till
my caller called it a day.

On ether, could happen.

I just assumed that anyone smart enougah to get a license to fly would
be smart enough to not over do a good thing G

Lots of suggestions. Here are more.

1. If I had to RON in cold country, paid for a hanger.

2. If parked outside, pulled engine through a dozen or so times.

Then
gave the intake a shot or two of ether and cranked. When ether

fired
engine would start running and you could then warm up normally

prior
to take off.


Friend of mine knew a chap who administered an excess of 'easy
start', (ether), blew the manifold and battery out the side of his
car. Something simmilar may happen with your favorite aircraft if
given too much.
