Hi, I am also a High School student doing SO. I am currently working
on the wright stuff too. I am also using Ray Harlan's Cruiser 67. I
am dealing with the same problem as Jim. I didn't buy a prop gauge,
but I built one myself. It's really confusing. I have no idea how to
work it. I am working by myself with my coach, but he doesn't know
much about the plane either.
