Well, sort of. The first manual I used was for our old tractor and it didn't have a section for a wiring diagram. Actually it did, but it just had one small diagram showing the two spark plug wires going to the magneto. Trouble shooting was easy, either the two wires were plugged in ..... or they weren't -

What is a good fair price for an used Q300. It has maybe 6K miles, getting my new HKS exhaust today and I'll be selling the Q300. Figured I'd get a more coherent response from you. Perfect condition, no dings or rust.

Dude. The housing bubble in China is not news. It's been that way for at least a decade. You are very late to the party.

Meh... He flew it hard trying to gain altitude all the way down. 10/10 effort

Looked more like the pilot was trying to bleed speed as opposed to gaining altitude.

It isn't lost. They will fix it. They have pulled them out of the ocean after 40+ years and got them flying again so an hour or so won't hurt it much.

Yea, that is exactly what he was doing, bleeding off speed. The pilot made the right choice.
