Vimy Update — July 2003 The NEW Propellers (and hopefully engines) Photo by John LaNoue............... Intrepid chief engineer, John LaNoue, has successfully installed (although not yet operational) a new MT propeller and Orenda engine. While progress is being made, the recent notice by Orenda that they are retiring from the aircraft engine business has caused considerable angst and frustration with the Vimy crew. Orenda, and its parent company Magellan Aerospace, are cooperating thus far in completing their obligations to the project and hopefully with their continued help, we will have the Vimy back in the air in the relatively near future. Stay tuned.....
