I wanted to answer the question “Do I have a torsional vibration problem”. Ross Farnham gave me several company names that might be able to help. I contacted Kelm Engineering in Houston, TX. www.kelmengineering.com.

To my surprise the owner of Kelm Engineering is a pilot and the company had previously performed a torsional vibration survey on another aircraft. Kelm was quite helpful in getting my Glasair set up for the survey.

I posted this video discussing the how and why the survey was done, then gave the final results.
