Yep, a beautiful location. Also a location where a friend of mine died in a SC wreck on the strip in the mid 90's. One of those bitter-sweet locations for me...
Nitro: sorry to see your...
I flew the upper cook inlet/Knik Arm, to Parks Highway yesterday evening. Flew all the little drainages and floodlines. Seemed either the beaches or the south facing flanks of Chugach ridge lines...
Anne, there has to be more to the story...
Thanks for sharing. Good story and reinforcements for everyone.
Atlee makes nice side cowls. You need to 'roll' the aluminum to fab the sides, I found buying much easier. :) Atlee can even make them to fit following a 0 thrust line mod.

The umbrella policy is probably the best suggestion, from SteveE, as Cliff is concerned from a variety of potential suit sources and not a plane incident. If you had sufficient insurance, suiters...
Bofusfly, seems the group is more into looking for a discussion than answering your request since they have diverted to other topics. :(
Back to topic: anybody know of a shallow turn...
I've 50 hrs on a new O-340 built up by Lycon. I'm turning a 84-42 pawnee prop and Atlee hotrod exhaust. Nice set-up. Great power and efficient cruise. Fuel burn & speeds are better than the...
I use 87 for the extended baggage.
Great. :) It is amazing the obstacles and hurdles he has overcome while making this trek. The trek itself is a huge accomplishment. The challenges he met and surpassed; all just emphasize his...
Peterson STC allows auto fuel in 160 hp engines, but requires it be high octane, not just plain unleaded.... I think octane above 90.

That's cool. Looks like a camera mounted scope? any ideas on the set-up?
hmmm, :roll: not all improvements are improvements.
A for effort though.

pBase is a good site and passes the company firewall. It's not free, but is cheap. Seems to be well supported from my novice perspective. Great for backup of pics if nothing else.

For cruise, I'm running 7.5 gph, 2400 rpm, 1350/350 temps, 85 mph with 35's & thrustline.

I've never had a Lee's, but Atlee's is hotter than stock. And Atlee's is hot enough that I'm concerned it could melt my windshield. I don't think you will be disappointed.

I thought....:nutz:.. ECI stopped making the 7/16" option as that was my original plan going in. Maybe it was Lycon that just stopped building that option.... :pop:. I'm happy with the Pawnee...
Lycon has a good reputation also.
And start at the beginning, the very beginning of the strip....
I'm running the 340 in my exp. It's still in test mode with just 20 hours on it. It has no problem spinning up a pawnee pitched at 42. It was built-up by Lycon. Much better torque and thrust than my...
Some parts just have to look PMA'd. ;-)
Have one made up and keep moving forward.
I got my 340 from Lycon earlier this year. It was ahead of my need and ready when agreed. They are busy. The good point is they try to keep a quality product by maintaining level number of staff. ...
Yep, sacrafice a wrench. Bent it about 30 degrees and it woked much better. Also more turn per stroke, so to speak....
Thanks for sharing Laura.
I'm sure the SC.org community can increase the awareness and energy!!
