Which other announcements have you thinking? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

How does all of that work out if there's no money involved? I wasn't planning on doing a lease or anything. The plane is owned outright so I was just going to effectively re-title or technically re-register it to the LLC Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Wait. Simply having the LLC own the plane changes from 91 to 135? Serious? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Some guys are good sales guys based on charisma. Others are even better when they deliver what they sell. My E has nothing either. I'll just keep hand flyingand wait to see how Garmins progress on the short bodies goes. I think thats the top of the line for anyone on a budget. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Thanks for the offer. I've got mine nearly new. But I'm fairly sure she tweaked the door. Its not noticeable until I started looking hard at it. Oh well. A battle scar on a 55 year old plane Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Honestly that was the most frustrating part. If I would have just shown her or told her it would not have happened. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

I took my wife flying for a dinner date on Wednesday last week. Great flight, good dinner, great evening in general.... Until we're back at the hangar. I asked her to put away the headsets back into their cases, onto the hack rack, and shut the baggage door. I went to close the sliding doors and come back to find her confused about why the door wont shut or open beyond its current spot. I thought it was obvious that to release the hinge, you needed to open it. It was not obvious to her. Got it situated today but thought I might should pass the tip.

That's enough to make a morning person hit the snooze button. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Shoot. Guess ill have to go flying again soon. [emoji41] Just making sure I understand. You're all saying not to trust the JPI until I verify? Trusting JPI should also not include the egt? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

No. I was just happy to have my own plane. Never checked into all the details like this. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Before I had Willmar reseal my tanks this winter, all last year I didn't tell JPI that I refilled. I'm guessing those high numbers were when I told it I didn't refill when we filled to 1inch under full to keep from leaking. I can't confirm the JPI is installed or calculating correctly but before this I havnt seen reason to doubt it Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

I haven't watched that closely. I tend to trust and then verify if something draws my attention. I'll start watching now. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

I can't say from top of mind. You're right my CHTs have always been very low. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

LOP? Most of my flights are short hops down low and i shoot for 150 ROP. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

I think they meant lite speed Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Have you ever had an issue where you were at peak temp and not able to lean the mixture? Appreciate the pics and feedback so far Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

I went back thru my photos of past flights and grabbed these JPI shots. Does this help with any insight? I did sign up for savvy engine analysis thus morning. Wondering if they will see any trends Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Yes, i dont mess with fuel flow until I'm straight and level, set cruise power, closed flaps. That's when I start watching temps as I lean to 150 ROP down low or 50 LOP up high. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Yes, CHTs have been similar. If anything its making more power. Dense cool air recently but it's been climbing like a boss, as good if not better than ever and airspeed is as good if not a hair better than before. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Honestly can't answer many of those questions. My concern stemmed from the abrupt change that was most noticeable last night. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

For the last year that I've been flying my E, cylinder number 3 was always my hottest and would peak around 1350 running 150 degrees Rich of peak about 12 gph fuel flow. The last two or three flights number two has been the hottest cylinder. previous two flights I was able to lean it out to around the same fuel flow roughly 12 gallons an hour as before but cylinder number two was peaking first at 1350. Tonight the plane was effectively full rich and running at 1350. Would this situation I described give anyone reason to look further or doubt the health of the engine currently? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Why not the 3100 then with those numbers? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

How salty will everyone who already paid for the upgrade be? Bad situation for them and Aspen Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Was thinking the same thing Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

I was just talking with my aspen guy about to pull a trigger. He's on spring break this week so I waited. Apparently that was a blessing! Likely confirms what I saw on a beech post earlier today that aspen was going to drop their new Max pricing at Sun and fun. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
