  1. Gawd I bring out the best in people...
  2. I may brong the fork tail...
  3. I say if Mike (201er)starts another thread we all defect to Beechtalk!!!!
  4. Where are you located
  5. I could do that one...
  6. Accutrack II and BI805 valve.....
  7. There are two ways to cool an air cooled engine.....Cooling air , Fuel, (rich mixture)... You should be able to move 16 to 18 gph through the engine, 0-360, at takeoff power , If only 12 or 13 there is a fuel issue , also make sure the probes are not GEM probes.....there is a programming solution for the GEM probes , but it doesn't work....The difference between the probe types , wire colors on the sensors ....I think one is red and yellow , and the other is red and white.... As far as fuel , If you have a fuel flow , make sure you don't have a fuel line bent beyond a 4 " radius.....also check the mixture and throttle arms reach their stops....
  8. I wonder the spin in the Beech was unrecoverable???? Nasa does do funky stuff to aircraft to test them.... Maybe rear CG ??? Also , why did he shut down.....
  9. If your plane is 64 or later , It should have a PC , if it does , you can add a unit called an accutrack II that will track one of two heading sources , I have one I will sell for about 1200 but you have to have the PC to add it too..... Putting a PC in an aircraft that never had it would be a big project , because the brackets to mount the vacuum servos in the wings would be a bitch to mount.....
  10. Does that include crew and fuel surcharge , and incidentals? if so seems like a great rate....
  11. A lear for 2500 is a 25 or 35 , and you can't put 8 people in one ....maybe 3 or 4 and crew..... The least expensive way to do this trip would be a KA200 and after all the costs and add ons , thats probably over 2000 an hour.... Not familiar with the route , but a KA200 is probably 290 KTAS at 22000 feet....burning about 700 lbs of fuel an hour, can be at 22000 feet in 16 minutes....
  12. Here is a real genius....
  13. Is the exhaust from a 63C the same as a 65C ..... Thanks...
  14. If it doesnt fly hands off , or slower than typical models , MSCs have the travel boards , My flaps were down 3.5 degrees , I set them 1 degree negative , it is a tad bit faster than it was....
  15. Its coming back!!!!
  16. Hey Scott, like my new Avatar??? (now that's funny)
  17. Thanks for the P.M. Scott , disappointed you didn't share it with the rest of the class..... Got a stick of Beemans?
  18. I have it , Ihave to locate it
  19. Say whatever you want , I have never had to replace one of them , and they NEVER leak water....
  20. Does on the wing of a DA40 in the community hanger count??????
  21. There was a new one on ebay , I think he is trying to get 600 if he didn't sell it yet.....
  22. Mike the Bonanza stalls very docile , Its definitely a Mooney thing....I don't fear the Bonanza stall as I do the Mooney , that being said , Im not practicing stalls in the Bo either....
  23. I'm pushing 800 and still feel I have a shitload more to learn , than I have learned already....
  24. Opposite rudder to the FLOOR , yoke full forward and level , power to idle , wait.......It took at least a full spin for the plane to start to "fly" again , and it was a slow recovery ....
