    You didn't ask if you have ever chewed out ATC.

    They said the airlift is about over. They are getting the roads open and trucks are more efficient than planes.

    I listened to Aviation News Talk podcast. They did a special edition on the relief effort. It is current as of yesterday. It had all the contact info and where to donate supplies.

    The one wheel is easier.

    If you use the paraffin lube, it will stay clean. You just have to do it before your trip.

    That's about it. Airforms doesn't sell a kit for your plane, They sell the baffles for a J. They do sell the individual pieces. About 60% will work on your plane.

    Completely hose it down with brake parts cleaner, remove the chain and wash it in solvent, then lube the chain with a paraffin lube, work it in, hang it up to dry, then wipe it clean with a rag. Use the same chain lube on the derailleur wheels. degrease all the sprockets. Then wash the bike with soap and water. dry it with a clean cloth and check that the cloth stays clean. Face it, your bike needs a good cleaning anyway.

    I had a procedure once and remembered the whole thing about a year later. My wife just had her thyroid removed. She described part of the procedure two days after it happened.

    You could pull the button and see if it disables the PC.

    I can easily get my road bike in the plane. The wheels go into the baggage, the frame goes in the front door. You need to completely degrease it first.

    No, that's kind of weird. You have to make them out loud.

    Yea, they have to set up a new project, Accounting has to set up accounts for you and the vendors you want to deal with. Purchasing has to arrange for the service to be performed. Shipping/receiving has to receive the parts and send them to the lab and then receive them back from the lab. They normally did this service for big companies like Intel or Raytheon who wanted to buy something from somebody who wasn’t in their system. It was easier to have us buy it than qualify a new vendor.
  13. N201MKTurbo
    Somebody, just needs to run the project. Do the fund raising, manage the vendors, deal with the FAA and get it done. So far Mathew P has been doing it.
  14. N201MKTurbo
    The company I used to work for would do that kind of thing. Meaning they would be the intermediary between you and the testing lab. Expect to pay about $5000 for that service. Maybe less.

    It is used as an air filter.

    When I was a kid I spent a year maintaining the radio system for Maricopa County. Mostly for the sheriff's department. I had a cop ID and carried a cop radio. About half the time I drove a county truck home. I was in every sheriff facility in the county. 95% of the deputies were the most decent hard working people you would ever want to meet. the other 5% OMG. I was afraid to be around them. That was in 1978. that was a long time ago. I have no idea what goes on there now....

    I remember when those were the coolest thing ever. Then there was LORAN, then there was GPS.

    The link above the chart.

    Here is the time current chart for an ETA 110-P10 breaker: https://www.relayspec.com/specs/053/D_110_111_e_030305.pdf
  20. N201MKTurbo
    If you connect the breaker to your power supply and set the current limit to the rated current of the breaker, it should not trip. The amount of current it takes to trip it is time dependant. to get it to trip you will probably need to go 20-30% over the rated current. These breakers have a bimetallic disk that you need to heat up. It can take a while if you are just a little over the rated current.

    There is a valve behind the panel that the tubing from the button goes to. You can trace it from the back of the yoke shaft. You can test the button by removing that tube and sucking on it. There should be no airflow through the tube until you push the button then there should be airflow. You can test the valve by disconnecting the tube and the PC should be INOP. It's possible they bypassed the disconnect valve when they connected the new turn coordinator.

    While silanes will bond to many things, I don't think it will bond to all the stuff we are trying to protect. I think these products have a polymer glue that glues them to most of these surfaces. The glue bond is not as permanent as the chemical bond where the silanes become part of the surface. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silanization At work we use the last paragraph under glassware.

    BTW, at the last IA symposium, I specifically asked the FAA inspector about the legality of using the Gates Belt as opposed to the Lycoming belt. He said according to the latest interperation of the regs, it was legal to use the Gates belt. So you don't need the $125 belt, you can use the $20 belt. They are both the same BTW, You are paying Lycoming $105 to put a stamp on it.
  24. N201MKTurbo
    The belts don't really stretch. The check is mostly to see if something has come loose. Every time mine has gotten loose, one of the mounting bolts was loose, or worn or something. In your case, I wouldn't be too concerned, but it would be worth pulling the cowl to check things out. I have seen the mounting bolts wear out, the bushings on the alternator mounting ears wear out, the ears on the mount wear out. Just take a look and make sure everything is nice and tight.

    I have experts on silanes at work, who have explained it to me too many times. I have seen the results in action. It is cool stuff. I could tell you way more, but I shouldn’t. The bonds are strong, but it won’t bond to everything.
