I mean if you guys found 50,000 bucks of stuff wrong with the plane then I think the pre-buy was the best money You ever spent because you get the seller to buy that instead of you. Please send me the rest of it by PM I want to read it as well I'm always learning.

I think they're supposed to be blue these days. How does that much left cause A fuel pressure interruption? Because even if the strainer is completely stacked full it will slide back against the spring and bypass it anyway

How in the living hell did a pre-buy cost $50,000? I mean I've seen $3000 prebuys and the list of repairs that were substantial but how do you spend that much money looking at something?

We have had great luck matching matterhorn white with Nason 2K Fullthane "Beck Peterbilt white".

thanks for clearing that up !

nice paint.

Thanks for clearing it up. Lycoming permits AD oil for turbo engines.

Until you crash your plane that costs 100,000 bucks plus to fix it. Insurance is there for a reason, it's a rip off, but is there until you crash a plane that cost 100,000 bucks plus to fix it. Insurance is there for a reason, it's a rip off, but is there

That's the dumbest shit I've ever heard on the Internet and I read a lot every day. Stick to the theoretical stuff you can't kill anybody with that.

It shows the winds on a page, but those are forecast winds, and I dont think it interpolates and applies those at the macro level.

if the navigator doesnt know the winds aloft, you have to know them and make the adjustments above, and also factor in your range wont be as much upwind, and more downwind. This matters too.

I think continental allows for ashless dispersant oil. Just get the permission of the person who overhauled it and he's going to warranty it.

Yes and you need to name MAPA safety foundation on the policy iirc

That looks like great advice

OK. The stock airplane is 2.2 nautical miles per 1000, what's your number? There is no doubt it's better. I just don't think it's on the order of a third. I'm guessing 5%.

Yes, the short term transient effect of pulling the prop full aft then full forward is dramatic, but I'm saying the stabilized condition is a smaller difference than you might think. My guess would be about 5% I guess you wanna go to 10,000 feet and measure the distance and then do it again you could figure this out

The oil leaks out of the transfer bearing at the front of the crank, it's not open loop per se, but let's just say that the governor pressurizes oil into something that's pretty leaky.

The range ring will get bigger when you pull the prop control because you turn the rotational energy of the prop into thrust, after it stabilizes, I have no doubt you could glide a little further but it's not as much as it initially seems to be. I don't have any data here but if you add 5% because of less drag you're looking at another .11 miles per thousand. From 10,000 feet, perhaps another mile. A similar thing happens if you watch the fuel and time and destinations and then you move the prop from 2500 to 2400, initially it shows you save a gallon or two but then over the course of the next five minutes or so it settles out to where it takes another 4 minutes to get to the destination but the fuel remaining is only a tenth more of a gallon.

yep yep

RS232 to the navigator. Although they sold it as having two way flight plan transfer, it wont.

are you sure?

Hopefylully they don't sell the rights to Extant. They have the Integra R9 series stuff now. And a broken knob is a 29k flat rate screen repair.

I think prices are going to head down somewhat, but Vref is kind of laughable at least lately. We went to up our insured value on our plane to 160K, and the insurance lady said that it would only Vref for 108k.

Socialized losses, but privatized profits

That's what we get when we roll back some key parts of the Dodd-Frank law.
