Hey Phil and Jim,

 

Great issue! Thank you very much. I'll pop you guys a donation in January. I do all my website/magazine/forum donations in January so I don't forget any of them.

 

One suggestion: You have a lot of neat links to other content in each issue. Can you program those links to open in a new browser window? That way I can easily go back and forth between the linked info and your magazine.

 

Thanks!

 

Joe

Whew,

 

The  article concerning C&BP  FREAKED ME OUT.

 

OUR FREEDOM IS NO MORE!

Excellent....as usual!

Another great issue!  I really liked the nose gear article by LASAR's service manager, but would like to request one thing... the terms he used in the text don't jive with the picture!  I'd love to see a revised pic with notations to each piece he refers to in the explanation.  

 

The CBP story is indeed frightening and has been covered extensively.  I'm glad Congress has started to sniff around.  I didn't realize the victim in this case is also a Mooney owner/pilot!  I wonder why he was using the Cirrus for such a long trip vs. the Acclaim...

John Deakins would disagree with Phil Corman over his view of RPMs. Obviously something that can only be sorted out with a pay-per-view event.

 

But that's a very good publication.

interesting.  the article says to keep CHTs below 360.  I've been letting them get up to 380.  It also says to keep things at WOT whenever possible.

 

they also have an article about Patrick's accident.  

[KSMooniac]

380 is the reasonable soft limit

He didn't own the Acclaim at that time.

[KSMooniac]

Ah, that would make sense.  Maybe he upgraded so he could outrun the thugs next time!

Sold the Cirrus after this incident and bought a Mooney!!! Pretty smart guy, huh?

Thanks for the catch... We have revised the article... It is 380F, not 360!  I think we had Lycoming O360 on the brain.

On your suggestion... we create a PDF... and then everyone reads it from their browser... how do we force a new tab in that environment.  The FLIPbook version does open links in a new tab... go figure

Phil, Jim....Thanks for such great work.... again!

thanks for the update.

Isn't the Lycoming 0-360 also 380 degrees?

 

Edit: Oh wait, I get it. Wow, I'm slow.
