Re: South Central Fly-in Ok, so, barbecue on friday afternoon at 4r2. Then fly to T82 and overnight for a gathering for brunch on the 18. Is that the plan? Seems like If I can make it I'd be stopping at 4f2 anyway for gas and directions....

Re: WJF Friday 10/21/2011 AM Can the Langoliers get at you when you're up that high?

Re: Commander World here I come! Welcome bruno: climb to 10-12 thousand feet and you'll see 145 kits TAS easily. That's not exactly turtle territory. Have the Tail Mod in Vermont and you should easily see 150+ ktas. That's very good for only 210 hp. As time goes on you know you made the right...

Re: SuperStream Steve: That's exactly what's advertised, and quite a difference. With this mod we're closing in on that Vaunted Mooney speed.

Re: SuperStream I'm looking at page 5-42 of the POH. cruise setting power chart for 10,000. at 2200RPM as you increase MP every two inches, %HP goes up 4%. Pretty linear. At 34/2200 at 10K, stnd day your getting 67% of rated HP. Add two inches and you add about 4%, so i'm figuring 71% HP. I'd...

Re: SuperStream I'll have to try that power combo next time I'm out flying. How long did Jim take to smooth your tail feathers?

Re: SuperStream The cruise power settings in section V of the Pilot's operating Handbook. Was trying to figure out how much horsepower as a % you were using. They have power charts for 2400rpm and 2200 rpm. At 2200 rpm the maximum MP listed is 34". Don't know if Commander doesn't want you to...

Re: SuperStream Hi Steve: Congrats on your Mod. Was just wondering how'd you come up with 36" at 2200. All the charts I have for 2200 rpm, they have 34" as max. I like the quiet at 2200, but I get more vibration at 2200, so I use 2400. Louder, but smoother(I too have a three blade). The best I...

Re: 2011 Sedona Fly-In News And for the Turbocharged folks - get used to leaning for takeoff .. When hot and High the TC's will never spin up and make full power. Requires some leaning (per the POH) to be safe. Hmmmm, I was just in Denver last weekend, 95 degrees. Leaning when you're not...

Re: Clean 100 Octane Coalition Updates A lot of interesting alternatives out there. I like the 2 cycle delta hawk diesel engine, currently putting out 200 HP. they have plans for 300 hp and 400 hp diesels as well. they are testing the 200 hp version on an SR20 right now. Currently Jet A is...

Re: Gas Spring Door Stays I had mine installed last annual,so I haven't had them very long. I just got back from Austin, and at almost 100 degrees and plenty of humidity, these things are worth it. I cant get the door open fast enough after landing. Just pop them open and they take care of...

Re: Easa approved Any one here a Diver? Have you seen the machines they fill the diving tanks with?

Re: Easa approved Oxygen might be produced differently in Europe, I don't know. http://www.avweb.com/news/pelican/182079-1.html

Re: Easa approved Rob: O2 is O2, that's it. there is no difference between O2 for welding, medical, or aviation, it all comes from the exact same place. No humidity is added to medical O2 until it reaches the patient. The price for Medical and Aviation is much higher because they can. If you...

Re: Saint Louis Vacation hmmm, actually, like I said, never been.

Re: Saint Louis Vacation Jeff: Let me know when you're coming up, maybe we can get together

Re: Saint Louis Vacation Spirit is to the Southwest of the city. It'll take a ride to get to downtown. I've never been there so I can't speak about the FBO. I'd check airnav and see what they have to say about it. The Arch is located Downtown St Louis, and if you're gonna stay Downtown, the...

Re: Saint Louis Vacation kcps is within sight of the arch, real close to downtown. The FBO on the northside, Jet aviation, has a courtesy car, or you can rent a car there. 100LL is expensive there, You can fuel at Kcgi on the way op and down. stop by and see carl. you can get a CPAC discount on...

Re: New Member and New to Commander Darren: I found my 112TC in Utah. It had already had a fresh annual, but that didn't matter to me, I had to have an annual/prebuy by the factory. I offered to pay all expenses to get the airplane to the factory, and the price of the annual. If the factory...
