Hi all. When I was asking about the Bahamas in general... I think someone mentioned Cat Island? Joel maybe? I am thinking about planning a trip to the islands again to correspond to when I would be picking up the plane after the overhaul. Why not... I am already going to be down that far :D...

Hi all. On my last flight from visiting Mike in Savannah, I was playing with 65% power settings given the tremendous tailwind. Typically, I will keep my TIT between 1500-1550. I was flying at 7500 so using 24"/2400. In the range of 1500-1550 TIT, I was seeing fuel flow at 8.5-9 GPH. Is that...

Hey Carl. What am I missing here... There is a clearly stated warning to not go over 24" MP if less than 2400 RPM. Yet, the power setting graph states a 75% setting at 2400 RPM could be at 27" to 25" depending upon altitude. How can that be? At 2399 RPM you have to immediately reduce to...

Hi all. What has been your inspection/any service schedule for the hot shot? Specifically, time tables and actions. Thanks

Looking to do KLOU to that recommendation. There is 99% chance Atlanta will want to reroute me around the inner circle (at least) so I am thinking going around to the West and then into a good airport just South. Maybe 6A2? That looks nice. Cheap fuel. Thank all.

Hi all. Well, it is official now. Picked up the plane in WA and 17 hours, 5 snow storms, hours of diverting around the Rockies, -25 C temps, 17.5k altitudes on O2 to cross 14k ranges, we finally arrived in KLOU :) We took a lot of postcard like pics. Flew right beside Mt Rushmore. Flew over...
