I guess this means you're not in Arizona right now 😁 81° high today.

I'm in a hanger and use a GSM switch to turn on both the engine heater and a small heater in the baggage compartment. I have the heater on medium setting and the thermostat on it is set to about 80°. I have a gadget that I made up that allows me to drop the cord out of the baggage compartment...

I tried to save the link so I could watch it later and it wouldn't let me do it cuz I'm not a kid.

If you try to watch it on YouTube it comes up as content made for kids?

Carbon Fiber?

When I'm up in Show Low the temperatures will drop below zero. I have a setup that preheats both the cabin and the engine but I always wondered about switching to lithium in those conditions.

Has there been any improvement in cold weather performance with the new one's?

Had to log back into send this to you but other than that I can get into the thread. Notice that this shows that I'm logged out but all of these threads are available to me.

No it wasn't just titles I could actually get into the threads. I guess the best way to do it would be just log out so you're not in as a member click on new posts and a message pops up telling you that you are not approved to view this I don't remember the exact verbiage but as a part of that...

I will renew but it does trouble me that if non-member comes in and clicks on new posts they will see nothing but if they click on the show recent activity which comes up as a part of that they can get anywhere that they want on the website. Why would they pay for membership

Ok I guess its my turn -cant access any content. Didn't get any kind of expiration notice. Checking my account doesn't show me an expiration date. Very weird - it won't show me any new posts but if I click on check latest activity It allows me to see things that should be behind the firewall...

Congratulations - good luck with the plane and welcome to the group.

Sounds like a long-term commander owner. You would expect someone like that to understand the value of COG and be a member. I am surprised. Thank you for the info

I don't know why anyone wouldn't be a member but there are a whole lot more commanders than there are COG members. Chains are pretty common out west. We typically don't worry about rust and the sun rots ropes pretty quickly. I carry my own straps with me rather than use the chains.

The database shows this as belonging to AMES THOMAS E from Yuma Arizona. I don't know if he's a member?

On the TC and TCAs the gate is manual and I need to adjust throttle position as I climb to maintain manifold pressure. If I'm not careful with my throttle positioning It is pretty easy to overboost. I thought that one of the benefits of the turbo normalizer was that you could just go full...

I was under the impression that the hotshots used in automatic wastegate. The TC and TCA's use a manual wastegate. Pretty sure I'm correct on this one. Don't have a lot of experience with lean of peak though.

Really sucks - get better soon.

Congratulations and welcome to the group and airplane ownership.

This is not commander related but I happen to be in a position to film this today. Seem like a once in a lifetime for me. Never been that close to be able to get filmed before...
