    Hugh, I am not at all sure that the FAA has any specs. for the ELT antenna and suspect they don't. They might have some performance specs for the ELT as installed but I doubt they have a prescriptive formula for how to accomplish it. That would be out of character for the FAA. I believe they just want an ELT installed and functional, and don't really care how it is done or whether or not the antenna is external or internal as long as it works and does not cause problems with other com/nav equipment, but can't point to a specific FAR that states that. Also, I think equipment requirements for LSA are regulated by ASTM Standards which I've read. To the best of my recollection there is no specific requirement for any particular type of ELT antenna in the ASTM LSA standards. Function over Form. Thom in Buffalo

    Subject: old style exhaust system
    From: "Thom Riddle" <thomriddle@adelphia.net>
    Two questions about Allegro Exhaust system. 1) Does anyone else (besides me) have an earlier model Allegro with the old style painted exhaust system that is NOT stainless steel? If so, what has been your experience with it? In particular have you had the two rear cylinder exhaust tubes crack and/or break? 2) Those of you who have the newer Stainless Steel exhaust system, have you had any problems with it? In particular, have you had any cracks develop in any of the exhaust tubes or elsewhere? Thanks in advance for all responses. Thom in Buffalo Fly Lite, Inc.
