Wing Commander Gordon Life is not simple anywhere. Probably less so elsewhere. ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:19:47 PM PST US From: "mike floyd" Subject: Commander-List: Re: Re: MR RPM Turbos --> Commander-List message posted by: "mike floyd" It fails to the present position in either instance. It would then be up to the pilot to control MP. using the throttle. ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 01:59:09 PM PST US From: Tylor Hall Subject: Re: Commander-List: Re: Re: MR RPM Turbos --> Commander-List message posted by: Tylor Hall Mike, Were you able to work in the intercoolers. When I was talking to Dick, he had designed the intercoolers to be under the cowling with a little scoop and the scoop for the oil cooler would be behind the firewall in the wheel well. Has that configuration worked out? Could an existing conversion add the intercooler and oil cooler? Those two thing would help keep the engine cooler? It is great to see those STC in hands that know what they are.

OK ... more questions. Hope you don't get annoyed, but I've been waiting for this news for years. Does the package use an updated EGT or TIT? (Don't get started on that thread again, lads.) I'm sure the STC would not specify a particular EGT or TIT gauge (so the installation leaves it to the owner's discretion) but am curious if Mr. RPM is advocating one reading over the other for the updated equipment. Thanks! Wing Commander Gordon Life is not simple anywhere. Probably less so elsewhere. ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 02:27:11 PM PST US From: "mike floyd" Subject: Commander-List: Re: Re: MR RPM Turbos --> Commander-List message posted by: "mike floyd" Yes the oil coolers have been moved behind the firewall. Works out well. No development of the intercoolers yet. The existing conversions could incorporate the oil coolers. Between relocating the coolers and cleaning up the ducting and turbo oil system it makes the engine compartments much easier to work in. ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 02:58:20 PM PST US From: "mike floyd" Subject: Commander-List: Re: Re: MR RPM Turbos --> Commander-List message posted by: "mike floyd" No the STC will not have an EGT or TIT system specified. No I have never discussed this with MR RPM. Both systems give you the same basic information, where is the engine operating in relation to peak temp. ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 06:33:50 PM PST US From: BillLeff1@aol.com Subject: Re: Commander-List: FW: SHV Incident/Accident Monday night MAR 20, 2006 --> Commander-List message posted by: BillLeff1@aol.com Right on John, it is one of my pet peves to get pilots to stay on the glide slope and land in the "Touch Down Zone", not go for the numbers!
