Subject: | Who is "Matt Dralle" & What Are "The Lists"? [Please Read] |
Dear Listers,
Who is Matt Dralle and what exactly are these Lists? Well, I've been working in
the information technology industry for over 20 years primarily in computer
networking design and implementation. I have also done extensive work in web
development and CGI design during this period.
I started the Matronics Email Lists back in 1990 with about 30 fellow RV builders
from around the world. Since that time, I have added 63 other kinds of aircraft
related Lists to the line up and numerous other List related services such
as the Forums, Wiki, Archives and Search Engine just to name a few.
For flexibility and reliability, I have chosen to run all of my own servers here
locally. Other List-related systems include a 1 Gigabit, fully switched network
infrastructure, a commercial-grade Netscreen firewall, a Barracuda spam filter,
a local T1 Internet router, and a commercial-grade business T1 Internet
connection with full static addressing.
The computer servers found here include a brand new, quad-processor Xeon Linux
server for List web services, a dual-processor Xeon Linux system dedicated to
the email processing List functions, and another P4 Linux system serving as a
remote storage disk farm for the archives, databases, and for an on-line hard
drive-based backup system with 3.2 Terra Bytes of storage, soon to be upgraded
to over 6 Terra Bytes! This entire system is protected by three large, commercial-grade
uninterrupted power supply (UPS) systems that assure the Lists are
available even during a local power outage! Speaking of power, imagine how much
electricity it takes to run all of these systems. One month this Summer,
I had a staggering $1368 bill for electricity alone!
I recently upgraded all of the computer racking infrastructure including new power
feeds and dedicated air conditioning for the room that serves as the Computer
Center for the Matronics Email Lists. This year I added another rack to house
the new MONSTER quad-processor web system that didn't quite fit into the
first rack! Here's a composite photo of the List Computer Center before the addition
of the second rack:
http://www.matronics.com/MattDralle-ListComputerCenter.jpg
As you can see, I take running these Lists very seriously and I am dedicated to
providing an always-on, 24x7x365 experience for each and every Lister.
But building and running this system isn't cheap. As I've stated before, I don't
support any of these systems with commercial advertising on the Lists. It
is supported 100% through List member Contributions! That means you... and you...
and YOU!
To that end, I hold a List Fund Raiser each November and ask that members make
a small Contribution to support the continued operation and upgrade of this ever-expanding
system. Its solely YOUR Contributions that keeps it running!
Please make a Contribution today to support these Lists!

Hi Guys,
I remember reading somewhere years ago that when you reach 50, you lose
2,000 memory cells a day. I'm at a big disadvantage here, as I wasn't
born with that many to start with ;-)
Anyway, I'm going to send another Email shortly, as soon as I've
remembered what I was really going to say in this one.
Ah! No! - it's OK, I've just had a flash of recall ........
With all this chat about Birthdays and old flyers, I completely forgot
that we here in the UK can probably boast to have the oldest Commander
owner/pilot anywhere in the World.
John Houlder has owned a 680E, s/n 753-41, G-AWOE since August 1968 and
has flown it to many places around the World. He usually flies to
Samedan in Switzerland to put in some skiing practice at least once a
year. With a bunch of other owner/pilots, they sometimes set off in a
group, called the "Air Squadron", which has included a P-51 Mustang and
a Cessna Citation, to tour various Countries. I know they all went to
the US one year, South Africa another year, and Russia in another year!
He has evidently admitted that he has had to give up downhill ski-ing as
he becomes scared doing steep turns - but he is still IFR at 90!
Single pilot and there is no doubt about that as co pilot's control
wheel is removed, thanks to Doug Jacob, Authorised Service Center "Delta
Tango".
So, come on - any older or bolder over the pond or down under??
Those of you with the Volume 5, Number 1 issue of Twin Commander's
"Flight Levels" magazine, published in Spring 2000, can read more about
John and other people over here in the UK.
Best Regards,
Barry

Good Morning Nico,
I am not currently flying a Commander but I regularly
fly a Beech Model 18, a Piper Pacer, a Baron, my V35B
Bonanza and my Stearman.
On my last birthday, I turned seventy-seven.
There is a fine young man in upstate New York named
Johnny Miller who will be one hundred and one on
December 15th of this year.
He was regularly flying his Bonanza (IFR and all) when
he was ninety-nine.
John has not been able to get his physical passed for
the last couple of years, but he is still an active
flight instructor and does perform those functions
which are legal to do with his present status.
When I grow up I want to be just like Johnny Miller!
Happy Skies,
Old Bob
AKA
Bob Siegfried

Well, I got
to thinking about Jack Broome, but he is only 88.
http://aviationnow.com/avnow/news/channel_bca_story.jsp?id=news/mu2_020
6.xml
John S. "Jack" Broome of Oxnard, Calif.-based
Broome Ranches has been flying MU-2B aircraft for more than three
decades,
accumulating more than 2,700 flight hours in type. He first soloed in
1935,
later became a military pilot and airline captain, and he served on the
NBAA's
board of directors for 20 years. He owned and operated Beech 18s for 27
years
before buying his first MU-2B in 1973. He hasn't had an accident in 70
years
of
flying.
He has forceful opinions about the MU-2B allegedly
being unsafe. "Going back years ago, folks said the same thing about the
V-tail Bonanza, Learjets and Aerostars." He puts prime importance on
being
a competent, well-trained pilot. "People can get out of a Cessna 310,
legally step into an MU-2B and say 'I don't need any training.' Then
they
get
themselves into trouble." That results in accidents, which in turn,
drive
down resale prices and drive up insurance premiums.
"There are lots of good airplanes out there, but
this one will do 300-plus knots on 80 gallons per hour. It will also
slow
down
to 120 KIAS on approach. There's just no way to get into trouble with
the
airplane if you fly it by the numbers. For example, I don't use full
flaps
until I'm over the fence and slowing to final landing speed. I don't
want
any
surprises; I'm too old for surprises," he said.
Broome insists on undergoing rigorous recurrent
training and has high praise for Mitsubishi's Pilot Review of
Proficiency
(PROP) training program. "That makes the best pilots out of MU-2
pilots," he said.
A veteran pilot with thousands of hours in DC-3s,
DC-4s and Beech 18s, Broome claims that each of those aircraft was
considerably
more difficult to fly than the MU-2B. "I've had 'memorable landings' in
all those aircraft," he said, "but I've had no memorable landings in
the MU-2."
He thinks the MU-2B is a "pussycat' and he
wouldn't sell the aircraft unless he couldn't fly it. Now 88, Broome
still
flies his current MU-2B regularly.
Col. Frank Borman, the former Apollo astronaut, flew
three models of MU-2B aircraft during a 15-year period, accumulating a
total
of
3,500 hours flight time.
"They run very, very well and they're most
robust, built like military airplanes," he told B&CA. "It's a
solid, honest airplane."
Borman said he underwent FlightSafety recurrent
training yearly while operating the MU-2 and attended the
Mitsubishi-sponsored,
three-day PROP course. He believes other MU-2B pilots should do the
same,
but
that most just don't get enough training. "If you're a relatively new
multiengine pilot, if you lose an engine you'll have your hands full."
The Las Cruces, N.M., resident believes
that the recent pressure from certain congressmen to force grounding of
the
aircraft is totally unwarranted. "I don't understand the criticisms of
the
aircraft. It went through two FAA certification procedures, plus the
most
extensive flight into known icing approval I can remember."

If you own a Commander and don't receive the "Flight Levels" magazine,

Hi Guys, The attached photo is on "the net". Shown as EP-AGT, which was a 680FLP,
s/n 1643-31, supplied new to Iran in August 1966. Is shown as being with
the Civil Aviation Technology College, at Mehrabad Airport,Tehran and is worked
on by college students. But, does this look like a panel from a Pressurized
model?
Sir Barry,
Yes, the cabin pressure controller is clearly visible to the right of the pilot's
controll yoke column and the cabin rate-of-change (or cabin VSI) and cabin
pressure differential gauge are to the left of the column.
Allah is merciful.

Subject: | Commander part needed |
Hello,
I am in need of an idler arm pulley wheel and eccentric for the
right engine (the fan belt idler arm eccentric belt tightner) of the
Aero Commander 680 FLP I fly. The pulley bearing decided to come apart
10 minutes out of Oxford, MS last Monday. Actually didn't know it until
I got on the ground other than that the alternator wasn't quit taking a
load. I though it was an alternator or regulator problem.
Once on the ground I found two broken fan belts, and the pulley just
as "loose as a goose" on the idler arm. The idler arm pulley wheel part
number is: LW 10578. The wheel itself is for a two fan belt setup.
Anyone who may know where I can get one please let me know, I'm
based in Destin, FL. My email address is: hcourier@cox.net.
I must not know how to use this site as this is the second time I've
emailed a request to the site and didn't get a copy myself...which to me
means it may not have gotten out to folks. If this is a second "issue"
please disregard...unless you have the needed part.
Thank you,
Ray Mansfield
