| Subject: | Value of the List... |
If you look forward to checking your List email everyday (and a lot of you have
written to say that you do!), then you're probably getting at least $20 or $30
worth of Entertainment from the Lists each year. You'd pay twice that for a
subscription to some lame magazine or even just a single dinner out. Isn't the
List worth at least that much to you?
Won't you please take a minute to make your Contribution today and support the
Lists?

during this year's List Fund Raiser!! These Lists are made possible exclusively
through YOUR generosity!!
Thank you for your support!

HI KIDS.? I might suggest that all of yall with vent heaters contact John Towner.?
He has an "approved into known icing", (which the fuel vent heaters are not)
STCd fuel vent protector that installs in just a few minutes, just in front
of the vent and eliminates the need for the troublesome electric units.? jb

Dan,
?
Thanks for the advice!? My fuel vent heaters?spliced into the air speed indicator
wires.? Load shedding seems to be limited to pulling the circuit breaker or
turning off the switch, except the stall warning horn, and it is hot wired.

This is so easy.? Turn on the master switch, turn on the pitot/fuel vent heat switch
now take about 2 minutes then put your lips on the vents like you were to
suck a straw.? Be sure to do this before you suck on the pitot tube.? Otherwise
your lips will be burned so bad you will never be able to feel the slight
warmth from the vent.? If you really do this you deserve what you get.? In all
seriousness, my vents are always quite warm to the touch in about 30 seconds
after turning on the heat switch.? I seriously doubt that airframes of this vintage
and size have load shedding.? In the 1960's I don't think Boeing or Douglas
was using auto load shedding.? I think it was called a flight engineer.? CHECK
ESSENTIAL!!!
