| Subject: | Coming Soon - The List of Contributors - Please Make A |
Contribution Today!
Each year at the end of the List Fund Raiser, I post a message acknowledging everyone
that so generously made a Contribution to support the Lists. Its my way
of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to show their appreciation
for the Lists.
Please take a moment and assure that your name is on that List of Contributors
(LOC)! As a number of members have pointed out over the years, the List seems
at least as valuable a building / entertainment tool as your typical magazine
subscription!
Make sure that your name is on this year's LOC! Show others that you appreciate
the Lists. Making a Contribution to support the Lists is fast and easy using
your Credit card or Paypal on the Secure Web Site:
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
or by dropping a personal check in the mail to:
Matt Dralle / Matronics
581 Jeannie Way

I would like to thank everyone that has so generously made a Contribution thus
far in this year's List Fund Raiser! Remember that its YOUR support that keeps
these Lists going and improving! Don't forget to include a little comment about
how the Lists have helped you!

I'd like some more meat on the 685 and/or the 680FPL. I know all the usual stuff
- how it needs a lot of rwy fully loaded, how the engines will ruin you etc,
etc.
But what I would like to know more about is real world operation etc:
1.What's the certified ceiling?
2. What can you expect the burn at 20K plus and 55%, 45%, TAS?
3. Do they all come with 322gal tanks or is that an add on?
4. Are cylinders etc plentiful and easy to get hold of?
5. How terrible is the Skydrol system? Does it run the pressurisation as well?
6. Any significant AD's?
7. They seem to have come with a few different engines ranging from 390hp to 450hp
- any particular one to avoid?
8. What is the difference between the 685 and the 680FPL?
Any experiences greatly appreciated.

Thanks Keith - look forward to it.
The reason I have an interest is of course firstly that it's a Commander, but secondly
because I have this obsession with long range. And 322 gals - if one could
pull back and get somewhere around 30gals total up high - would be very interesting.
I'm guessing, but that should possibly give more than 1500nm range,
maybe even more.

The site looks really good, guys. Let me know when it's in final stage, I'd
like to promote it on the facebook page. Hundreds of brochures, pamphlets
and other old marketing material has been uploaded onto the facebook page,
which really belongs to the TCFG. I have them on DVD, too and if it will
help I can make them available on my FTP server.
Let me know if I can be of help in any way.
Thanks,
Nico
