Had not been getting anything over any of the lists with the exception of the Aeroelectric list and thought I might have screwed up the sign up.

I am a 1500 hr pvt pilot & he i s a Marine F-18 pilot. Our questions are: 1. What are the advantages & disadvantages of injected vs. Carbureted? 2. What are the advantages & disadvantages of a constant speed prop.? Thanks, Bill Sent from my iPhone On Oct 7, 2010, at 12:00 PM, "Ed Anderson" wrote : > Test > > Edward L.

Injected allows finer tuning of the mixture, more balanced power between cylinders and is less susceptible to any injuction icing if the airbox is properly designed with alternate air. That is an advantage in clouds. Carb is cheaper, is simpler, uses lower pressure pumps, but needs carb heat plumbed. However I don't think a carb works as well for inverted flight, but not certain on that point. 2. Constant speed gives better power for climb by maintaining best power rpm. On the other hand it is heavier and much more expensive than fixed pitch. You would need to ask RV group as to which is better for aerobatics and for wt and balance on that aircraft.
