    Darin, The warning and alarm limits for 914 EGTs given by Rotax in the Flydat manual are 880 & 900 degrees Centigrade respectively. Mine usually run around the 700 mark with the rear pair being perhaps 60 deg hotter. 880C. is 1616F, and 760 is 1400F so you haven't exceeded limits but seem to be running hotter than I do. But on the other hand if you are just doing ground runs you aren't getting much in the way of cooling, & new engines also run relatively hot until they have polished all the rough surfaces off a bit.

    Hi David As a matter of interest do Rotax publish a limit for turbo inlet temperature and do you monitor it?

    Hi Pete Rotax allow a max inlet temp of 72c (160F) or 88c (190F) depending on the serial number of the TCU, I have never exceeded 50C so far with normal cruise being about 35C Regards Ivor Subject: RE: Europa-List: 914 EGTs - Normal and Max.

    Subject: Second Annual Europa Fly in
    Hi All, I noticed a few questions on the list regarding the second US Annual Europa Fly in. For those who missed the first email from Jeff and I here it is again. If you are planning on attending please let myself or Jeff know and we will keep a "Running List" published on the forum. Jeff & Paul <paul.the.aviator@gmail.com> --> Date: Sun, Apr 27, 2008 at 9:14 AM Hear Ye, Hear Ye, Hear Ye Be it known throughout the land and across to far shores that the second Annual Europa Fly-in will be held in the Hamlet of "Falls of Rough" on the very days of September 6 and 7 in the year of our Lord 2008 ________________________ Hi all, Jeff and I have been working with the management of the Rough River Resort and have found taking into account regional fly-in dates and accommodation availability that the best date for this years event is the weekend of September 6th and 7th Rough River is part of the Kentucky State Park system with its own airport (2I3), camping facilities and a lodge, which is walking distance from the airport. The lodge has both rooms and cabin style accommodation. Rough River offers walking trails, fishing, beach, golfing and a large marina that has rental craft of all sizes available. At the time of writing the resort has four two bedroom cabins and twenty single rooms available. I would encourage anyone who is interested to book early as accommodation fills quickly. For more in Rough River take a look at http://parks.ky.gov/resortparks/rr/ http://www.roughriverlaketourism.com/acc.htm http://www.airnav.com/airport/2I3 For reservations call 800-325-1713. Please let me or Jeff know if you are contemplating attending. It would help us better plan the event if we had an approximate head count. Paul can be contacted on paul.the.aviator@gmail.com Jeff can be contacted on topglock@cox.net Paul McAllister & Jeff Behrnes

    Sad for me to report that N224XS and I will also be MIA from Airventure this year. I will be taking the week to finish off my IFR rating with hope that this will increase the odds that I can fly-in next year. Safe passage, good wx, and good hunting for goodies to all at KOSH -------- Ira N224XS Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=192830#192830

    Jeff, Maybe you should get a clone. If you find a method of pulling that one off I would be interested!! I also have more than I can do on the back 10. Therefore I will not be at air venture this year either. I will however be attending with Gold Rush the Rough River fly-in in Sept. Looking forward to it!! Regards, Jeff R.
