    Subject: Re: A question about post curing?
    I postcured whole plane just before painting. It was 8 hours @ 50C. I heated my 200 cubic m shop using 20kW gas heater w fan and one 11 kW electric heater w fan. I was there all time long just to control temps (it was like very mild sauna). It was still quite hard experience because those gas burners took all the oxygen away.

    Curiosity question. Has anyone had a failure where the only way you could keep 914 running was by Europas schematic that has you wiring fuel pump #1 direct to generator? Thx. Ron Parigoris

    Hi Ron, My pumps are wired as per the Europa drawings. As I recall it has one of the connected to the output of the regulator... I need to check again for the exact details. Anyhow, getting back to your question, yes, when I took a lightning hit the main contractor dropped offline and all of my electrics with it. I did not turn on my E-Buss straight away, I spent a good deal of time deciding how damaged the aircraft was, from a structural and flight control perspective. Only after this did I turn on my E-Buss, so up until then I was running off one fuel pump which was powered directly from the output of the regulator. So, I guess this is a long winded way of saying from a redundancy perspective the system worked as designed. I did see a number of postings from you on the AeroElectric forum, my only recommendation I can make to you is to keep it simple. I have a single battery dual electrical buss in my airplane. Never in my imaginings did I consider if the design was robust enough to take the punishment that was handed out that day, but it was. Regards, Paul
