Hi All,
Am wondering if anyone can point me to some pictures of the Bob Berube
Conventional gear mod - more than what's on the Club disc. Looking for
more images around the hard points and attachment to get a feel for the
scope of the change. Any comments relative to the composite vs. Aluminum
gear are welcome - if anyone has been in both.
While on the subject, am finally beginning my electrics and wondering where
people are routing their battery cables - an upper corner of the tunnel?
Thanks for the help...

I have a slew of pixs which Bob sent me...unfortunately, I've only
saved them in an Appleworks file, and they can't get past the Matronics
gatekeeper. If anyone would like to review them, I'll send them
off-list upon request.
Cheers,
Fred

Ira,
I understand that but I do not have this book here. How does the effect
of the lower pressure on the exhaust vent compare with the effect of the
lower temperature of the intake air?

Hi! Cleve....
For my experience I'd put the batteries on the PAX footwell and use
multi-strand welding cable to the 3300 engine and starter. Keep it
shortest route and nearest(save weight and loss of starting boost), with
the six cylinders you will have two coming on compression together and
as ever you need to get one just over top dead centre before you have a
chance. I "fannied" about for 3 months on the basis of what people were
shouting for me to do (battery's in the back cables etc. etc.) until I
took the "bull by the horns" fitted two 13AH Red Top batteries in
parallel and I just changed them one 9 years old and one 8 years.
Together they put in excess of 800 hours in faultlessly (except when I
left the battery solenoid on for about 3 weeks!)
To be honest I only changed them when I awoke to the reality of the
Rotax 914(which I now have) needing battery power for it's fuel pumps.
Weight and balance was suited to the batteries being forward any way.
Regards
Bob Harrison. G-PTAG

Hi Bud,
Nice temperature. It's sub-freezing here in Paris. The question is how
to do some maintenance work on the airplane in an unheated hangar !
I am planning to attend SnF too.

P.S. It was 82 at the shop today. Wanted to turn the air on. <<<<<

Hi Remi,
Here is an excerpt from another book: Ojha SK: Flight Performance
of Aircraft. The basic bottom line is that engine performance is measured
and recorded in standard atmospheric conditions which includes
the temperature drop with altitude.
Power output is inversely proportional to exhaust backpressure.
It is a feature of all types of thermodynamic engine cycles.
