You are correct
I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has done light aerobatics in
their Glasair.
Anyone? Bueller?

| Subject: | Used vac pump FS |
--> Glasair-List message posted by: MPPalmer@aol.com
Before going to e-bay with this, thought I'd offer it to fellow Glasair
owners.
Long story short: We have a Sigma-Tek Gold Seal vac pump (Model 1U128B). I
thought it had failed. Replaced it, only to find, when I was upside down,
changing out the vac filter, that a hose had fallen off the A/I. Rats.
This pump has about 1200 hrs on it, and was going strong. (Warranty is 1000
hrs, and I've heard they go for 1800 if you treat them right.) This one has
been operated at prop speed of 2400 rpm, and suction set low, at bottom of green.
I replaced our first one at 1100 hours, just because it had more than 1000,
and we flew a lot of IFR back then. I hear that one is still flying in a
Cherokee 5 years later! I was planning on flying this one until it quit. But you
see....
Anyway, if you need a pump, I'd like to sell it for $100. I'll prorate it
quarterly for a year. That is, if it fails in 7 months, I'll give you back $50.
(I'm good for it, right Jack?)
If you don't fly much, don't fly IFR, and need a pump cheap, this is the pump
for you. (Even if you fly a lot in IFR... but you might be squeamish.)
Be advised that the ports are in a slightly different location than the
standard Airborne units, and depending on your installation, you might have to
shorten the fittings to clear the cowl. If you already fly with a Sigma-Tek, then
obviously, this is a simple swap. They're not making this one any more - in
favor of their $800 piston pump - so if you need a replacement Gold Seal for the
future...
Runs CW or CCW.
Let me know if interested.

I have..in a Glasair2S FT. I also owned a modified Pitts S2S with a 215 hp
engine that I flew in competition and airshows. The Glasair does nice rolls,
wing overs, and barrel rolls. Hammer heads are difficult because of a not very
effective rudder. I wouldn't advise spins. I would practice at 5,000 feet for
the first 50 hours. At that altitude you should be able to recover. If the
plane is tail heavy, you may get yourself into a flat spin..so be careful and use
a chute.
