    While are on the topic of heat muffs, does anyone know where I can buy one (or two!) for a Jabiru 3300? I've not found a supplier who has them. Thanks, -Carl.

    Carl, If you want one which will fit on the pipe coming out of the muffler instead of one that goes on the muffler and spans a possibly leaky weld (don't ask), you can contact: sales@aircraftexhaust.net They can supply one of almost any size. I now have one which I took off the muffler but can't really recommend it for anyone.

    Subject: Withdrawal from the group
    From: "Float Flyr" <noelloveys@yahoo.ca>
    About two weeks ago I had a major fire here. Caused by, so they say, a faulty extension cord. For the time of being I am going to withdraw from all my aviation lists within the next few days. I hope you all continue to post and fly safely.
