I loved this. Better than an EAA article. I really liked the woodwork and finishing on the floor and kick panels. Several real cool tips on this site for corrosion protection and great tongue in cheek digs at the builder's manual "... for the life of me, I don't know why Skystar says that!" Got a kick of his getting started comments - "quit watching my favorite TV shows..."

The Ellison unit says it does. I installed a carb temp gage just to track. I think the unit that has been discussed for the 912 might be a good idea. However, some real world testing is in order. Say Tom how is you unit working. I cant imagine the unit heating the air enough and am curious just how much heat would have to be coupled to the Ellison to prevent ice formation. This would require a metal to metal contact on the flange would it not.

It's exciting to see so many of you getting your aircraft signed off and hearing your first flight experiences. Of course, I will report mine as well..... Thanks, Jeff Smathers Molalla, Or.
