For your information, Jabiru has now come with a service bulletin that says their
engine can run with up to 10 percent ethanol. But they warn that those who
have a Jabiru aircraft with the brown-coloured fuel tanks cannot use ethanol containing
fuel. However, the later tanks, that are whitish in colour, can use
ethanol. When asked how they treated those tanks, apparently they use Kreem.
Disclaimer: Heresay on the Jabiru list. Myself, I keep to Avgas. More expensive,
here in Norway, but safer until I know more.

My understanding of the Norwegian text is that we loose it for always, Harr
y. But thank you for informing me about what's the rule in other countries.
I might use it as an argument.

Okay, Rex. The funny thing is that, when I lost consciousness in the ambula
nce, last year, it felt pretty much like when my son and I recovered from a
deep dive in a Blanik glider, years ago. A feeling the blood was drained f
rom the brain.

Hola, Jos=E9! Funny you should ask; a couple of weeks ago, we went flying a
nd I was in the right hand seat. Back home I said I'll do the landing; some
thing I had never done from the right hand seat. It went ... well but we en
ded in the runway's shoulder on the right side. I had to yell at him to bra
ke. He forgot that I didn't had brakes on the right hand side pedals. Right
hand seat flying is okay but you need to train for it.

Hi Jan
That is the way to deal with such things. If you want to compare apples
with apples definitions are necessary.
With regard to the question about 4 stroke or 2 stroke engines (Rotax):
the difference lays in the carburettor, I think. The 4 stroke engines
use CV carburettors which compensate for the altitude, at least partly.

Right,
real test have to be don on calm days, and result have to be plotted to
standard atmosphere.
the HAC ? system is available for 2 stroke carbs, don't know how high they
will compensate, (if there is any limits)

Here's an update. I received the spruce 2" snap vents http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/snapvents.php yesterday. I tested in a scrap piece of lexan.
It was easy to bore through with a hole saw no problem. The instructions say cut
a 2" hole. I don't have a 2 inch so used a 2-1/8th inch. The vents measured
about 2-3/8th inch. They were too tight in the 2-1/8th hole to adjust.
I sent them back today and ordered the Vista vents. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/vistavents.php
