when I
was practicing dead stick landing in my Original Firestar it seemed to
have better glide with the engine off then with the prop turning at idle.>>>

Bryan/ guys
My experience with an engine out in the Mk2 showed a much poorer glide ratio with
the engine off and the prop stopped than when the engine is idling. If you're
talking clutched engines here, forgive the intrusion. Mine is not.

this was coppied from the avweb page.........
Enter TSO C-91a
For all of these reasons, the FAA finally came up with a new and more
rigorous spec for ELTs: TSO C-91a. The new C-91a are required to have a
remote panel-mounted switch (which allows the pilot to manually activate the
ELT) and a panel-mounted light or horn to alert the pilot when the ELT is
actually transmitting. The new ELTs also have a "G" switch that will
activate with an acceleration of 3.5 feet-per-second, a heavy-duty airframe
mount, and a frequency tolerance of .005% (among other things).
coppied from my ak-450 instalation and operation manual
(cover)
document no.: IM-450
installation and operation manual
for
model ak-450 elt emergency locator transmitter
per tso-c91a, rtca do-183 and do-160c requirements
(pg 3 paragraph 1.2)
the ak-450 elt emergency locator transmitter is an electronic solid state
baded equipment. it is an extremely reliable equipment, designed to meet
tso-c91a requirements, batteries operated and self contained. ......
it seems that the new spec for elt is tso c-91a and the ak-450 meets
those repuirements......

Good one John, they were kind enough to include several generous
loopholes.
-older installations grandfathered
-the 50 mile radius
-test flying of a new aircraft
-removal for maint. (good for 90 days- after which you can repeat the
process)
heh heh heh

Fellas,
What is the easiest way to change the oil on a 912? I have the standard Xtra setup,
oil tank mounted out front and the oil cooler suspended at the rear.
Thanks,
Tom Sabean

Tom/Gang:
The easiest way is let somebody else do it for you. ;-)
Here's how I do mine:
1. Fly around the patch.
2. Pop the oil and vent lines off the oil tank.
3. Loosen one bolt on the oil tank clamp and pull out the tank and
dump it. Leave it upside down draining while I do the filter.
4. I have a small piece of aluminum sheet to use as a deflector under
the oil filter fitting. Pull the oil filter off and let the little
bit of oil drain into a coffee can.
5. I don't worry about the oil that is left in the oil cooler and
lines. I change the oil more often than the book calls for, which is
100 hours.
6. Sometimes I go ahead and fill up the oil tank before putting it
back on the engine. Usually put 3 qts in it. Fly over to my buddies
air strip and gunk the engine and check oil level. He has a water
hose at his strip and I don't. The FBO at Wetumpka did not want me
gunking my engine there because it smelled bad. Shoot, I love the
smell of gunk. Means clean engines to me. The short 6 mile flight
home dries the engine off good and I can check to see if I have any
oil leaks when I get back on the ground at home.
BTW: A few days ago I mentioned I thought I might have an engine oil
leak or maybe spilled some oil when I changed it last. Couple days
ago I gunked the engine and discovered no oil leaks. That sure made
me feel good. Was a little oil residue from what dripped out of the
oil lines during the last oil change, most likely.
I am using Shell Rotella 5W40 full sythetic oil and Fram TG3614 or
3600 oil filters when burning auto fuel. When burning a lot of 100LL
I switch to Valvoline Duralblend Semi-synthetic 10W40. With 923.0
hours on the 912ULS, everything is operating great. Old engine is
just as strong now as it was when new. I see no reason to tear it
down at 1,500 hours as prescribed by Rotax TBO. I'll keep doing
occasional compression checks to see if there is any change. If not,
we are going to get our money's worth out of it.
Take care,
john h

Most always cut the old filter open to see what's been filtered out.
Little metallic bits could be a heads up.......

And biggest reason Wife stayed in Kentucky.
Perfect situation EHh?
