| Subject: | No "Black Friday" For List Fund Raiser... |
Even though the number of List subscriptions and List posts are up significantly
this year compared to last year, support during this year's List Fund Raiser
has been woefully lagging from last year. There are only a couple more days
left in November and the end of the Fund Raiser is quickly approaching.
I have always preferred a non-commercial List experience as many, many members
have also expressed that they do as well. However, if the yearly fund raiser
cannot generate sufficient funds to keep the bills paid on the List service expenses,
I will have to look into some sort of advertising. Please don't let that
happen!
Your personal contribution of $20 or $30 goes a long ways to keeping the operation
a float. The lunch combo at Carl's Jr costs nearly $10 these days. Isn't
the List worth at least as much as a couple of burgers?

Kolbers,
Slowly fumbling along trying to get the MZ 34 up and running on the FireFly.
I thought I was there with cutting an old IVO propeller to 52 inches, and
replacing a defective push button bulb primer. The new primer, with a serial
shut off valve, solved all the fuel system related problems.
But after starting the engine to determine maximum static rpm, I discovered
that the battery in the Tiny Tach died, and I could not read the rpm.
Ordered a replacement. I hope to install it today so that I can measure
maximum static rpm. I do not want to remount the wings until the engine
tops out at or above 6,000 rpm. The thinking is that the engine will surely
come on up to 6,250 rpm at 60 mph cruise with the throttle wide open.
For those of you who have measured static, climb, and cruise rpm at full
throttle, is this a reasonable assumption?

Sounds good to me, I normally see the 68" Ivo on the 582 unload about 300 rpm between
climbout and flat out. Currently with this cool weather I am seeing about
6350 on climbout for what it's worth.

to stick out the car window and off we went. Seems to be pretty accurate
at all the road legal speeds at least. It's unusually warm today, flying seemed
to be just the thing to do, and I got to thinking about something to do with
that little ASI before I got rid of it. I've always wondered how much air is
coming up the boom tube. Now I know.

Where exactly was your pitot tube on this experiment?

| Subject: | FS II CHT vs EGT |
Hello All,
My FSII runs and flies great but CHT seems low. 503 duel carb. Prop is set so
RPM is right on the money. EGT runs in the recommended range (860 to 1100 degrees
F) but CHT hangs between 200 and 300. 330 only after prolonged full power
climb. Plug electrodes are light brown. CHT gauge checks OK.
Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks very much in advance,
SA
