I have had only one ramp check, which immediately was after a late night cross
country landing in Nov 2004 in Hayes, KS. The FAA guy was very cordial and only
wanted to inspect my AROW documents plus pilot's certificate and current medical
certificate. That is all he was interested in. Of course, I was flying a
Cherokee 140 with no pretense of being part 103 compliant :-).

The reply from Flight Designs, when they were the importers of the HKS
engine was no, use straight automotive Mobil 1 without the gearbox
additives. The HKS, like the Rotax 912 does not have a separate oil supply
for the gearbox.

Kolbers,
I just spoke with Daryl @ Warp Drive.
I would suggest that anyone ordering a Warp Drive prop to make sure you are dealing
with the factory in Iowa, where Daryl is. He is 100 times more knowledgeable
& helpful than if you purchase through a dealer. When I ordered the prop,
I googled Warp Drive and got what I thought was the factory. Turns out it was
a distributor, Hoverhawk, who I purchased my prop from. Nice folks, but they in
turn just have it drop shipped from Warp Drive. Nothing wrong with that, but
when it comes to service no one knows more about a Warp Drive prop than Daryl.
He suggested I send the blades to him & he will have them custom tapered based
on my prop pitch and rpm info, which should drop the MOI a good bit. Won't
know how much till I get it back, but I'm willing to give it a try.
The Warp Drive Factory ph# is 800.833.9357.

Gtaylor, read 103-7 carefully. The lightest soft pack parachute system (non-canister)
you can find can buy you a 24 lb allowance. All associated parts and
reinforcement points / fittings may be claimed. A separate weighing of the parachute
system components is not required.
