This afternoon they opened up the parting areas and we were quite busy most of the afternoon. So things are looking more like normal with four days to go. If there is any bad news, it is that rain is forecast for tomorrow. Don't know how much, but hopefully the ground can take it. Guess who landed at OSH today? Our British newsletter correspondent, Clive James and his lovely bride, Shirley, from Norfolk (No, not Norfolk, Virginia, the real Norfolk in England). Clive called me on my cell and we were able to finally meet face to face for the first time since we have been corresponding via email for probably three years. I know all of you have enjoyed Clive's articles in past Lightning Newsletters. They only stayed a short while as they are flying around this part of the US for a few days before the official start of AirVenture. They will be back on Monday (opening day) and hope to meet many Lightning enthusiast in the booth. >From here on out I may get too busy to send additional updates, but will try to continue to do so. Just wanted to provide a heads up incase I miss a day or more. Still looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday next week.

Did all testing within a 2 hour time period, same temp, same altitudes. at 2 pm went up and had wot of 3110, installed a 1/2 inch spacer on air filter that would keep air filter 1/2 inch further from firefall, went up again and had wot of 3160. then changed scat tube out for rubber tube from cowl to air box and had wot of 3230, but had egts of 1420 and 1160, not willing to give up rpms installed a plate in outlet of air box knowing this to be a hit or miss. what a hit, egt at wot within 10, at cruise within 35 and within 15 below cruise. Have photos if any would like them, I am still excited about this Dave McC Esqual 060 ----- Original Message ----- From: "davemcc" Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2010 10:23 PM Subject: Lightning-List: airbox > > test message > > > Read this topic online here: > > http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=305887#305887 > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message lightning-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Lightning-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/lightning-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/lightning-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
