What an experience, I'm already gearing up for getting some wood soon. Unfortunately I do have some bad news. Two Saturdays ago, our B-25 Yellow Rose was flying out to Lancaster for a show. Somewhere over Austin the oil pressure on our #1 Wright Cyclone Radial engine (rebuilt last year) began dropping while the oil temp on the same engine rose. with this event, the crew shut the engine down and brought her safely back to KHYI on one engine. So now we're in the midst of figuring out how we can get the engine rebuilt and getting funding to do so. :( -------- Kelly Klaus Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=312280#312280 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 05:41:16 AM PST US From: airlion Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: louvers It has big teeth on the front also --- On Sun, 9/12/10, Clif Dawson wrote: From: Clif Dawson Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: louvers =0A=0A =0A#yiv1567305233 DIV {=0AMARGIN:0px;}=0A=0A=0AI'll bet he has a bul ldog painted it =0Atoo.=0A-=0AOh!

Two concerns immediately occur to me. First, will cooling ability decline? Second, will the vertical center of pressure be shifted, necessitating larger vertical tail members? I don't know if either of these would be real-world problems, but they may be worth considering. > >Will it be to my advantage to turn the radiator side ways to gain 10 >inches of air space under the wing and also not to interfere with >air over the wing with the radiator?.

Also ... a little something on TIG welding 4130 (http://www.weldingtipsandtricks.com/welding-4130.html). Enjoy.

Many years ago, in high school, one of my friends went into the welding cubicle wearing a really fancy shirt. He came out wearing a couple of wisps of black carbon and a priceless look on his face. Finally! I have my Terra radio, with built in intercom, wired and working. I just have to get a friend to help me test the transmission end of things. So far I'm overjoyed at the reception. My elevation is about 200' asl. To the North is Vancouver harbour, tower about 400' asl, great reception. To the South, behind a 500' ridge, is Vancouver International, very good, 4 1/2 out of 5. Further South is Boundary Bay and I'd say 3 1/2 to 4 out of 5. So it appears that all those control wires surounding my antenna aren't interfering much, if any.
