I think 10% is max allowed. I would not use any additives. I just
checked Rotax Service Instruction SI-912-016R6 and here's what it says...

Hi all,
Does anyone have a copy of the UK LAA MOD/202/001 through to MOD/202/008 documents
that outlined some manditory modifications to the Pulsar?
Googling results in a TAD document that skims over a couple of them and shows that
the LAA approved some higher speeds etc, but no real specifics, particularly
for MOD/202/001 though to MOD/202/006.

Matt,
I dont know the answer to that question, but I do have a little information about
some modifications that were incorporated into my XP. Can you describe any
of the mods?
And I have a question for you - - totally unrelated, but about the B777
Can you tell me why would happen if while in cruise in the B777 you reached the
end [i.e. arrive overhead] the last programmed waypoint in the FMC. What would
the aircraft do next, if there was no intervention by the crew? Have you ever
seen that happen in practice, or experienced it in a SIM.

Matt,
Ive just looked on the LAA website, searched using MOD/202/001, and none of these
mods relate directly to any of the Aero Designs service bulletins that I am
aware of.
It seems to get the detailed information you will need to contact the LAA.

Yeah sure brian,
Lateral navigation or LNAV will downgrade to heading hold at the end of programmed
FMC route.
I've flown and instructed on Boeings for a long time, and I can't think of any
unintentional mode combination, normal or downgraded, or simply thrust and trim
scenario that would result in a 6+ hour journey. the 747-400 was a lot more
stable than the 777 and it wouldn't stay airborne that long.
If A/C in intentional modes and and run out of gas, or thrust, and left to its
own devices, then you'll get a vertical mode downgrade at stick shaker that will
result in an almost max alpha descent in envelope protection, and that's if
the autopilot stays engaged between main electrical bus loss and RAT or APU power
automatically coming online. Otherwise it's an in trim descent.
The 'event' that I think you are referring to doesn't make much sense to me either.
And the 'aviation experts' in the media certainly don't help. They may as
well get Kim Kardashian in front of the camera.
At the end of the day. The truth lies in what data is recovered, and like all big
jet incidents these days, what they want us to know. Lots of money involved.
Hope that helps............
I've emailed the LAA. Fingers crossed. If i have any trouble, due to not being
a member, can anyone help out? I'll return the favour with any info you may need
from the Aussie SAAA...........
Regards.

Thanks Matt,
Yes of course the question I ask is related to MH370, but it is a hypothetical one asked by Duncan Steel see www.duncansteel.com
Im not interested in the media stuff. It is mostly distorted and totally speculative,
but Duncan and some of his contributors are approaching this from a strictly
scientific point of view, based on publicly released data form Inmarsat.
I have a friend who is a very experienced B777 captain and he too, gave me essentially
the same answer as you, i.e the aircraft would default to either Heading
Hold or Track Hold, depending on what mode the autopilot was left previously.
We should probably get off this topic on the Pulsar List, lest we incur the wrath
of others, or the moderator. And I apologise to other members in advance.

Then dont bother with the media stuff. Check out Duncans website, and also this - - http://tmfassociates.com/blog/category/operators/inmarsat/ and this guy, GlobusMax - - - http://www.reddit.com/r/MH370/comments/21jla4/mh370_flight_waypoints_timing_and_speed/?sort=new
Interesting what Crowd Sourcing can do.

Yes Brian, and I am no expert either so hopefully we'll get pure facts from one
soon, for the families sake.
I did hear from Alan and he proved once again how lucky we are to have such a great
group of people who are passionate about the Pulsar.
I'll post his answer into this topic shortly.
Regards,
Matt

Hi all,
Does anyone have a copy of the UK LAA MOD/202/001 through to MOD/202/008
documents that outlined some manditory modifications to the Pulsar?
Googling results in a TAD document that skims over a couple of them and
shows that the LAA approved some higher speeds etc, but no real specifics,
particularly for MOD/202/001 though to MOD/202/006.
Regards, Matt.

Here is Alan Gill's outline of the first 6 UK LAA MOD requirements for the Pulsar,
(thanks very much again Alan!) :
MOD/202/001 .... If you are installing the header fuel tank (in front of the instrument
panel) then at the fuel outlet you need to have a fuel strainer and on/off
tap.
Fit gascolator to firewall (gascolator to have metal bowls).
All fuel lines in engine bay to be of fire proof type.
MOD/202/002 .... The canopy is held close by an internal centre latch above the
instrument panel. So there is no means of releasing the canopy externally (if
say a rescue team needed to access you inside the cockpit). So we had to fit
a canopy open/close system that could be operated internally as well as externally.
Most of use devised a system that was mounted above your head (on the composite),
and centre to the canopy.
MOD/202/003 ... Flap lever to be shrouded to allow operation without risk of cuffs,
gloves etc being caught in the flap gate. I did not modify my Pulsar, and
I am not aware of anyone else doing it in our UK fleet. Never had a problem.
MOD/202/004 ... Throttle inner cable in cockpit to be enclosed with outer sleeving
(to prevent snagging in vicinity of pilots knees).
MOD/202/005 ... Addition to firewall. We were instructed to fit a firewall shield.
I used stainless steel (0.015" min thickness), or we could use a product
called "fiberfrax" at 3mm thick with a covering sheet of aluminium.
MOD/202/006 ... Flying Control System Improvements. At the flap clevis fork (page
48 in the build manual), fit an extra rib. This is to prevent any flexing
of the upper part of the flap when full flap is applied. For a template, use the
inboard rib part number AD220-A.
The pop rivets that hold the bell crank AD224 to the flap torque tube AD222A has
a shear of 420 lbs. There is only about 20% safety limit here. So recommended
that a 3/16 bolt be added between the rivets using a AN3-16A bolt with lock-nut
(use a suitable spacer inside of the torque tube to prevent crushing).
AN hardware .. Any part that is being held by an AN bolt with a nylock nut that
"rotates" should be changed out to a castle head nut with split-pin.
Examples: AD224 flap bell crank to AD226 flap pushrod. AD240 control stick to AD242
hinge bracket etc.
Anything to add guys????
Regards, Matt.
