Using the correct words is important to the FAA guys who make their living by looking for arcane semantic infractions, and insurance adjusters looking for justifications not to pay claims. The Inspection for an experimental aircraft (most of the readers here) that occurs within the last 12 months to be legal, is called a Condition Inspection and the sign off must be worded that way, along with "safe operation" in the appropriate place. The similarly timed inspection for type certificated aircraft is called an Annual Inspection and must be signed off that way including the phrase "airworthy condition" in the appropriate place. -------- Thom Riddle Buffalo, NY (9G0) Kolb Slingshot SS-021 Jabiru 2200A #1574 Tennessee Prop 64x32 The truth will set you free.

Any ideas? Barry Johnathan and Berry When I first attendend Lockwood's 912 engine course,Dean(the instructor) mentioned that the most likely problems you will find during troubleshooting ignition problems is, broken wires under the sheilding. As to how it happens,I really don't know but I would guess it is vibration. What happens if you bend a paper clip many times ? Even though the wire in question is braided wire,that is what happens. The shielding can take more bending prior to breakage so therefore,you don't see the break in the underlying wire. That was the case with my engine and I suspect it will happen again.

(prior was slide blowing flight attendent...hmmm that didn't sound quite right) ... That is precisely the reason why I let my medical expire. I too am tired of the BS. I do however stay current with my condition inspections,biannual reviews etc just in case I crunch the airplane and find myself getting sued by land owner,loosing my license,no coverage on busted aircraft,etc. I am comfortable with that.

No harm, no foul, but since you started this hair splitting thread, I thought I might join in and split the hair splits a bit finer, so to speak. It is all done for our mutual benefit and/or amusement. Those who don't care to/for split hairs can choose to ignore it. -------- Thom Riddle Buffalo, NY (9G0) Kolb Slingshot SS-021 Jabiru 2200A #1574 Tennessee Prop 64x32 The truth will set you free.
