| Subject: | Pitot tube cover |
Folks,
I have a 10" L-shaped Gretz heated pitot/static tube and am looking for a cover
for it.
The ones that I have found to be commercially available are all too short.
Any ideas?
Ralph Capen

Ralph,
I used one from Spruce that is specified for Falcon jets as I remember.
It looks like a black rubber cap that fits over the tip of the tube with a
remove before flight banner attached. The other collection of are all too
short as you've found out ( I have two "extras", ha, ha)
Good hunting,
John

| Subject: | [Fwd: 12v supply to stabilize avionics] |
I am purchasing a 12V power supply that takes
6-24V input and gives 12V out at up to 14 A continuous.
It's a 95% efficient switcher with a quiescent current
around 10mA. We need to buy ten of them to get a
better price (about $55).
Why do I want one? Why might you want one?
I have a 1-battery airplane and don't want to rewire the
whole thing. The GPS and radios reboot if they are on when
I start the engine. During cranking, the bus voltage drops
to around 10 V, and the avionics brown out. I want that
problem to go away, and also want to keep the radio working
for a while if the alternator shuts down and the battery drains
below 10V.
So, the solution I am trying is a switching power supply that
converts anything between 6 and 24 V in to a stabilized 12V out.
with 95% efficiency, the lost power is minimal. We would like to
buy 10 units for about $55 each (+ s/h). We've accounted for
four units, so there will be six more available. Who wants one?

Leave avionics off while starting the plane. Cost...ZERO.

Guys: N65XX flew today in Reno. 2.1 hours with no problems noted. I am
looking forward to the next 38 in the test area, and the next 1000 hours of
pure fun. Dan.

Subject: RV-List: Govenor oil leak
I have a new O-360 and the Jihostroj prop governor. I have a
persistent oil leak that appears to be coming from the gasket between
the governor and the engine. I changed the gasket once and my mechanic
changed it a second time. The leak seems to be at the top of the joint
and oil dribbles on down various hoses and wires and exits at the lower
cowl.
Anyone else have the problem?
