We have a problem with our industry in US. IMHO, too many US buyers are
interested in the cheapest purchase price and not looking at the long
term. Manufacturers respond to the consumer...most times. Can you say
"Wally World."

service bulletins in May, they revised one to SB2-08A on July 1. IMHO,
too many US industries are interested in a quick profit and not looking

I have the slick mags on my TMX IO-360 as well as the ECI cylinders and
had the Superior Ryton sump.
The ryton sump I can understand being taken off the market, it was
truely experimental, but the other
parts are 1920's technology and they still can't get it right. I use to
always buy American, but purchesed
my first Jap car last year after a bad experience with an American type.
Now all this too. I just doesn't
seem to stop. Maybe we have lost all our engineering and manufacturing
ability here. Maybe Honda or Toyota
will start to make an engine for our RV's

HI All-
This slick mag debacle doesn't affect me directly, but something occurs to
me that might be of use. A couple of you have written very good and
insightful notes on this subject. Suppose you sent them to Aviation
Consumer, their sister mx rag, Flying, AOPA Pilot, Kitplanes, et al as Op
Ed pieces. That way, the issue will be out in the open pre-Oshkosh. Well,
as I type this, it occurs to me that none of them will get into print by
the time OSH comes around, except perhaps via Barnstormers and AvWeb. In
any case, you guys could document the situation in public prior to the
event. If anything happens enr to or fro the convention, your concerns
will have been registered before hand. Hopefully, this situation will
trigger a pre-emptive action on slick's part. If not, your efforts will no
doubt be of great assistance to anyone going to court.
Just a thought-

| Subject: | Dynon draining battery? |
My aircraft battery doesnt seem to be keeping charge as well as it used
to, and its new. I am hearing a rythmic ticking at a one second
interval sometimes but not always, with the master off. I have my Dynon
D-10A wired to charge the internal battery without the master being on.
Just wondering if anyone else has heard this mysterious ticking or
noticed a battery drain with their Dynon.

Check your hobbs on the dynon... does it appear to be gaining time with
the master off? If so, then you may have the dynon keep alive wired
incorrectly...
