    Yeah, unfortunately in this medium if someone cracks wise with the best of intentions and wit, somewhere, at least someone is going to be mortally wounded and may well 'retaliate' and start a minor crap storm. Of course, my personal favorite is when you take the time, effort, and sometimes expense to research a topic, going right up to as close to the top of the food chain as a mere mortal can and report back to the list, only to discover you have trampled someone's dearest held myth which then results in you being assaulted personally. Sometimes this list operates in as rarefied an atmosphere as a grade school cafeteria. And people wonder why participation on this list is petering out. I'm just glad Matt made this valiant effort for the greater good and not for a living. Well, now that I've made someone apoplectic, I think I'll go cut some aluminum. Cheers to all the sane, well adjusted, comfortable-in-their-own-skin folks out there trying to learn something pertinent. And, of course, Do Not Archive. It's the right thing to do with non-RV building material. glen matejcek aerobubba@earthlink.ne

    Dan, Your question was good, you now know the answer. I'm sure that all of the builders acquired this knowledge at some point, either by reading the manual, EAA Chapter Tech, a friend building a plane and/or A&P. Great, keep working on that plane, I'm sure you are doing a great job. Because of your post, I now know we need to be really careful when we flair our tubing, per Ed's post. On my own tubing I have always cleaned them a little with emery cloth. Ed, what do you think about using emery cloth on the flair? What do we do with the rough edge made by the flairing tool?

    Subject: Need info
    Jim, I'm not an A&P, so not certain what the correct answer to your question should be about using emery cloth. Ideally, the answer is to buy one of those very expensive "double flair" makers - it folds that ragged end under and gives you a smooth joint. No, I didn't spring for one either {:>) But, one thing you can to before you make the flare is to smooth the ends as much as possible after cutting them. Small cracks lead to bigger cracks when you flair. The second thing is that frequently ragged ends are caused by having too much tube length sticking out of the clamp for flaring, that leads to over stretching and ragged edges. No I don't know of the magic formula - but there probably is one somewhere. Personally, I feel if you smooth the end as much as you can, then only protrude the proper length of tubing for the flair, you can live with a small degree of roughness on the edge. The edge does not do the sealing that is done back down the throat, so while it may look a bit "ragged" it is likely to function just fine. Now don't ignore cracks that you can see are stretching down into the flair. Hopefully an A&P type out there will have a better answer.

    Subject: IO-360-B Power Chart?
    Does ANYONE have (or know where I can find) a SIMPLE power chart for the Lycoming/Superior IO-360 B series engine? I need something that allows me to fill-in a chart similar to this For 55% 2300 2400 2500 RPM (99hp) map map map sea level nn.n nn.n nn.n 2K ft nn.n nn.n nn.n 4K ft nn.n nn.n nn.n ... For 65% 2300 2400 2500 RPM (117hp) map map map sea level nn.n nn.n nn.n 2K ft nn.n nn.n nn.n 4K ft nn.n nn.n nn.n ... For 75% 2300 2400 2500 RPM (135hp) map map map sea level nn.n nn.n nn.n 2K ft nn.n nn.n nn.n 4K ft nn.n nn.n nn.n ... I can read the the Goofy Lycoming Chart ("Figure 3-23 Sea Level and Altitude Performance - IO-360-B1A"). I've been studying it for DAYS. But I defy anyone to use that chart to tell me within 20 minutes what RPM, MAP to use at 5,000' to get 65% power. The chart is built to derive HP at an altitude if you know RPM and MP. Instead I need a table for my POH so I can run at a %HP if I've been assigned an altitude. I've sent messages to both Lycoming and Superior and they just think I can't read their table. Thanks in Advance.

    Simple. Add MAP and rpm/100. total=50~75%, =47~65%, =44~55% These rule of thumb are accurate within 3% power, depending on installation. If you want to be conservative, use 49, 46 and 43.

    Another thing builders often do without thinking is to use those sharp whee l tube cutters that work harden the end of the tubing, try to flair this area and end up with cracks. You can use this type of cutter but you are going to have to cut the tubing slightly greater than final size and then file off the hardened alloy to get down to the dead soft material. This is akin to Van's instructions to redrill to size the mechanically punched holes in ski ns in order to remove the slight area of work hardened material.

Ideally, the answer is to buy one of those very expensive =9Cdouble flair=9D makers =93 it fol ds that ragged end under and gives you a smooth joint. No, I didn=99t spring for one either {:>) But, one thing you can to before you make the flare is to smooth the ends a s much as possible after cutting them. Small cracks lead to bigger cracks when you flair. The second thing is that frequently ragged ends are caused by having too much tube length sticking out of the clamp for flaring, that lead s to over stretching and ragged edges. No I don=99t know of the magic formula =93 but there probably is one somewhere. **************Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place.
