Hi Doug,
We will be heading up to Olympia, WA and then from there joining up with
a group of 11 other planes where a fellow will guide us up through
Alaska for 12 days.
www.letsflyalaska.com
We will leave TX on June 21st and return home somewhere around July 7th
or so. We leave Ketchikan on July 4th heading back but we're planning on
a stop in Rapid City, SD so we can visit Mount Rushmore.

Doug,
Keep me in mind for the west coast swing. I am based
in CA
(SBP) and would love to join in for a few legs if my schedule
allows. By
September the -10 should be have cleared the fly off period. If
not I
can always slum it in the 6A.

Ouch - I hate to see stuff like this go down. I got my butt bit on the Lycoming
crankshaft recall on my Cessna 182 - Cost me $8-10K. The general trend now seems
to be for the big guys to put the burden on the owner operator.
I bought a Mattituck Red/gold Engine from the guys in New York.
It is still sitting in the box. These engines are made from Lycoming parts unless
otherwise specified. I agonized and paid a lot of bucks extra as opposed to
getting an overhauled engine. It is obviously no guarantee of not getting a S/B
from hell like this, but it definitely increases the comfort zone. They always
have a deal at OSH with free freight. For those sitting on the fence, you
might want to consider talking with Mahlon at OSH.

Makes me glad I bought a new certified Lycoming from Vans back when they
were cheaper. Even then I noticed an anomaly in the oil sump casting and
Lycoming agreed to replace the sump. They sent a guy with parts and tools to
replace it in my garage; It was already mounted to the airframe; I assisted
and we had the sump changed in about three hours.

Subject: | How to Tell if You have ECI/Superior Cylinders |
I've had a few inquiries about whether or not customers' engines may be
affected by the proposed Superior/ECI service bulletins. Some of you
may not know which types of cylinders were used on your engine. If your
engine builder provided you with a detailed parts list, you should be
able to distinguish which manufacturer made your cylinders by reviewing
the nomenclature. ECI Lycoming replacement cylinders have an AEL in
front of them, and Superior Lycoming replacement cylinders have an SL.
If you have purchased a kit engine from BPE, only Lycoming OEM cylinders
were used.
If your engine builder did not provide you a detailed parts list, you
can easily identify which cylinders you have by looking at the rocker
box boss above the exhaust port for the AEL, SL or Millenium insignia.
Hope this information is helpful to at least some of you!
Everyone have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend!

Please help. I've attached the elevators to the horiz stab and adjusted to
have a roughly even gap at the trailing edge of the stab. Height wise
though there is a 3/16" difference between the left and right elevator
horns. Anyone else have this issue? Is there a fix or is this a common
misalignment? Just drill away and live with the difference?
Thanks in advance.

In my experience it is not at all uncommon to have the horns not
exactly lined up. I think it's just an issue of the welds and lack of
accuracy there. I have seen some that line up almost perfectly and
some that are off by as much as 10 degrees, probably. Is this what
you are referring to?

Mike,
I believe in Section 11-3, it specifically refers to the horns not being aligned
and has you go through a procedure to drill them "as is" while in the trail
position.
