Eric,
Did you get any indication why you got the 30 hour fly off? I am just beginning
my project and am still learning the ins and outs of the process.
Do you have a certified engine and prop?

As for what drove the 30 hour fly-off I have no idea. I didn't press the issue.
I have an Aerosport Power IO-540 with a new Hartzell prop. The only comment I
got was even though the engine is a clone of a certified engine it was made to
higher tolerances than the Lycoming factory and the IO-540 and the prop are
a certified combination. Can't offer more than that.
Temps: I have 5.0 on the engine right now and have done nothing other than fly
around on the engine break in. First flight at 3000 PA and 54 degrees OAT my CHTs
ranged from 390 to 420. Today by the end of the flight at the same altitude
and 10 degrees warmer outside my CHTs were down to 378 to 414. Of course cylinders
5 and 6 are the hottest cylinders. My oil temps were steady at 192 degrees
and 78 PSI. I have the oil cooler attached to the aft engine baffle as opposed
to the firewall and scat tubing. The Sam James cowl is certainly not airtight
as I have it installed. Now that it seems my temps are coming down after
break-in I figure I have about 3 or 4 more hours before beginning to really seal
up the plenum to control cooling.
I am waiting for my superstar ground and flight support guy to put together and
post the pics and video. When I have the link I will post it. I was so fortunate
that when he filmed the first landing it was pretty. Not the same story today.
Fortunately no one was watching today.
Eric
