    Subject: ACK E-04 Shipping
    I just called to doublecheck with ACK to see if their new ELT would be shipping soon enough for me to squeeze mine in before a trip. I don't think I'll get it in time from the distributor for the trip, but, they did say that they shipped their first load out last Friday, and they'll be shipping another load out this Friday, and continuing to produce them as fast as they can. So for those like me who've been waiting for a long time, the end is almost here. -- Tim Olson - RV-10 N104CD do not archive

    Subject: Re: 2006X oil cooler question
    I did get a very preliminary flight today after installing the 2006X oil cooler. I flew last Friday for an hour, and I was able to get 185-187F out of the original Aero-Classics oil cooler. The weather that day was high 20's-low 30's F. That would be perfect for me, if it stayed there year round. Yesterday I flew with the 2006X oil cooler, although only maybe .4 or so hours. It was maybe 20F out, but maybe a little less. I flew until I hit 174 or 175F and it didn't climb very fast in temp at all. I got the feeling that the 2006X cooler did indeed cool a little more than the other, but the day was colder too, so it was hard to tell. Today I installed the Nonstopaviation.com control valve, and went for a quick flight of only .3 or .4 hours. I kept the valve closed until the oil temp hit 190F after takeoff. Then I set the valve wide open and it went down under 180F for a bit, and then climbed back up to 183F or so after a couple minutes. The weather outside was a little warmer today...ground temps were in the 30's....and I believe slightly warmer than Friday. Now, none of this is scientific, but, it does appear that even with just looking at this tiny snapshot in time that isn't very well compared, that the 2006X cooler does drop the temps a little....maybe at least 4 degrees, but just guessing by the way it reacted to going full open, it could be more towards 7 or even 8 degrees F lower. I don't know that I'll believe it'll do 15F lower, but something in the neighborhood of 5-10F is probably likely. Now, again, this is only a very very small snapshot in time. I'll have to play with it on some longer flights, especially when I get on vacation in a couple weeks where it's warmer, and see how the temps look now. At present though, I'm thinking that Nonstopaviation.com valve is probably a pretty nice thing to have for us cold-weather fliers (or for LOP flying at higher altitudes on cold days) to keep the oil temp in the good range, and that the 2006X cooler is probably worth the added $$$ if you drop the Van's standard cooler from the parts list and order that one instead. I got it from Alex at rvtraining.com, and I see it's also available at other places. So, if I were starting from scratch, I'd buy that cooler initially first. My other cooler did work ok for me, and many other folks, but if there is something better, then I guess that's the way to go. This is just all preliminary, but anyway, it was interesting for me.
