    Three hard failures in 350 hours, dual Plasma II+ install in my 8A. I now h ave 300+ hours on dual pMags and they have been flawless. First engine start on the RV-10 is 2-3 weeks away and Brad at eMag has not y et delivered my ignitions for the IO-540. I guess I'll put up with the mags for the first few hours.

    There are many of us that have been talking to eMag for years and they keep saying that they are almost there. On the 6-cyl version, I guess they decided to go the certification route from the get-go, instead of making it available to the experimental market. =46rom the looks of it, the P-mag is going to be a great product. Again, the reliability will take time to know, but the concept is great and the backup power coming from the engine is a great idea. Timing them is also very easy. Can't wait to hear how they work.

    From: Jim Ayers <lessdragprod@aol.com>
    I talked with E-Mag yesterday. I was told to visit their booth at Sun-N-Fu n to see the IO-540 "production" P-Mag unit. (They are gearing up for production. I told them they needed to shot the e ngineer to go into production. :-) I hope they didn't take that literally.) I have my "deposit in" on their (just started) buyers list for the IO-540 P -Mag. I believe they will be taking names at their booth at Sun-N-Fun, or you can wait for a while to see how it goes. JIm Ayers Less Drag Products, Inc.

    Subject: FWF Fuel Line Torque Values
    From: Nikolaos Napoli <napolin@me.com>
    I am wondering what the correct torque value for the FWF fuel and oil lines is. The Lycoming Overhaul Manual has fairly low torque values for "flexible hose or tube fittings " in the order of 30 to 35 in-lbs with corresponding values of over 100in-lb from Aeroquip and similar sources. Not sure which values to use. Thanks Niko

    http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/eppages/electroair0807272.php "Replacing one magneto with the EIS-41000 will typically improve fuel economy on average by 10-15% (many operators have reported consistent fuel savings of 1gph or greater)." By that measure, they should pay for themselves in 200 to 300 hours or so which isn't bad at all. After so many promises over the past several years, it is great to see something actually making it to market!
