TG,
My old baffles had a plate over the alternator blast tube location. I
noticed in the parts manual it shows both a blast tube and the plate that
covers it. First question is what situations call for an alt blast tube and
which do not. Second, when installing the blast tube, what is most commonly
used as the flange. My mechanic said he's got 3/8" SCAT for tubing on his,
but I can't find a ready-made 3/8" flange anywhere.
Any recommendations?

Gary,
Now that the owner of the Tiger that you installed the three-blade MT
constant-speed prop has had it for a while, are there any new
observations to report? Speed, climb?
Thanks.

I'm not sure as to all the underlying details here, but I had my Yankee
insured thru the AOPA, they sub it out to Global Insurance Company, who used AIG
for the actual insurance carrier. I also have my CFI insurance, my Renter's
insurance, and my legal insurance thru AOPA/Global/AIG.
When I stuck my Yankee in the vineyard, I was contacted by AIG for the
details and follow up activity. AIG provided the adjuster who ultimately totaled
the airplane. The claim was handled very promptly and very professionally.
I'm completely satisfied with my relationship w/AIG directly.
I subsequently bought another airplane and called AOPA for a quote.
AOPA/Global refused to insure my new airplane because I had filed a claim. The
mechanical failure was interesting, but not relevant as they don't insure people
that file claims. What am I missing here??
It has a happy ending because I then called AIG directly and they provided
good coverage at the normal, unreasonable, price. However I'm confused about
my relationship with the AOPA Insurance program at the moment. What is the
benefit here?
Tom

When I went to insure my Citabria, I was told I'd need 50 hours of dual
before I could carry passengers. They also wanted $2500 a year. I passed
on
their offer.
I flew for 3 years without insurance.

He really likes the MT-Prop. He says he'd do it again. The second owner
of the MT-Prop, Ned Thomas, isn't as happy with his performance.

I've measured temps in the engine compartment near the mags. I don't see
where additional cooling is needed. The 4-seater just has a 1/2 inch hole
behind the mag, in the baffle.
