(Matt Dralle) 2. 10:37 PM - Re: need phone numbers (jetinc@comcast.net) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 12:40:20 PM PST US From: Matt Dralle Subject: TeamGrumman-List: [Please Read] Matronics Email Server Upgrade... --> TeamGrumman-List message posted by: Matt Dralle Dear Listers, I will be upgrading the Matronics Email Server this weekend. This includes some hardware improvements - more memory, faster, more capable processors - as well as a complete operating system upgrade from scratch. I hope to have both the old system and the new system running at the same time to minimize the actual impact of the upgrade. Hopefully there will be little actual downtime during the transition, but a few posts may get lost in the shuffle. If you don't see your post show up on the List in the normal amount of time (plus a little bit), then please just try posting it again. Upgrading the Matronics Email Server operating system (from Redhat Linux 7.2 to Redhat Linux WS 4) is a sizeable undertaking and requires a great deal of work to port all of the utilities, programs, and scripts over to the new system. As I've already mentioned, both the old and new systems will be on line at the same time, so interruption should be held to an absolute minimal. You might see a couple of odd test messages during the cut-over or other odd messages; please just ignore them. I have setup a new System Status Web Page that I will use to update List Members on the current status of the email and web systems. Please refer to it as often as you like: http://www.matronics.com/SystemStatus/ Thank you for your continued support of the List Services at Matronics! Its your yearly Contributions that make these major upgrades possible! Best regards, Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:37:23 PM PST US From: jetinc@comcast.net Subject: RE: TeamGrumman-List: need phone numbers --> TeamGrumman-List message posted by: jetinc@comcast.net Hi Jamey, Lycon overhauled the engine in my 79' tiger last year. So far, I'm very pleased with the engine. I had it port/polished with new cylinders and it dynoed at a little over 200 hp. I've really noticed the performance in climb and cruise and it performs really well. The only issue I had with Lycon is that the overhaul took a little longer than planned. It wasn't much of an issue as I was having other work done at the time. The only other issue I can think of is that I burn more fuel than before. Not much, maybe a gallon or three per hour, but I'm able to run th eengine much harder (higher rpm) then before and am cruising much faster than before. If you have any questions please let me know. Ken, at Lycon, was very easy to deal with...

My current engine has the same 920 hours on it that my '79 airframe does and is starting to show it's age a bit. Regretably this means a the mid-time overhaul. Of course I could look at it as my engine going to twice Lycomings overhaul spec of 12 years for a glass is half full viewpoint;) I'd like to have an engine ready to swap in by maybe November/Dec (a little before my annual is up but to keep the down-time to the winter months). I have no reason to suspect that Lycon would do anything but a completely top-notch job from everything Gary has told me and everything I've read (Aviation Consumer last month ). I certainly appreciate your feedback on them. Did you do the port/polish? If so, how do you feel about the results of that?
