Subject: N119ST Jaguar
From: teamgrumman@aol.com
I've been working on installing the Jaguar cowling on 119ST for a week now.
Other than the owner=2C no one else knows that 119ST was the plane I used
for all of my original company testing. 119ST has had 6 different prototy
pe cowlings=2C 3 different kinds of exit ramps=2C and 2 different versions
of air intakes tested on it. I used 119ST for a year way-back-when to test
a bunch of ideas. Check out pict 030.jpg.
I also had the cowling that is now on N1976T on 119ST about 3 years ago.
Maybe it's my familiarity with the plane or maybe that after installing 3 c
owlings in as many months=2C but=2C this one is going really smooth. The t
rim lines on this cowling are very close to the planes mounting flange. Th
is plane has one shim (I got two responses from you guys on shims and dista
nces to the spinner=2C thanks) on each of the top mounts and the distance t
o the spinner is just a shade under 40 inches. It's got to be differences
in bushings and mounts . . . . but=2C I digress.
The cowling should be all trimmed up by tomorrow. The missing baffles shou
ld be here this week also. Then=2C all the rest of the details.

The thing that gets me is that I dont recall it ever being a problem

I am going to do a few test flights and apply Gary's check and move the

Constant speed it is
Pitch is from 11 - 35 deg
Scimitar shaped design
Weight with spinner 54.7 pounds
Difference between MT and other 2 fixed pitch is that it provides more
thrust on less fuel.
Numbers will come after the turbulance and wind dies down and a good
flight test can be conducted.
A thorough flight test comparison was done on the earlier MT STC that
had the -17 blades and is available here:

All for now.....
Well I did fly 1240 miles to return home yesterday from the prop shop in
California. I flew at 11,500msl burning 7.9gph. First part of trip here:

Subject: N119ST Jaguar
From: teamgrumman@aol.com
I've been working on installing the Jaguar cowling on 119ST for a week
now.
Other than the owner=2C no one else knows that 119ST was the plane
I used
for all of my original company testing. 119ST has had 6 different proto
ty
pe cowlings=2C 3 different kinds of exit ramps=2C and 2 different ve
rsions
of air intakes tested on it. I used 119ST for a year way-back-when to
test
a bunch of ideas. Check out pict 030.jpg.
I also had the cowling that is now on N1976T on 119ST about 3 years ago.
Maybe it's my familiarity with the plane or maybe that after installing
3 c
owlings in as many months=2C but=2C this one is going really smooth.
The t
rim lines on this cowling are very close to the planes mounting flange.
Th
is plane has one shim (I got two responses from you guys on shims and di
sta
nces to the spinner=2C thanks) on each of the top mounts and the dista
nce t
o the spinner is just a shade under 40 inches. It's got to be differenc
es
in bushings and mounts . . . . but=2C I digress.
The cowling should be all trimmed up by tomorrow. The missing baffles
shou
ld be here this week also. Then=2C all the rest of the details.

Kevin,
For what-it's-worth, Ken Tunnell (LyCon Engine Rebuilders) and I have a 10
:1 fuel injected engine in the works that is rated at 180 hp at 2550 rpm.
With the MT prop, it should climb like a homesick angel and get awesome
fuel mileage. The MT prop will take advantage of the extra torque and st
ill improve cruise speeds.

I'm eager to see some numbers too! We (True Flight) are set up to distrib
ute and install these and will be offering them on the new Tigers too. As
they say the proof is in the puddin' so how's the puddin' Ned?

Yeah,
Me too.
I could climb with Gary but just barely...
That is I had to put the nose way down and climb 20kts faster than best
climb rate;)
More info (numbers) soon as I finish flight testing.
Regards,
Ned

Hi Gary,
I like fast! Wonder how much power it would make
at........say......let's pull a random number out of the air
here.........2700 rpm?
COOOL! (note the BIG smile) ;-)
And while Ned was making great time flying East with fantastic tail
winds I flew almost 1400 miles in a 150hp AA1A in the opposite direction
into the wind - often at only 80-90 knots. Long trip - still fun! Some
guys have all the luck.
