Folks,
Remember to register online at the events page http://www.flyredstar.org/T_Events.aspx its free, dont need to be an rpa member to register
...and not only does it let the organizer complile an automatic list of whos
coming to plan for, it also gives the magazine staff the same compiled list to
include in post event articles (so they can list the names of all those who attended
as needed).
Event organizers, you already know this: you just click "edit yuour events" from
the events page, and click "whos registered" and you can see and download
a complete, pre-formated list of all attendees registration info for your planning,
accounting and other needs.
Thanks for helping out your magazine and event volunteers
Drew
RPA
PS: To the CFIs who have asked to have their info updated on the national CFI databse
listing on flyredstar: This new event web service is 24/7 updatable by
the event organizer, it no longer relies on manual updating by web staff - the
web code team is replicating this for the National CFI list and for the RedStars
airshows and team signup pages. This means those who wrote in wanting to
update their CFI data or add data, or join redstars, will soon no longer have
to wait for RPA web volunteers to update info - you the members will update,
real time, your own information.

A good friend of mine would like to come down and shoot some air-to-air shots during
the gathering. He is a professional and his work has appeared in national
warbird magazines.
He would like to set up enough paying missions to make the trip worthwhile. He
will also need a pilot and a plane for the time he is down there. He CANNOT shoot
from a Yak-52 and would prefer a C-172/Bonanza/Baron with the doors off.
He really does to do some nice work. So, if there is anyone planning on being down
there and want some PROFESSIONAL photos taken of their airplane, let me know
and I will pass his info along. He will also print them for you and frame if
interested.
Some of his work can be seen here...

| Subject: | Cruise Efficiency |
Getting good gas mileage over a 1000 mile x-country is something this po' boy cares
about. Longer legs also mean fewer stops, saving ground time. But ya still
gotta stop and thaw yer butt out after serious time on the 'chute.
So, I added a 15 gallon aux tank to help out some and all went well on my Tuesday
flight home. Surface temps were hovering around 100 degrees but winds aloft
were calm. Typical of gaint summertime highs in the South and Midwest. This
gave me an opportunity to do a little testing. With JPI fuel flow coupled to the
GPS I ran through various power settings at density altitudes from 4500 to
15000 feet. Quite a bit of the flight was in smooth air above the clouds.
The results were unexpected, Yes, best economy was at slow speed and worst at high
power settings but what got my attention was that the mileage "curve" was
fairly flat in the mid-range.
Published M-14P cruise settings calc'd to the following actual percent of Power:
Nominal I - 80%
Nominal II - 67%
Cruise I - 50%
Cruise II - 40%
At Cruise II showed 11.5 NM per Gallon (120KIAS) but at Cruise I yielded 8.7 GPH
while Nominal II got 8.2 GPH. A "flat" spot in the curve. Thus, (with my airplane)
savings would be small for running at Cruise I rather than Nominal II.
This is gonna take some more testing, under good flight conditions using multiple
2-way runs. Of course, differences exist between airplanes, based on W&B, type
of prop and carb settings. The object of a designer is to fly the airplane
at design CL of the wing at the most efficient power settings that yield the
desired cruise speeds.
A old saying is flying the airplane "on the step", which really means at flying
at minimum profile drag of the wing at "design lift" while the engine is running
in it's sweet spot. Hard to achieve sometimes. More testing ahead.

Hi Guys,
I remember a while back one of the list members was writing a Formation
Aerobatics Manual. I have lost the email and would like to know if he has
finished it and how I can go about getting hold of a copy.

One thing that is apparent to me from OSH-- we need to make a serious effort
to get more guys to install smoke systems. They simply looked spectacular
at any altitude in the large formations.
Congrats to RedStars for getting the low altitude in the Saturday show.
Who'd have thought that would happen 3 or 4 years ago!
Glad everyone made it home safe. A fun week!
Jay

20 bucks per print from an Epson printer plus shipping costs seems high. Why
so much for a single print?

Gents,
I have had a few inquiries about photos from ARS 2006....... If anyone
wants prints, let me know. They will be $20 each including shipping, and
$10 for each additional print that I can fit in the tube. Just look at this
website:

Absolutely concur. Like horsepower and boobs, you can't have too much.
