Blitz,
Use some of that California sunshine and be Green. I'd use a suitably darkened
frypan, preferably conditioned by preparing blackened redfish outside the Marin
Hanger Bistro on a Viking propane stove. Scatter the dessicant liberally in
the pan and set out in that famous Marin Sunshine and let bake through the day
until a suitable color develops. Be sure and seal up before the evening dew approaches.
Just about the time the Marin FBO begins the daily Wine and Cheese
Sundown Special, for airport residents only please.
Works for me in Florida where sunshine is delivered on a wholesale basis.

All,
I wanted to report a Jeff Linebaugh sighting.... Though it's been
about a year since he's been seen flying his CJ (sold), I'm happy to
report I have received intel (photos verified as authentic) that he
is again flying something with a Red Star on it.... It's been so
long since he's been airborne in a mount of his own, however, I fear
he might try to chase Donner, Blitzen, and Rudolph around the world
in a few days....so please, don't be alarmed if you see a strange
sight in the sky...the commies aren't trying to shoot down your
Christmas...it'll merely be Jeff getting back in the saddle...

Craig - thanks for your suggestions. In Marin, at Nancy Pelosi
International, all of our spacious, well appointed and climate controlled hangars
have
60" plasma HDTVs. I expect our fuel valet, Maurice, can engineer a way to
harness some of that energy to dry the desiccant. Alternatively, our
color-coordinated solar powered TUGs have an accessory port for fondue' pots,
which I
believe could be repurposed for desiccant treatment.
We will keep you advised.
Happy Ramadan!
Dave

Andre,
I just had the first annual inspection done on my CJ6 with the Russian M14P
engine. I had Dennis Savarese come out to Salt Lake City and train me
while I assisted in the annual. He is very thorough, to say nothing of
knowledgeable and it was some of the best money I have ever spent. We had a
great time although we did work our proverbial butts off in a cold hanger.
On my last flight before the annual, I couldn't get the gear up. There was
a pneumatic leak hissing on the firewall, which I found in a worn connection
on the T-fitting (Doug Sapp sent me what I needed to replace it). That also
led to my taking the stainless steel water separator apart to replace the
filters. I had just recently purchased the aircraft from an impeccably
thorough owner and it's upkeep was immaculate. That was why I was so
surprised to find about a teaspoon of rust on one side and a teaspoon of
mineral deposits on the other. Of course I cleaned it all out and replaced
the filters as well as running pipe cleaners through the tubing to try to
determine if they had rust in them. They didn't... but it had to come from
somewhere.
We found the culprit when Dennis (Da' Godfadder) and I checked the main air
tank. It was filled with rust, a potentially really bad thing. Needless to
say, Doug got more business when I ordered a new one. Dennis said that it
appeared that this condition occurred with the owner previous to the one I
purchased my airplane from, which made sense.
Well, Dennis is back home in his warn little nest in Alabama and I'm just
waiting for warmer weather to go take my extra large baggage compartment and
super-dooper smoke system out so that I can get to the air tank and replace
it. Again, for relatively little cost and immense rewards in getting to
know your engine, I would highly recommend having Dennis Savarese come out
and give you the course he teaches.
Best of luck, Happy Holidays, and fly safe'

He's now learning what it's like to ride a tricycle backwards at 90 mph! He
has a Harmon Rocket. Painted in atleast the Red Star mandatory paint
scheme! It has a RED STAR on the tail and wings. Actually, it is a good
looking airplane for a non radial that is!

Happy Ramadan? I thought the Socialist Republic of San Francisco home of the great
liberal socialist statesman, Nancy Pelosi, was gender and religion neutral.
Well excluding the YAK and CJ drivers out there that is!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the soggy South, May God grant you guys
blue skies so you can get somemore of those great photos over the Golden Gate!
Fly safe in the New Year!

Blitz,
Use some of that California sunshine and be Green. I'd use a suitably darkened
frypan, preferably conditioned by preparing blackened redfish outside the Marin
Hanger Bistro on a Viking propane stove. Scatter the dessicant liberally in
the pan and set out in that famous Marin Sunshine and let bake through the day
until a suitable color develops. Be sure and seal up before the evening dew approaches.
Just about the time the Marin FBO begins the daily Wine and Cheese
Sundown Special, for airport residents only please.
Works for me in Florida where sunshine is delivered on a wholesale basis.

Craig - thanks for your suggestions. In Marin, at Nancy Pelosi International,
all of our spacious, well appointed and climate controlled hangars have 60" plasma
HDTVs. I expect our fuel valet, Maurice, can engineer a way to harness some
of that energy to dry the desiccant. Alternatively, our color-coordinated
solar powered TUGs have an accessory port for fondue' pots, which I believe could
be repurposed for desiccant treatment.
We will keep you advised.
Happy Ramadan!
Dave
