Well I do burn it but along with 100LL in a 50/50 mix in the M-14P. Huosai's have
a lower compression ratio and my Huosai engine always did better on "pure"
mogas than 100LL. Winter-blended mogas up Nawth contains more "stuff" so I didn't
use it then.
Down "hear", 200 miles South of the Deep South, we get fine "sugar sand" in the
mogas. I had partial fuel stoppage back in September and had to extract my parachute
from my body when I finally landed safely. I found fine sand in my carb,
fuel strainer and sump.
Now I use a filtered funnel or a chamois when mogas is poured.

| Subject: | Re: HGU-55 vs David Clarke |
CJCanuck,
I have had a positive experience with Flightsuits. I opted for the -55 with the
-33 visor set. The idea was to protect the visor from scratching. I am very happy
with the result. I also went for the ANR and love it. Never did it "pop"
at any power setting. I even prefer it to my Bose X!
However, a quick word on US Federal regulations. For some reasons, "military style
helmets with communications capabilities" is listed as a weapon in the Coded
Federal Regulation (CFR). Flightsuits does NOT have an export permit, and is
thus not permitted to export their helmets to Canada. They will refuse to ship
you a helmet as it WILL be stopped by US custom and be seized.
There is an easy fix to this. The same CFR provides an exemption to Canadian citizen
and allows us to export most weapons (there is a list of weapons not exempt
and flight helmet is not on it). What you need to do is buy the helmet t your
specs, have it shipped to a friend south of the border, fly down with the
CJ, put the helmet on your head and fly back home. Canada custom will only look
for the Tax$$, they couldn't care less about the fact that the USA consider
the helmet to be a military item. In Canada, it's a fancy headset.
That is how I got mine back in 2006. Completely legal method to get a great tool.
Cheers,
Dan

Are you sure its capitalism? In many case's when you see this big difference
in a local area make
note of which Government agency own's? run's the airport and how much
Flowage fee/tax they have put
on the avgas to keep the peasants off of the jet center / airline turf.

You can also use www.airnav.com to find the lowest prices locally or
enroute. If you go after the lowest prices be prepared that they often run
out and you should have fuel for an alternate. Just happened to me - I got
fuel outbound but they were empty 2 days later on the return.

The Huosai engine is designed to run on 73 octane, unleaded avgas,
otherwise known as "white gas". It loves plain ol' regular auto gas.
Spark plugs last longer too.
I bought a 100 gal tank and pump for my pickup truck. I paid for it
in avgas savings in four months.

I recently put the headsets inc. helmet anr Kit in my hgu55.
The difference is unbelievable compared to a headset (due to tighter
helmet
fit) and compared to the HGU standard leather triangle foam and standard
speakers.
It really sounds like starting one of those fancy L-39s. Even at high
power, it is silent.
The only drawback - if it is a drawback, is there is not separate ear
volume
control.
I set up my system with power adapter and the 9v battery pouch (in case
I go
into another aircraft)
Call if you would like to discuss. Brooks at headsets Inc was very good
in
getting me exactly what I needed - needs may vary based on what you
already
have. The Kit comes with the Oregon aero seals.

I have plans on installing two Advanced Flight Systems units in my 52.
These units are much more value for the money. Currently I have been
installing Dynon units. After installing and Advanced Flight Systems unit
in another aircraft, I was so impressed with the features and how this
system performs, I am putting two in my own aircraft.
If you are wondering I am both a Dynon and Advanced Flight Systems Dealer,
however based on room functionality I wanted the Advanced Flight System.

| Subject: | Flight suits, leathers and conflict resolution |
Mark,
Just to clarify, I believe I provided you the policy vie email that was retained
from the YPA in it's modified form that is posted online at the website - the
RPA vice president is David McGirt.
Again, my advice is to communicate this issue through admin@flyredstar.org, as
I've seen you have done, and so should others with opinions that they feel need
to be heard on this issue!! The yak list, although a valuable tool, tends to
express the human tendancy to enjoy conflict.
I just got back from Kieth Codes california superbike school, we all had to wear
his type of leathers, even after signing multiple hold harmless letters that
he had no responsibility for our personal well being if we highsided in a turn,
but the clothing had no wiggle room, no biker leathers, no breathable fabrics
except dead cow zippered or one piece, armored, including racing boots and
what not...he wasn't paying my medical bills for face slapping the pavement, and
in the desert, its hot...
...And you can imagine, I didn't question it - I was just thankful that so many
talented folks put together such an awsome program, and I had an opportunity
to learn from the best around, btw, I recommend it highly to any rider of sport,
touring or cruiser...many lessons apply track to street.
I'm sure this will get discussed by those at admin - again, if anyone else feels
strongly about it, they should also write admin@flyredstar.org
Now about those helmets, smoke systems, valve clearances, monoxide levels....
Drew

Hello Scott,
I have been looking at your pics with interest as I have been thinking about the
BM Lite in a 52. A couple semi-related questions... Are those annunciator
lights stock (the ones outside the G-meter/annunciator/compass pack)? Also, how
did you manage to get an XPND between the intercom panel and the primer???
VR,
LawnDart

| Subject: | HGU-68 vs HGU-55 |
I decided on an HGU-68/P helmet when I was looking for a helmet. It has the advantage
of, according to Gentex (the manufacturer), having the lowest possible
profile of any helmet. The helmet has a track for the visor (single hand operation)
and the knob to move the visor is off to the left side (not on top).
In addition, they are now making a gradient visor for the helmet. Tinted on top
to clear on the bottom.
See it at www.gentexcorp.com.
They are often available on eBay where I purchased mine.

I agree- when flying at an RPA event in Rome wear nomex. If you're in
America at an RPA event then celebrate your Americanism and tell the tyrants
to piss off. As for voting on the matter, I guess we could vote on whether
everyone should mind their own business, but tyrants are big on voting.

LawnDart,
The annunciator lights are stock as far as I know. My 52 was produced in
1982 (hence the tail number N8252) so it is an earlier model. I've seen a
picture of one other early model with this configuration so I'm guessing it
was changed in later production lots. I have never been able to confirm
that. Anyone else know about this?
The xponder was installed prior to my purchase of the airplane. As I
understand it my primer is reversed for a '52 and was taken from a '50.
Cylinder prime is to the left and fuel system is right. I think it is also
located higher on the panel than a stock '52. Again Having never flown
another '52 or a '50 I don't know what's normal for either one. This is
another question for the group. But I do know that the change was made
specifically to accommodate the xponder.
Scott
