Below is the link for the 10 day forecast for Lakeland , bring your Sun
Screen !!! For Canadians who are not snowbirds better bring SPF 50 to
cover up that Great White North skin. :-)

I put a Superior XP-360 in my CH640 because it was thousands less than the Lycoming
and fits the FWF kit without modifications. It's a nice engine, and they
do issue service letters and AD's if any problems develop with the parts. Remember,
not only does it use the same parts as the Vantage certified engine, most
of the parts are certified replacement parts for Lycomings. If there is a problem,
you will hear about it. If the XP-360 wasn't available or was completely
untested, I would definitely have bought a Lycoming.

We made a nice cover for our fuel sender in the header tank of our 601
using fibreglass to cover a chemist's watchglass (but a child's ball of
suitable diameter would be just as good, to use as a mold; I've also seen
someone use the bottom of a jar, taking advantage of the curved-up
perimeter). A 3/4 inch hat brim was added later. This has the advantage
of being able to sand the hat brim to fit the curvature of the turtle deck
exactly (or the wing curvature in the case of wing tanks). The hat brim
was formed initially by laying a sheet of wax paper over the turtle deck.
The circular cover is held in place by 8 small sheet metal screws. A
nitrile ring gasket about 3/4 inches wide provides a bit of compression
spring to hold the sheet metal screws in place, and seals against rain.
This took a bit of time to make. The end product is nice. We all have
our own ways of wasting time!

Hi Michel,
I was told that the EA-81 Subaru has been revved supercharged to 10,000 rpm
and they hold together, so I take off at 4900 rpm, climb to altitude at
95 mph,
let off as EGTs climb thru 1400 deg f. I cruise at 125 if needed at
4800 rpm.
It does 5100 rpm maxed out with 17-deg on the prop, its top end is 133 mph.
Flying locally, I prefer low to mid range rpms of 4200 to 4500 to save
fuel at
105 to 115 mph. I think the Subaru will last longer if one conserves
rpms in
cruise, but don't understand a corelation between loading at low or high
speeds.
There doesn't seem to be any one rpm that doesn't work well in the
Subaru but
for the point where belt climb is noticed. Havn't had any of that of
lately.
Power loading would seem to even out if the mixtures are correct through
the full range. This is probably quite different from a Subaru in a car
where
power loading is linked more to inertia and the engine heads work more
against the tires on the street.

An SPF of 30 will do it.
CU there.
