I fly from a field elevation of about 5000' msl. On takeoff, I can get full rpm and climb 1000' fpm easily. Cruise at 5200 rpm gets around 90 mph. Bring the prop into coarse and I can get 105 mph. I use a different brush set for the prop, its available from http://www.sportplanellc.com/ This is not an endorsement, but it has worked well for me.

From: "Roger Lee" If you are happy with just 100LL stop here. You won't like where this is going. This effects us all even in other countries because one tends to follow the other at some point. If you are tired of someone saying we can't have 91 octane, read on. It's time to pick a side and take 5 minutes to email. Our lives as people are good because someone didn't just say ok. Some took the time to make change and made it better for all of us. If we choose to sit on the sideline and just go along then we deserve what we get. I would implore all to take a minute and email these two people and any other fuel administrator in other companies. I will post on as many aviation websites as possible and I would you all to pick a side and stand up to be heard and maybe, just maybe we might effect change. I for one don't want to roll over. You are about to read a bulletin about the use of Chevron ground fuel verses aviation fuel. Then I have a response. Don't sit back and pick my memo apart, use that time to write your own and be heard. Post this on all your aviation websites. Let them hear a nation wide voice. Send your emails to: LIMG(at)chevron.com kayalbitz(at)chevron.com or any other fuel company administrator. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.

At the Zenith dinner Mathew got up and talked about all the improvements being a culmination of all the things from their different aircraft worldwide. It will make the aircraft better and reduce their inventory requirements. He also discussed the touchy subject of wings and have had no conclusive evidence from NTSB or any of the problem aircraft which indicate same type of failure. NTSB has a full time engineer investigating these things and they have not asked Zenith to change anything. I actually thanked him for the comments. -------- Ron Lendon, Clinton Township, MI Corvair Zodiac XL, ScrapBuilder ;-) http://www.mykitlog.com/rlendon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=197045#197045 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message zenith-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Zenith-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/zenith-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/zenith-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
