You don't need luck, it's very simple. You just need confidence from doing
a few (hundred).

Hi Guys
What are the symptoms of carburetor Ice and has anyone seen it
happen with the 912uls 100 hp engine Today I had my
engine speeding up and slowing down..When you increase the throttle
setting the engine was like it was runing out of gas.But I had half
tanks
.i was about 5 miles from the airport so I reduced the power
and set up a glide for the runway and
got in ok ..I was at 3500 ft so I had lots of glide range as I still had
power.
The engine did not stop and I landed ok. I had this happen one time
before
when there was about 20 hours on it.I have 128 hours on it now
.It slowed like it was going to stop.
It was pulsing and increasing and reducing the power..I thought it might
have
been where i was on a long decent and the gas was not covering the
outlets from the
tank so it was sucking air..It is not a nice feeling when this happens..
What should I check to solve this problem..
I saw some dirt in my gas filter today so I will replace it..There was
no dirt
in it when it happened at 20 hours... any help would be appreciated...

| Subject: | Re: After 5 hours flight time, questions |
I had my BRS mounted similarly to where your is, only on the front side
of the firewall. The DAR warned me that the CG would be too far back,
and although the plane was well built and perfectly safe in every other
way, he insisted that the BRS be taken out and weight added forward
before the first flight! Being stupid and stubborn, I thought I knew
better and flew it like that, and though I hate to admit it, I almost
paid a heavy price for doing so! The plane was almost uncontrolable at
low speed, and I finally got it on the ground, but when it slowed during
the flare the nose took off like a homesick angel and then slammed down
on the turf, flattening the front fork. I made several passes at the
runway, using every bit of skill I had gleaned from 3,000+ hours of
flying everything from ultralights on up. When it slowed down the nose
raised, the tail dropped and it became so sluggish it was virtually
uncontrollable! Very unsafe, at least in my airplane!
I now have it mounted immediately behind the pilot/copilot seats, so
that one can use it as a head rest. I also moved the battery forward
to the front of the firewall to try to move the seriously aft CG
forward. Now it flies OK, but I'd be really concerned about the
placement of your BRS!
The only thing I had changed in the tail to move the CG backward was X
braces made of L angle aluminum as an anti-oil-canning thing, but this
probably wasn't of too much consequence. Basically the placement of my
"safety" chute almost became a "killer" chute.
I hate to admit how stupid and arrogant I was regarding the CG, but if
it saves someone else from making the same mistake, what the
heck........
What was unsafe in my plane MIGHT be safe in yours, but be very very
careful!
If you keep it like tht, be awfully sure of your weights and your
calculations regarding the CG!

Thanks guys for the advice regarding sending pics through matronics.
I have attached two pictures taken during the construction of N67MG
that show the reinforcement to the baggage compartment back wall used to
support my BRS chute. The reinforcement consists of some big gussets
with Ls on their sides, and horizontal Ls top and bottom. The heavy
vertical Ls close to the center hold the chute.
Also, see the full-height cargo door on the pilot side of the
compartment in the pictures. I can get my 20# folding bike through this
door and have cargo nets forward of the door so nothing heavy falls to
the back.
Rgds,
Les

The file and photo share is fine (but takes time) if you want the
item to stay around forever. But for one-offs you can also just attach
=9Creasonable=9D sized files to your posts.

Just send the picture as a regular attachment to your e-mail. It
will either appear as a regular attachment on a link will be added at
the bottom of the message. If the picture/file is large (more than
100,000 to 300,000 bytes or 100 to 300 kB) you might resize it.

Les Goldner,
Since the matronics 601 group have been having the discussion on AutoPilots, how
has your wing-leveler been working out with your 701?
Any inverse-yaw actions?
Just curious, and hope you are making sure that there is more air time under your
tires than ground time :-)

The Rotax 912 ULS comes with a manifold for carb heat and cold air
intake. It insures that you get the full 100 HP you paid for, by
supplying cold air to the carbs and to supply heated air for carb heat.
Did that not get installed on your 701?
