I have just received a reply from GRT on the coolant temp sensor connection to their EIS 4000 - they confirm that Aux. 4 can actually be used by the arrangement shown attached with the VDO type temp
Hi, Scott, Congratulations - just been there, know the feeling! Enjoy! Best regards, Svein LN-SKJ After 5 years my conventional gear Europa N108EA took to the skys over Zephrhills Florida 16 Sep 2006
Lockwood sells an oil cooler thermostat, presumably suitable for Rotax 912S. - Anyone with good experience using this to keep oil temp acceptably high (problem at my latitudes)? - Does it come with g
Thank you very much to all who responded to my questions regarding oil cooler thermostat. What is noticeable, however, is that it appears that few have actually installed a thermostat. I favour a the
Thank you all very much for the additional input for further reflections. I am still not 100 pct certain what to do - or how to do it - but I have a 100 pct better basis on which to make a conclusion
All, The reference for Vne is CAS (calibrated air speed), not IAS by definition. If your ASI has been properly calibrated, you read it off the instrument as equal to IAS. As to the Vne verification (
Mike, I recently fitted the Skydrive kit, less the reading instrumet because I connected the temp. sender to an available auxiliary input channel in my Grand Rapids EIS. As recommended by Skydrive I
I have now received a small jar of Nye's Ultra Heavy PG-44A vibration dampening grease. Very interesting properties, just by the feel of it between two fingers. To those already using this (or simila

Andrew, I recommend you combine this fix with fillling the void to make the tip end "square" (not protruding flanges). See attached sketch, illustrating how to make up for the too large cut-off at th
I did this mod. during the build stage, and I am very happy that I did. Amazing how much that little extra space means, and the surface your upper arm comes against is wider/flatter then the standard
Will, Bob, The attached may give you an impression of the added width - not much in mm/inches, but "it's all a matter of perception" also in this case - it feels good. The indent in the door of cours
Greg, You may mix to different mods - the bubble windows (to give more head clearance for tall pilots, and which I believe must be implemented when ordering the kit - cannot be retrofitted?) and the
In my previous posting on this subject today, I wrote that the bubble windows could not be retrofitted. Now, this was my mix-up of bubble windows and the "high-top" version, where the whole upper fus

Jeremy, To your question: I have used this headset for about two years, but have no experience with other ANR sets. To my ears they are as effective (and very noticeably effective) in my Europa with
Jos, Congratulations on getting your pride in the air, and safely back onto the runway every time! I, too, had significantly lower temps on the two front cylinders than on the two rear ones, until I
Jeff, I hope the fix you describe will solve the cooling issue. When I did the firewall-forward work, Andy Draper (at that time eith EA2004) recommended that I closed the lower NACA - it should never
