No I haven't been up that high. However I had a 30" map climb from 0 to 12000' at mtow two days ago and no issues. Max temp was 225f. The mechanical acts as a emergency system if you like. Mine has t

I seem to recall a discussion on this but I can't find it on the list. At 12000 ft DA at which I was flying today, the difference is between IAS and TAS is 20 kts or roughly 20%. Thanks in advance Wi

Bud Does this apply even at the upper altitude range ....say 13k or 15k? Will Yep Graham, Airplanes only feel air pressure, not the velocity of the molecule alone. Dynamic pressure is =C2=BD Density

That is a possibility and it was a warm day. It did look kinda like that too. I am going to add some plastic tubing to take cool air from the intakes to the back of the panel next weekend. Will Willi

My experience is that you need to lay it on thick in the middle of the bond and then ensure that it squeezes out the sides. This avoids having voids in the bond. I spent quite a lot of time with a hi
