Europa-List: Re: Ruedi Vogal engine failure!

Richard,

Make a tray or other effective shield. Do not bother with
trying to seal an exhaust joint. Nothing will withstand the 1500F
temperatures at full throttle pressure.

I was an early victim of this problem in 2004 during my initial
test flights. It was Phil Lockwood himself who finally figured this
one out and gave us the diagnostic test of soot on the float bowl.
