Thanks Doug Darrell

Q-200s do not need oil coolers. Oil coolers add unneeded weight, have a leak potential and rob space. The baffling needs to be correct. 235 is way too high from just taxing around. E-mail me some

Hi Jim, Nice to here from you. I'm still plugging along with my non- alternative Revmaster (420 hours). We had a great time at Oshkosh. You would have loved our campsite....lots of shade.

Say Mike, that is good news. Wish I had seen your post on your pipes before I went out and had the standard Q pipes ceramic coated. Now I am doing the individual pipes also. Ron Ron's

JIM, Thanks for the info...Steve Ham

Mike, Just make sure what you do engine-wise is good and solid. I have about 90 seconds (total time) in my Q200 (N275CH) where fuel starvation let gravity get the upper hand. I managed to get it

Mike, I don't have a picture at this point but my best guess the outlet is per plans. Maybe this helps. Also, where do you have your oil cooler mounted? I have looked in Aircraft Spruce for oil

Jim, let me put this a different way: If you will only use what already has "a gazillion hours of proven performance" you will end up with a Cessna-150, a Piper Cherokee or a Boeing 747. You won't

Kevin, I flew for 20 years with those pipes unwrapped so don't go thinking you need to change them right away. Don't wrap steel pipes. One question, can you take a picture of your air outlet? I cut

Mike, Thanks for the reply. I had only seen the request for EGT probe on your post and had not read further. OAT was about 85 F. I have the original 4 into 1 exhaust and one of the Q guy's (name

Not usually without making some other change. With the Q-2, a change of airfoil and construction of the canard is how you end up with a higher gross. Pat

I just get this after my post on oil temps! You didn't say how hot the outside air was that day... I'll assume your engine is not broke in yet. I don't know what exhaust system your using. You have

Hey, Anybody got an old (or new) EGT probe they want to sell? Mine went belly up. Please let me know off the list @ mdwyer@... Thanks, Flight report! I ran my new exhaust pipes

Guy's Got N275CH (Q200) nearly put all back together and started fast taxing again. I have about 4 hours on the engine at this point after replacing the very high compression pistons (Venolia) to

Allan, I agree. When you get the Q2 and then your Balistic Chute kinks worked out and have tested them sucessfully let us know. I'll get inline for one. Beats hitting the dirt at 100-120K. In the

Pat, Doesn't gross go up with horsepower? Ryan snip> bolt this new 3000cc, 110hp engine in its place, work out the W&B issues (the engine is around 205 pounds... useful load will go down) make

Steve, I bought new pistons and pins and cylinders from Lycon. They polished and ported the intake and exhaust cylinders, balanced and ceramic coated the pistons and installed in New Superior

Jeff, Fan and I are flying her Beech Sundowner east today and will try to come to the party. James Postma (253) 584-1182 9:00 to 8:00
