No idea on engine swap, and hope that I don't find out anytime soon My other hobby is Jeeps. And we have a saying Just Empty Every Pocket Multiply that by 100 for this airplane

Made it home. Like the speeds at that high power setting, but sure didn't like the fuel burn Thanks all.

So I should expect the CHT to be high at first? For how long will it stay that way?

Had to have a cylinder replaced due to a bad valve on my IO-550 in my Columbia 400 I was away from home so my AP supervised from afar to the local high dollar shop on the field of a Class C airport Supposed to pick it up today It's about a 3.5 hour flight home. My A&P suggests I fly it around...

Fort Worth And with the lake 7' low I still have 13' of water under the dock I used google earth to look at property history to gauge the lake levels before I even looked at one.

An analogy. I have a lake house that I live in full time. We are in a drought and the lake is down 7'. With high interest rates, prices have dropped $125 a foot for any sales happening. Do the math. My house is 7000 sq feet But the market listings are still at that inflated price. I can...

Out of proportion sure. But until some out of proportion action is taken, the pendulum will not reverse course for these nut jobs. Was it out of proportion for the NYPD to do stop and frisk for every kid that seemed out of place in Manhattan when Gulliani was Mayor? Yup. But it cleaned up...

I don't know about that. The only question should be whether or not a second clip is needed.

Dan Gryder not landing in a corn field this year?

Welker Farms on YouTube has multiple older Big Buds they use to farm. Seem to work great on those huge fields in Montana

It is very hard to get both tanks completely full on my 400. If you don't shake the wing and go back to the first wing after filling up the second, you will only get 45 per side. At least in mine I operate out of a 3500 ft strip. I very rarely fill it to the brim unless I'm getting cheap fuel...

The reason for testing is to determine if it was bad. The fuel was put in the plane in Mexico and then flown home to Texas. From takeoff it didn't feel right it's not about water, the mechanic thinks there is something like mogas mixed in It has a distinct odor.

I notified the airport, but you see, the airport is in Mexico. They weren't too concerned as I made it home.

Is there a lab I can send some avgas to get tested? I could write a whole history of this that has had my plane down for the last two months, with me telling two different mechanics that I think it's bad gas.....to finally getting a mechanic to drain the tanks and put fresh fuel in to find out...

The biggest mystery of my life. What will real estate prices do in the next 12-24 months We are meeting with a broker to decide whether or not to list our house and to do a market analysis. They of course will come back with this is a perfect time to sell. in the mean time we've been looking...
