Colyn,
I refer to your LML posting on
12/01/04 regarding speed brakes. You asked the question
'should I persevere with my old-style mechanical speed brakes'? My
interest as an Australian at the same level of build (IVP), is that I also have
the old style brakes and am similarly questioning their use.
Did you come to a
decision?
What influenced that
decisiion?
Would really appreciate
your input.
Regards

Subject: [LML] IVP low power settings vs.
pressurization
I've been looking at long range profiles and
noticing that a lot of the interesting range is below
28" MP. I've heard this is the least that
will keep you pressurized at altitude.
Is this really true?
Anyone done anything to tighten up their airframe
so that they can run at lower power settings?
thanks,
Colyn Case
