Yeah, and maybe they can loan you a turbo to get back home
:-)
I'll carrying a couple of spare turbos
everywhere I go. :)
News on the "turbo
from Oz". I thought it would be somewhere over the Pacific by now, but
it's still in Oz. Apparently Max sold his VSR testing machine, but his
fancy new one hasn't come in from UK yet, so wanting to be certain it was
perfect, he sent the turbo to the shop who bought the tester (no extra
charge). A VSR spins a turbocharger up to 120,000 rpm with compressed
air & checks it for vibration "balance" under simulated load conditions
& also checks for any oil leaks.
Hopefully
it'll be on the way early next week.
No big
rush. It's way too hot to work in the hangar anyway.
John (is
there anyone new on the list who didn't see Rusty's first
cowl?).
