I agree. I've never used an oxygen system before but would like to install an emergency system in the IV-P I'm building. For starters, if there was a rapid decompression at altitude how quickly can a system be activated? Mask or cannula- should they be worn around your neck and plugged in just in case? Flow adjustments- I don't know enough yet to even ask intelligent questions. Thanks- Bill Wade

I for one, would like to see LML return to its roots because in my experience, it's been adrift for a while. In other words, discussion of building techniques and problem solving and best building practices generally as they apply to our Lancairs. As well as interspersed with discussion of
how to safely and responsibly fly what a lot of us put together in our basements over many years. How about the topic of approach to stalls and spin avoidance. Gee, we haven't heard much on this subject in quite a while. :-) How about portable oxygen solutions, is there a clear winner out there? I plan to test the upper end of the altitude envelope in my 360 this year so I need to know.
And as for pre purchase advise for a 235/320/360, do your homework and go get a ride or 2 or 3 or more. Is there anyone left out there who does not know that the 235 gross weight was increased to 1500 lbs over 14yrs ago?
Oh, and here's a suggestion that may send a few people running for the hills, opinions may be interesting but really ought to be backed up by fact.


Cheers,
