Lancair IV-P down at Hilton Head

and you know what causes that?
a blocked breather tube.
my aircraft had a cheap tube made from auto heater tube.
trouble is it isnt fuel proof and had softened to the point of closing
over with airloads.
I replaced it with the proper tube and it is still in pristine
condition 10 years later. ...for all of $20.
lets hope it wasnt a dumb mistake that took someones life.
This was a turbine engined plane, wasn't it?
