YMMV Maybe you should argue with historical fact instead of novels or CAD drawings. Might learn something. Here's just one example from http://www.aopa.org/asf/ntsb/searchResults.cfm?tss=14 MIA07LA028 Narrative Type: NTSB FINAL NARRATIVE (6120.4) The pilot stated that a few minutes after departing, while at 1,000 snip- I don't need to research anything Dan, I told you I have experienced it personally on more than one occasion and found your statement to be false. Especially in the context that you initially offered it. Just because your engine has failed completely, and due only to carb ice, doesn't mean you can't save you bacon with carb heat. Furthermore, a windmilling engine can be very helpful in supplying the time (and circulation) required to do so without having to rely on the battery or starter. Can I assure everyone that they will ALWAYS be able to clear a frozen carb with just carb heaT? Hell no. But that has zero to do with the disussion, WINDMILLING. So, where do you think the carb heat comes from in a windmilling engine that has stopped firing because carb ice has completely iced over the fuel nozzle? Have you ever worked on an airplane and seen how the carb heat works? Do you think it's electric or something? Dan |
