Before You Buy Slick Magnetos

Time for today's episode.
I had no trouble reaching a live person on
the phone at Unison on Monday. The even overnighted
a new harness (I had to promise to return the old one).
Put it in today, and the problem is still there. I'll
know tomorrow if they're as forthcoming with a new mag.

So much for flying to CA next week. :P

Final scene:

Steve Carter at Unison arranged for me to pick up a
new mag at a local shop today. Installed it this
evening and everything checks out great. Through
all of this I had no troule reaching a live person
on the phone at Unison, they bent over backwards
to help me, and tried to work within my very pressing
time window. I didn't make it, I'll have to leave
the airplane here when I move and come back for it
later, but they tried their hardest to make it work.

The upside is that the engine feels smoother than it
has since I first started it (~25 flight hours ago).
The downside is that if you count build time
I'm at something like 100 maintenance man-hours
per flight hour g.
