Another first flight.
Happened today. Winds were kind and I took the chance. The 25 min flight
went fine, took off smoothly and touched down nicely without a bounce inspite of 7kts cross wind. There is some tweaking to be done; radio worked intermittently - lost communications with traffic, but the standby airport rescue crew covered for me; the engine was near top temperature limit at climb; and oil temperature was high - at only 70F outside, maybe I need bigger oil cooler for the Franklin? Any Franklin experts out there? Recommended oil cooler size? ------------------------------------------- Paul Lee, SQ2000 canard www.abri.com/sq2000 |
