Warning!: From what Juan has written on this newsgroup, he hasn't been
able start his engine in a Year and a half. Warning!: From what Juan has written on this newsgroup, this engine doesn't have it's fuel control unit that would protect it from a turbine over temp. Warning!: From the description of this engine in Janes, this engine doesn't have a turbine disk failure system. This makes Juan's airplane lighter than all other BD-5Js and won him recognition as having the lightest non-flying, non-running BD-5J in the world to be recognized by a beer company. Warning!: If you are near this airplane while its running be very worried. If the turbine over temps and starts shedding turbine blades, there's nothing to stop them from going through fuselage structural members, flight controls, control cables, fuel tanks and anyone standing nearby. Did Juan forget to mention all this in his ad? Rich |
