Trout fishing. Ozark flying. More rivers, springs, and lakes than you count within a 1 hour drive. Looking forward to it. Tired of living with 7 million people.
Many airplanes have this. My Grumman Tiger had a big plaque glued to the instrument panel "Do not operate at 1850 to 2200 rpm" due to the prop harmonics in that particular install and engine combo. Whole point in TV testing is to find those rpms, but some people think they can TLAR it... 🤦♂️
Swift is working on/testing a full 100 octane version of their fuel. Eventually something will shut down the one remaining refinery in the UK still making the TTL additive and that's when things get interesting for a couple of years until someone can ramp up production of the alternatives...
So I guess Peter is going to be inventing an all aluminum rotary diesel next to replace the Audi engine ? Took a couple of webinars on rotary engines and all good !
He's way too deep in sunk cost fallacy at this point to ever take that route. Frankly with the complete lack of resources, tools, shop space, help, and money I think we will get the "indefinite grounding after the first real incident" that I predicted way back when. It was fun while it lasted...
PM: "Normalcy bias almost killed me, guess I need to be more careful"
PM 2 mins later: "Well, there was 8psi of oil pressure until the motor quit, so I'm sure the engine itself is fine"
