Paul,

    One additional advantage with the 93 rotor housings is that the

water

galleys near the spark plugs come already machined with the grooves to
promote coolant turbulence and better cooling in that area.

Good point Ed. Did you have a nice flight home from S&F? How are the

EGT's?

Paul Lamar

Hi Paul,

Had a great flight back.  Refueled at Cross-city Florida and then went up to
9500 msl to cross my favorite swamp.  Had two points where the EGT varied by
200F for two minutes and this time I noticed the fuel flow varied by 0.2 GPH
at the same time.  I may have an idea about what might be causing the
variation (possible loose fitting fuel injector - need thicker "O" ring to
seal the neck), will check it out and let you know.

 Took 2 hours 50 minutes flying time from Lakeland to Charlotte with average
groundspeed of 183 MPH.  So it was nice to get home before the weather
closed in.

Have not heard from Chuck Dunlap so assume he stayed waiting for the front
in Texas to pass.

Great seeing you and Robin.    Must do it again sometime.
