Having that many screwed fittings is just ridiculous.. It's like a prototype of something. Nev

I'm too risk averse to comment on that. I don't even know where it IS. Nev

That's one I haven't heard B4. Was she referring to heat exchangers? Nev

A lot of Imported cars did not have big enough radiator capacity for competition or really hot days (Australian Conditions)and if the area couldn't be increased they had to be thicker and I used fork Lift ones. The LADA Niva had a sturdy radiator. You need that on outback roads so they don't crack on the sidestraps. Also rubber Mounted adequately. None of this is rocket science. Where there was A V8 VERSION or one for the Automatic trans just use that. Oil coolers can go under the base of the spin on oil filter. No pipes at all. Nev

They wear out in the bore fairly quickly, But run well. Are they still made? nev

Never having to warm the engine up would save time. Engine reliability should be better. How about for Powered Gliders? Nev

Those Belstaff Waxed canvas Jackets left Black stuff all over the cream and Blue seats at the Paragon Cafe. . Full Leathers is your own Body Bag. Very tidy. There were many times when My only vehicle was a Motor Bike. Nev

When it's aircooled you don't Have all this problem with rubber PIPES, coolant and pressure caps, pumps and leaks. (dare I mention). Then you can FLY in the AIR. Nev

I have it specifically signed off in my logbook on a CPL giving me authority to teach it.. It can give you a minimum energy loss course reversal, when you get it right.. Nev

They said it was a stuffed Up, wing over but if he got inverted is would be like falling out of a barrel roll.. Clean aeroplanes get fast, fast when the nose is pointed straight at the ground. Nev

Conrods generally fail in tension. Changing direction near the top of the stroke. They want to keep going. Nev

It's certain that the speed of the Plane would affect the radiator you use. Also the Power output of the engine.. and the ambient air temp where you might operate. Shutters or Cowl Gills anybody? Heat and drag control. A hotter running motor is more efficient in a technical sense. Then there's the Quicker warm up, and the under cowl temps after landing. Nev

I don't think we are talking about long range jet aircraft, but an electric motor for a U/L can be quite light. The power drop off at altitude doesn't happen so flying higher would save energy. Nev

It's about temps Cycles accumulating. You usually chuck a Rod when changing gear at high revs. It's a "specific" overstress. Nev

You are Meant to Know how big your plane is and where everything goes on full lock. If anything is suspiciously close someone should have their head out the window as you "inch" along. You should not get into that position in the 1st Place. IF in doubt STOP. Nev

The best type of oil cooler is one that bolts straight onto the crankcase. SOME engines just don't need them. Nev

Rotax 912 coolant radiator

It's not unusual to use two where one larger one is inconvenient. IF you want to know how effective they are, measure the radiator OUTLET temp compared with inlet. Nev
