    Back in the air! Hope you guys enjoyed this one, I sure am enjoying the extra power! I didn't notice a huge difference until I went and flew with Ty (who used to be perfectly matched with me) now I can pull him on takeoff and out climb him! Woo!

      Trent Palmer whats the origin of the big bore kit ?

    • @coreywelch
      @coreywelch Před 6 lety

      Hey Trent, I'm definitely enjoying the content you are putting out. I'm a newly minted Private Pilot and have been reading a ton about experimentals. Was reading about the Glasair III. Super fast cross-country plane Do you have to have the "repair man" cert to be able to do this level of work on your plane?
      I've thought about building a plane and have been doing my own auto mechanics for about 20 years now, including engine builds. It just seems way to expensive to have someone do all that work on certified aircraft.

    • @JustPlaneChris
      @JustPlaneChris Před 6 lety +6

      I'm not Trent, but I can answer your question. :) You do not need the repairman certificate to do all the work on an Experimental, even if you didn't build it. If you don't have the repairman certificate for the plane you will need an A&P (not A&P/AI) to sign off the annual condition inspection. Otherwise, you can do anything and everything to the plane.

    • @coreywelch
      @coreywelch Před 6 lety

      Chris Boultinghouse that helps a lot. Thanks for the info.

    • @DarkFidelity
      @DarkFidelity Před 6 lety

      So you don't need an A&P to sign off an engine overhaul for example? You can do that yourself without a repairmen certificate? I did not know this. That's AWESOME.

    A couple years back an elderly man flew a Kitfox into 3GV, he was touring the U.S. in it. I gave him a ride to the local hotel and got to talk a bit. Totally envious I became a fan of the Kitfox after that. Love the videos, keep on keepin on.

  • @timothygodwin7049
    @timothygodwin7049 Před 6 lety

    I like this video. I was nice to see some maintenance getting done with the 912. I just did my annual online training for IA and they had an intro to that engine. It is amazing how popular these engines have gotten. I am glad you have your engine back together, bolted on and back to flying. I have to pull my engine when I get home but it is an 0-360 lycoming. Now I am just waiting for your next video.

    Had a rotax 582 for years. It used to leak oil from the line that took the oil from the tank to between the cylinders. The other line went into the bottom of the block but I replaced both and replaced the ring clamps too. Don't overtighten them though

    Oils leaks are easy, they have UV dye to put in the oil. Little motor probably take half of the one ounce bottle, pour it in a run for a few min. Round up a flashlight with uv {blacklight} lens or bulb, turn shop lights off and have a look...

  • @sziltner

    Hi Trent, love the videos.
    Regarding your comment on mixture on the Rotax. Wasn't sure if you have full EGT monitoring, however I've found on both rotaxes and Jabiru's that the bing carbys to a terrible job of altitude compensation for the mixture.
    As this was an issue for me, I fitted a Hacman mixture controller, it was a piece of piss to fit. I like it so much I made a video of it in action and I sent it to the Hacman guys to put on their website - greekskyadventures
    I highly recommend one, particularly for high altitude work as you'll definitely get more grunt from leaning off. Would be nice to hear what your egt temps are and how they vary when you go up high...

    Interesting that I should catch this now. I recently took a trip from MI to Tulsa OK to document the building of my IO-360 by Barrett Precision Engines, and brought it back with me. It's stored in my garage area for now, but I hope to be bolting it on the fuselage soon. I documented the trip and the build on my own CZcams page, if you're interested... look for Barrettrip 2018 movie.

    Hi Trent, Great video! Very cool that you do your own mechanical work. A definitive advantage that comes with building an owning an experimental. I'm curious about the time line between tearing down the engine and getting back in the air. Seems like you had a pretty quick turn around, were there any delays or setbacks? Thanks!
