KR> Flying Today ?

[MICHAEL SYLVESTER]

Dana ask. Anyone flying today ?
 It was so beautiful this mourning I jokingly ask the wife to go flying with me 
(She's always declined in the past.) To my stunned amazement she said, sure. So 
we spent the day up over Lake Guntersville in our 150 and then stopped in at 
Sammy's Touch And Go restaurant at Pell City (KPLR) for an early dinner. Life 
is good.

Yeah, I was.  But not the KR.  Had the other plane out today.  I'll get
the KR out of the hangar and head out for a $50 breakfast burrito
tomorrow. :o)

KR> flying today

[joe.kr2s.buil...@juno.com]

Dana,
I thought I might see you today at the Virginia regional at SFQ. It was a 
beautiful day and they had a great turn out with some beautiful planes. Yes I 
did forget my camera. But I did get another 4.3 hours and great flying weather 
and for the corvair 5th bearing conversation I turned over a hundred hours on 
Dan's 5th bearing and nearly 400 hours on the high volume oil pump.
Happy flying Guys,
Joe Horton

> it is not recommended due to resonance vibration.

Seems odd to me that it would be resonance... Wouldn't that change with prop
pitch, blade length, rpm, etc?

Wow, I only asked a couple of simple questions, both of which seemed 
reasonable.  I am sorry that you choose to be so anti-American, especially 
considering everything this country has provided for you and others here.  My 
original question was prompted by the fact that this week many proud and 
observant Americans reflected on the supreme sacrifices this country has made 
for others, including over 140,000 men who will never come home from Europe and 
who are forever to be what you might consider "emperialist occupiers" of those 
countries.  I never mentioned politics, and I would certainly not care to 
discuss them, especially on this forum.

Didn't say the US was bad as your twisted Rush Limbaugh reply indicated, just 
we acted like total assholes for the last eight years.  We deserve the 
snobbish, egomaniac, imperialist labels, much like your nearsided reply, earned 
by our imperialist actions of the eight years.

 November), and it looks like I'm going to break 760 hours in the KR.  The EIS 
info is how I really keep up with flights and hours.  I name each flight a 
"flight number" with a little description in the title like "LCL" or 
"OSH-return", and the hobbs hours are in the file.  Number of landings is 
easy...I just scroll through the airspeed and altitude columns to find where I 
slowed down below 50 mph, and count each one of those as a landing.  It's 
either a landing or a crash,

I don't know about the 62" Warp but my three blade 54" weighs in at 1974gms
for the hub and 842gms for each of the blades. Total is 4.32 kg or only 9.5
lbs. I just replaced the Warp blades with Aussie Bollies (similar to Kool
blades) which turn the other way due my new gearbox. These are 60" yet weigh
only 684gm each which, with the same hub gives only 3.85 kg or 8.5 lbs. I
doubt you can get lighter ones. I sent a photo of the two blade types to
Mark L a while back which came from Murray Green in Canada.

I think 2 blade on 4 cylinders could have less balance/vibration issues than
a 3 blade if clocked correctly. Similarly a 3 blade on a 6 cylinder might be
inherently betterjust a personal view...no evidence here William...sorry
:-)   

We've had several instances of VWs (and 4 cyl Jabirus for that matter)
disliking composite 3 bladers.

If the prop has an aluminum hub to support the blades, I would not use it on
a direct drive VW.  5 knows failures of Warp Drive 3 blade props on direct
drive VW based engines, personal experience over 28 years.  Unclear wheather
its torsional vibration or simply overloading the crank because of the
spinning weight, or a combination of both.  The 3 blade Warp Drive 62" props
weigh in at about 13 lbs if memory serves.  



During airboats years, I did run a Power Fin 3 blade on a stock 1600 cc
pusher for about 50 hours. The Power Fin  weighed 7 lbs. The big difference
is in the weight of the blades. Not enough running time to draw a
conclusion.
