Sonex's Aeroinjector says nothing about it, and one of the Sonex guys at OSH said they have never seen any signs of ice. The two carbs are very similar. I'm wondering if the Ellison is prone to ice, or if they are just playing CYA in case a lawyer is watching.

The actually savings them with PRA's 1st baby step program =. 100K gyro insured for LOW time pilots @50K x 12% = $6K (PRA cover the over 50K with a group saving account) 100K gyro insured for HIGH time pilots @50 x 8% = $4K. Liability now they wanted another $3K. PRA program saves another 30% of that or $900 a year.

Feb 27, 2021 · Feb 27, 2021. #2. Any fixed wing will stall when the critical angle of attack is exceeded, regardless of planform or aspect ratio. Rotary wings don't have low forward speed stall problems because the rotating blades are not exceeding the critical angle (except for a small region near the hub). Feb 27, 2021 · Feb 27, 2021. #2.

Certainly a topic I am interested in. Bush charter and desert operations in fixed wing which I have experienced, were very removed from gyro ops in small single or factory two seaters over the more remote areas, which some of us have access to.

Nov 23, 2006 · The HACman system is said to eliminate the need to make carb jet adjustments to the Bing 54's in-route or for seasonal weather changes too. If you can keep your EGT at the high limit of the operating range while in-flight, then you save fuel and extend your flying range as well. Turn one knob to control dual carbs to change the mixture.

Mar 5, 2023. #1. This report is a very sobering reminder of every detail we need to pay attention to in aircraft. Tony Mattioli had a fatal accident in an AR-1 gyroplane (N11TG) here in Florida in 2021. Tony was a super guy and very good and capable airplane IFR and gyroplane Sport Pilot.

Liability insurance on an $8,000 gyro makes a lot of sense. $8,000 for Hull insurance makes no sense. Some states actually require liability insurance for all aircraft. Most people ignore those laws.A French owned Leon Gyro Tandem had a fatal accident shortly after take off in April 2018 at Flavacourt airfield ( north of Paris ) - a BMW engined version. The BEA initial summary reads "During take-off, the pilot lost control of the gyroplane which struck the ground at approximately 300 m from the runway threshold."A typical gyroplane is not a short takeoff aircraft and a bush plane is. A bush plane will stall and spin, a gyroplane won’t. A typical bush plane with low wing loading will bounce the pilot around in turbulence and the ride will be smoother in a gyroplane under the same conditions. Most bush planes will carry more stuff than most gyroplanes.Brian. The fuel pumps (both) have to be switched of course.
