Smallest and Largest on the Ramp.....

[GraemeSmith]

.....today at KOQU - Quonset, RI. Probably smallest and largest in the state too!

What's that doing on my ramp?

1153's better side

There was a gap in the TFR's today that allowed me to squeeze in this visit.

Graeme, what is the function of the small air intake on the top left of your cowl?

Sorry Lou - just saw this.

There is a formed metal tube under it and it close fits to and blasts outside air down over the heat sink fins on the voltage regulator.

i just failed the third voltage reg. The first, the Sonex reg., lasted 285 hours. The second, a less expensive tractor reg. ( don''t remember the number) lasted 45 hours. I have a Sonex reg. on order and I think it's time to add some cooling to the coil/reg. area of the fire wall.
