in planes I do not own. So I called Falcon Insurance and requested a liability quote for me and a passenger and I thought the price was reasonable at $378 per year. However, they are requiring me to have 5 hours of dual in it with a CFI before they will cover me. Um, I don't get it.

John, It was just above freezing here so cooling was not an issue. Once its back in the air I will slowly work from normalizing to boosting. Cooling will likely be the limiting factor for how much I can push it. Jeff Lange On Mar 24, 2013, at 11:32 PM, "John Martindale" wrote:
