Really. the top of this page says GOOGLE I think. Lets get BOb's opinion.. Dude, you need to get some remedial usenet lessons. Google is just an outfit which provides a free means (one of many) of accessing these groups, and they keep an archive of old posts, but the newsgroups ain't run by Google. ---------------------------------------------------- Del Rawlins- Remove _kills_spammers_ to reply via email.

Thanks, I learned something today. Life is good in Paradise ...

That's because you are using the free Google Usenet interface to read the rec.aviation.homebuilt newsgroup. I use Google too, most of the time. But Google sure as heck isn't the only way to read Usenet newsgroups. Also, Google has no control over the moderation or content of Usenet newsgroups. That would be like trying to hold your TV manufacturer responsible for the fact that your set is capable of displaying pornographic material. I suggest the following document for a brief introduction to Usenet, and some handy pointers as to what it is and what it is not: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/what-is/part1/ My favorite part of that FAQ is: 3. Usenet is not fair. After all, who shall decide what's fair? For that matter, if someone is behaving unfairly, who's going to stop him? Neither you nor I, that's certain. If you don't like what Bob Urban writes, your best bets are to either ignore it or to refute it with logic and reason. But remember that the plural of anecdote is not data. Thanks, and best regards to all Bob K. http://www.hpaircraft.com |

Hey, Thanks BOb for the plug. You forgot to tell them all about my
private Airport, 2WY3. I am sure BOb will look that one up too and post it for all you readers. Now it's time for an adult beverage, a dip in the hot tub and Dinner. Life is GOOD in Paradise. Unless I'm confused as badly as Ben.... Ben is the guy that some time ago told us how he had developed an auto conversion that would develop more horsepower at less RPM than any other auto engine on earth. One secret ingredient was a new fangled cam, IIRC. When I asked him to start walking his talk... all that has been forthcoming is more heat and vitriol concerning me - NOTHING on his fabulous world class engine. To date, his agenda remains the same..... shoot the messenger. Discredit the messenger. Deflect attention from his engine project's failures and... successes? Although Ben remains CLUELESS about where he is at... even when informed, he does keep harping on how this group is about 'EXPERIMENTING'. I wonder when Ben is going to get off my case and on to posting something topical and of substance. When will Ben bare his soul and come clean on how what I and others have been saying for some time? Never, is my guess. However, since Hass appears to be bashful, one might write.... Ben Haas N801BH. FAA public record..... Registered Owner Name HAAS POWER AIR INC Street 700 PONDEROSA DR City JACKSON State WYOMING Zip Code 83001-9379 N801BH is Assigned Assigned/Registered Aircraft Aircraft Description Serial Number 8-4419 Type Registration Corporation Manufacturer Name HAAS POWER AIR INC Certificate Issue Date 05/19/2003 Model HAAS 801 Status Valid Type Aircraft Fixed Wing Single-Engine Type Engine Reciprocating |

There have been several CERTIFIED ones that did the same thing. They said it was a quality control issue that slipped by themselves and the Feds. If I remember correctly Lycoming had a rash of CERTIFIED cranks break. So they recalled a bunch and using 50 YEARS of experience produced an even deadlier version to fix the first ones. I am really surprised they didn't hire BOb to run their spin / PR dept. Hey BOb, did ya sent the next of kin any flowers??? Nothing like a CERTIFIED death !!!!!! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Ben, You need flowers... Stuck up your assinine arse. You continue to be a CERTIFIABLE fool. Any reasonable person knows... Flying behind certified engines do have calculated risks. They also know that **** happens under the best of conditions and controls even where the most qualified folks and systems are in play. All that can be said is risks are made as low as possible in this manner.... not by psychotically hammering on some car engine from the junk yard and substituting the unknown for the highly known - all the while, stupidly foaming at the mouth here in RAH. Wow. 50 years of flight. You must have a ton of money saved up after all those IFR charters mortal men would have been killed doing. Ya know,the high risk missions get the high risk dollars. Why don't ya share with all of us the location of your few hundred acres where your private airport is located. Surely a man of your means has one of those??. Oh yeah, I forgot. You didn't even build the RV you are flying, you just bought one to be cool and honor us with your imput. I live to see ya rant and rave about others when you are the bottom feeder in this group.... Ben Haas. 50 years at laughing at OLD fools..... My record of 50 years and nearly 9000 hours speaks well of certified engines. I've learn in that time to respect and trust the engines that I have flown behind over vast open waters, western deserts, the Rocky Mountains, crop dusting and IFR charters that would have you ****ting in your britches. What have you got to offer to date in your OWN behalf? N-O-T-H-I-N-G... but derogatory crap and very cheap talk. Each and every home brewed conversion carries UNKNOWN risks... and only a flying fool would think he has better odds gambling on **** that the average shade tree dood has cobbled together. I'm not against you or your conversion endeavors, but I am against any horse**** posted here laying claim that auto conversions in general remotely measure up to the finest and most reliable piston aircraft engines ever produced by man. Anyone with an IQ over two digits should realize this... but guys like you have to learn it the hard way. So be it. Barnyard BOb -- over 50 years of flight |

Snip other stuff
I talked with the man behind the V8 SeaBee last saterday. Over 1000 trouble free hours on the LT1 in his own plane. Several hundred on the doc's LT6. The LT1 has had the drive apart several times checking for wear - none found. Engine has not changed compression, oil pressure, oil temp, or oil consumption since first 20 hour of break-in. And that "trouble free" IS trouble free. No changes required. The LT6 has needed some changes in code for theO2 sensors from what I remember. (2 sensor vs 4 sensor vs no sensor) The problem with the doc's engine was as soon as he went over 2/3 throttle the computer went to full rich. The problem was solved by changing to an overseas computer or program for an engine that didn't have a catalytic converter. Since the change the engine has been trouble free. before the change the only problem was high fuel consumption and less power. If I remember all from my visit with the doc this spring. There's another Sea-Bee getting converted in centralia this winter. |
