  1. Do applications for this ASIC thing get vetted or is it purely a paper exercise?
  2. RR, I notice you use the words "Anti Puncture" as oppossed to puncture repair. Are you referring perhaps to products like Slime?. I have experience of Slime and other similar products in Mountain Bike tyres and they are effective on small punctures but they dont half leave a mess inside the tube or tubeless tyre. I would steer clear of these products. Are your Aircraft tyres tubed or tubeless? If tubeless and you were actually asking about repair and not prevention, then the motorcycle Plug type repair kits work really well in my experience.
  3. But you (and apparently everyone else here) is dismissing the fact that the mechanical pump was also still operating in this scenario but with an open outlet valve. I'm baffled that apparently nobody else (except the blokes who conducted the investigation) can see how that can reduce pressure.
  4. Skippy you have misunderstood, we are talking about the outlet valve in the mechanical pump failing open. I'm gonna leave this, busy today maybe Nev can explain P.S. its highly unlikely that is your problem anyway.
  5. Of course It wont make the boost pump fail, but If the outlet valve remains open during the suction stroke then it will suck fuel back through the outlet thus reducing pressure overall.
  6. No apology needed, I knew who you meant
  7. The amount of crap most airline travelers take with them for a week away is ridiculous.
  8. I thought you were moving to the land of the free
  9. Not really, it would happen in certain situations like a leak downstream But that wouldnt explain what happened when you switched on the Boost Pump, Id be suspicious that this is all false readings
  10. Is this all from readings on that Dynon you've been having problems with?
  11. Nice one mb, so just some more solo consolidation and a couple of cross country flights to do? (I'm unsure of your regime)
  12. Ooh, sorry to read that you have to consider selling Danny.
  13. Huh?, the wreck is clearly Black and White
