Hello Thomas. Yes sir, the Kool Scoop fits and works extremely well. Live in Louisiana, so this scoop is a must.

Well Dan, you just cost me a bunch of money. I’d seen your original post back in 2016 and thought to myself that if Cee Bailey ever started production on the windows again that I would jump on them. Mine are in good, but not perfect…[Read more]

With this post I know the proper radio, now I just need to buy the Captain’s OTW for Miss Karen…

Good morning Joe and Thomas. Hugh Mattern was kind enough too pull his 200 into the hangar for the maintenance session at the 2017 fly in. This is always one of the highlights of the fly in. So much to learn from these guys. Some are A&Ps, some have rebuilt numerous planes, some have owned their girls for 30 plus years. None of them are just…[Read more]

After talking with Jim I bought one of these radios and installed it in my Ryan PT-22. The radio works great and the built in intercom is the best I have used in an open cockpit airplane.

My 200C which I also race has the IO-520A with Gami’s and setup to cruise at 2350 RPM and what ever MP I can get which is obviously dependent on Altitude and other. Also run ROP. On average though, I cruise at 9 – 10,000 ft and avg. 21″MP @ 2350 @ 14 GPH which typically gives me around 186KTS True Airspeed. CHT’s are generally around 350 and EGT…[Read more]

All: Regarding OTW landings, grass, hard surface runways and crosswinds – FAA certification of Part 23 (OTW were certified under CAR 4, the previous certification standard before FAR Part 23) is 15 mph ‘demonstrated cross wind’. Factory test pilots are required to certify all Part 23 airplanes to 15 mph crosswinds, therefore, it then depends upon…[Read more]
