Hi Steve,
Now, what are you doing pulling 4.5 or even 3 g's???? You doing loops? Or
just 90 deg banked turns?
We had Goodyear's on our Cessna and always got more than 500 hours/500
landings on them. The high dollar Michelins were no good. I just concluded
that the higher landing speeds and more use of brakes were wearing out my
Condors. Now I understand why after reading the AC article.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!
Ronnie

| By the way Ronnie...
|
| The Condor tires are lighter then the GoodYear tires...When I pull more
then
| four and a half g's with condor tires, the gear light comes on indicating
| that the transient gear micro switch has been actuated...With Goodyear
| tires, it comes on at three g's...The extra weight pulls the gear just
| slightly out of the wheel well.
|

|
| Best... Steve
