O2 sensor and then the ECM can only run the pre-mapped mode.  Hope I am
incorrect on this.

Hey Bob,

 

I'm sure he is a nice guy and he is doing good work.  I am leery of anyone
that claims their engine will use half the fuel.  I have yet to see an auto
conversion that has a better BSFC than an aircraft engine.  Especially when
an electronic ignition is added and an EIS is used to run LOP.

 

I know you have to toot your own horn for marketing, but.  it would be nice
to see a new engine developer under promise and over deliver (or just
deliver).

 

I do wish him the best of luck.

 

Andy

Al Aden and his Quiet Aviation company are located at the Orlando Apopka
airport, just a few hangars away from us.  Al's a good guy, knows what he's
doing, and I believe he will have his STC approved for this engine on C172's
by next summer.
