REFLECTOR: What are you working on?

[Richard J. Gentil]

I have recently flown off my restriction on my IO-390-X MT SERG but have hit a wall at 170kts which I cannot seem to break through. I recently went to the factory and spent a fantastic morning with John and Scott was they went through the bird and Scott even took it up for a flight. He commented that it climbs really well, just that it is slower then an FG. 

I turned up the ailerons two full turns so they are about an 1/8 of an inch up vs being an 1/8 down when they stick was in the middle, it helped set my elevators so they too now sis a couple of degrees up from neutral but still cannot get past 170kts in level flight. 

I did have John come visit me last week and we completed his MEI so he is ready for all of you to do your checkouts on the V-Twin! So get on the phone and order your kits!!
