Carb icing

I have the wreck of a once beautiful Ryan PT22 in my garage.

Cause of the accident? Carb icing.

Unless you have a serious build up there won't be any significant coughs or bangs. What you are doing is bang on the money and almost certainly removing the initial ice deposits.

Dont do what you are doing and the build up is quite rapid thereafter.

I'd fly with you any time.
