Lycoming Flyer
Something useful for those who sit behind a Lyc!
Whilst in the States last year - at an airshow, I picked up an A4 manual FOC from the Lycoming stand called:
Lycoming Flyer Key Reprints
it purports to be: A compilation from key maintenance and performance articles taken from the former Lycoming "Flyer" Newsletter.
IMHO A veritable Ladybird book of 112 pages of things that you ought to know about your engine.
It dispels the over-square myth for opposed engines, it carefully explains carb icing, shock-cooling and leaning. A real treasure trove and a change from the current Pprune bitching and whining.
No ISBN but a cover price of $4.99
It is endorsed by Ian Walsh the VP&GM of Lycoming engines, so I would guess an e-mail to him (address on the TexLyc site) might encourage him to donate a few more copies!
Stik a Lyc lover!
