If you had any idea of what crap you were talking about, you would have realised that the 777 has GE90 engines on them. The only time you will find yourself between two of them is when you are wearing your skirt and handing out inflight refreshments. Faker alert!

Well done on gliding the twin otter 30NM on flight sim. If you did this in real life you would get shock cooling within 2 minutes and your boss would be giving you the bill for all 12 cracked cylinders.

Oh oh ah ah what will the chipmunk come up with next???
Comfy chair.....................check
Cold beverage.................check
Munchies.........................check

This is gonna' get interesting.

PA38, you don't know what your saying.

I think it's time Sir Tomahawk (is it the grand return of Compylot?) be ignored for the troll he is. I know he thinks he’s pretty damn funny, but this tread is full of extremely valuable information.

People die because they don’t know what is going on inside their engine, because they’re afraid to lean, because they follow OWTs. I wouldn’t have spent the many many hours I have researching this material if it wasn’t for the wise words of Chuckles, Jaba, etc that I saw a few years ago. Maybe it’ll save my life one day? It’s certainly made me a better pilot and instructor.

So if you’re a troll, kindly go away, and if you’re genuine (50% increase in stall speed with a 30kt tailwind? God help us all if you are genuine) stop talking and listen.

I think we just discovered this twerp is a Troll.

No we discovered that earlier, it is just now confirmed.

Knowing what I know I think PA38wanker is about to find it a little harder to view PPRUNE.

Wow PA38 Fkwit...I stand in awe of your erudite ignorance. It is after all only exceeded by your bullet proof arrogance which is, without doubt, shielded by wings of steel.

Hang on while I duck into this phone box

I do believe his correct user name is Chimbu Chuckles. Please, "captain" show a little respect.

If you, you purile little man of abject misery, had even a modicum of intelligence, you would soon discover the answer to that question and quite possibly more than you will ever even know lies in a very quick and very simple SEARCH of this, and indeed other forum.

Perhaps you may have bitten of slightly more than you can chew here fella and I watch with the utmost interest, your ultimate demise here on pPrune.

Oh, and by the way,
you would have realised that the 777 has GE90 engines on them
****, last time I looked......this "777"



had "Briggs & Strattons" on it. Why was I not told that this happened!!!! Why, why, why..........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HAVE been told, though, and what with all of the hoo haa going on with Flynny and his band of flying fkucwits, that the new -8 is gonna have some nice Lycoming pistons on her. Can't wait to get me first look at that fancy MP gauge climbin' outta Anchorage. Recon' she'd be up to around 367.2 inches just passn' Big Lake.

Jesus wept!

Well looking at PA38 Captain's IP address it seems he is posting from Hawkes Bay, Napier, UNZED.

The working assumption is a Kindy in Lucy Rd where, having failed advanced play dough, the teacher has banished him from the craft room and he has stumbled upon a computer with internet.

You guys have fun with him for a little while longer.

I want some of that manifold pressure that increases with altitude, then I could stop the wear on my Supercharger, WOW good stuff.

Maybe someone could teach me altimetry again so I can understand how this phenomena works ???????

Come on PA38guru

You can't tell me you have not rebuilt dozens of engines especially that mighty awesome O-235, so tell me all about this question I asked you about.

http://www.pprune.org/dg-p-general-a...ml#post6744060

Or do you need to be asked back into the play dough class to get some help from your friends?

A LOT to be said in favour of electronic fuel injection and things like FADEC.

However, once you do that, the engine boys will lose their basic fault finding skills very quickly

It would interesting to see the stats on how many unwarranted shutdowns have been caused by FADEC, compared to actual mechanical failure.
