That's great Tucker. So far the fuselage has been the most enjoyable forme. Started on the gear over the holiday and it's been more challenging. Alink to some of today's activity. http://textors.com/IMG_7529_1600x1067.jpgTake care Buddy!JackDSM-----Original Message-----

Hey Dick better read up on carb ice its not just cold wx that causes it???Temperature drops of 20 =B0C (36=B0F) or more are often encountered within the carburetor, so ice can build up even when the outside air temperature is well above freezing. Perhaps paradoxically, cold winter weather is less prone to icing, since cold air contains much less moisture. A warm day with high humidity is considered the most likely scenario for carburetor icing. Since there is less air acceleration through the carburetor at full-throttle operation, icing is usually not a problem then.Carburetor heat uses hot air drawn from the heat exchanger or heat stove (a metal plate around the exhaust manifold) to raise the temperature in the venturi section high enough to prevent or remove any ice buildup. Because hot air is less dense than cold air, engine power will drop when carburetor heat is used.________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Got My Fuselage Started
