[rebel-builders] Taxi test

Post by Wayne G. O'Shea » Sun Feb 19, 2012 11:42 am

Eddie.."as removed" are what most homebuilders have in their airplanes.
Picked up cheap as "take off's" from crashed, damaged or engine upgraded
airplanes.

My statement of a "never flown" engine is one that has been freshly
overhauled or built from a Superior kit etc and why I stated I'll trust them
from either of my overhaulers ONLY.

As for your NEVER flown...yes I know what you mean you Guinea Pig you! LOL

And no...there is no reason to bail out of a perfectly good glider unless
the engine parted ship before you!

;O)

Wayne, what is as removed engine?

Do you know what a "never flown" engine is?

How about an engine that has NEVER been flown. Or an engine that has
NEVER been run under extreem pressures.

Let me know if you know what I am talking about. If you don't then that
is ok too.

Let me know if you have ever ejected when an engine failed.

Bottom line, filter what your hear both here on this forum and at your
local airport.

Read the EAA information on testing the engine and aircraft.

I have tested both a new aircraft engine and a new airframe at the same
time. I had to divide tasks and lived.

I would however, not advise taking off with a never flown engine and a
never flown airframe on the same flight............................

No GL here yet Wayne. But it is easy for me to say that I can handle the
airplane on the ground that is until the day I GL it, then I won't be
saying
much.:(

Nice looking Elite Mike - As they say down under "she's a beauty mate" and
that's fair dinkam. I had no problem with the new brakes on a Rebel and I
dragged them for a bit to seat them as recommended by Bob P. In fact I had
to watch the run up or I could put it on her nose - sometimes they held to
good. Best regards Bob J - Looking forward to that stage again.

Wayne, I guess that the engine that I said was never flown actually had. It was aparently flown in the back of an aircraft during shipping so it was in fact a "flown but not really" engine...LOL
