Title:
EAA Chapter 563 VMC Club
Topic:
Keeping it Cool in Hot Springs
Speaker(s):
Killian Madeley
Brief Description:
This Sunday, September 27th, at 6:30 p.m., please join us in the EAA 563 hangar for our VMC Club's monthly scenario review! We will review a proposed flight in which a pilot attempts to manage high cylinder heat temperatures (CHTs) during the summer in Hot Springs, South Dakota. With a density altitude of nearly 6,000 feet, is it better to lean for best power or keep the engine running cooler? Key discussion points include light piston performance, engine health and monitoring, and the impact of density altitude. We will also review our EAA Question of the Month. Attendees are eligible for Knowledge Topic 2 WINGS credit.
