Paul.
I am flying behind Eisemanns and I can not find anything wrong with them. Mine lasted 1000 hours and over 25 years when one condenser started failing. But it is a sturdy, simple construction. Despite the discussion about parts availability and being NOS, I find them trustworthy. Slicks cost more and are good too, but need a check per AD after 500 hours and also have an AD on the impulse coupling I think. Inside they are similar to the Eisemanns. These mags are all of the same construction. One thing in favor of the slicks is that mechanics know them - this is in case you get stranded somewhere. But this is a rare thing anyway.

My A&P suggests that if they are determined to need replacing that I use slick mags as although the Eissmans can be bought rebuilt from skyport at a lesser price, theircparts are 60 yrs old even if new. whereas the slicks are more modern, albiet twice as expensive. Your thoughts? Thanks Paul Drake, 415c, c-75 _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection. https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969
