"about the VW" Hello Steve Each of us that fly's a VW share in the frustration and other emotions that an engine failure bring to bear, especially those of us that have first hand experience. When I hear of engine problems I always like to ask for more details, because it helps me evaluate my engine. If you don't mind, please reply with the following information: 1. Which engine type 1/3 or 2/4 2. Was it a conversion from a known maker i.e. Revmaster, GPASC, or homebuilder 3. What size was the crank, 66mm, 78mm ?? 4. Did the crank have an aftermarket bearing in the front, such as GPASC's Force One bearing. 5. Do you know the location of the break in the crank? 6. What type of prop, Wood, Plastic?? 7. Do you feel that there were circumstances which contributed to the failure such as the 3 G pull up 8. Last question, were you aware, as soon as it happened.
Thanks in advance for your patience. Orma Southfield, MI N110LR Tweety, old enough to drink this year Flying and more flying, to the gathering or bust http://www.kr-2.aviation-mechanics.com/
