Re: Mysterious oil pressure fluxuations at 70-80% power
John, can you add the oil temperature to the plot and slightly expand the x (time scale)?

Re: Starlink in Diamond
You mentioned a power cable. Is your accessory plug 12V or 28V? What is current required and max voltage on the Starlink Mini? Doesn't seem to be in specs on web site. Thanks. Did you check the max voltage specs for this adapter compared to the voltage on your accessory outlet? My outlet exceeds ...

Re: Avflight - Caveat Emptor
Interesting. That location is CAA-preferred, so you received the reported discounted fuel price. The problem is in the other charges, and we've encountered similar surprises. The Jet-A discount programs (and FBOs generally) don't typically "understand" piston diesel airplanes. To them, Jet-A ...

Re: GFC700 in DA40NG
The DA40NG does not have an in-flight rudder/yaw trim or a yaw servo, so there is no yaw damper. The autopilot cannot compensate for the left-turning tendencies, so the AFM does not allow enabling the AP below 800' AGL (except when flying a coupled approach to 200' AGL). The GFC700-equipped Diamond ...

Re: Removing nose wheel fairings
Here's how I've been checking/inflating the OG (Cleveland) NLG tire of my 2019 DA40NG. I use a Ryobi inflator with a locking chuck similar to the one in this photo. (I check and correct the tire pressures every 28 days when I do my DB updates.) locking chuck.jpeg I move the airplane so the NLG valve ...

Re: Delivery?
There are several elements to "delivery," and the complete process takes several days. In my case, some were done at the London factory and the rest at my home airport, after the distributor and I flew the airplane from Canada to Texas. (Others arrange with their distributor to deliver to a DASC or ...

Re: Austro engine reliability and safety
I think two different accidents are being discussed in parallel. I'm not sure which one involves a takeoff into IMC.

Re: DA62 USB Ports
My DA-62 (delivered last year) has USB-C but the power output is certainly not PD. It barely charges my ipad when it's on and connected to connext/foreflight with the screen on. It does, however, prevent the ipad from discharging so it's still useful. One of the things I was reminded about on a ...
