A/C Problems Hi JoeMini Arrived at the hangar nice and early only to find a big puddle of oil beneath my SF260. On investigation it appears that the engine is in need of a major overhaul. Rang Henrietta, who was to be my intructor for the trip, and she studied the performance figures for the ACA Scout (detailed below). She reckons that as the longest leg is only 169 miles, we can do the whole Carribean 100 in the Scout --- provided we don't have too many strong headwinds. So here the deal I am formally requesting permission to change my aircraft type to the ACA Scout as used on the Hawaiien Tour. Performance Cruise speed / endurance w 45 min reserve @ 75% power 113 kts TAS / 2.7 Hrs Fuel consumption @ altitude 10.3 gph at 5000ft Cruise speed / endurance w 45 min reserve @ 55% power 97Kt TAS / 3.8 Hr Fuel consumption @ altitude 7.7 gph at 5000ft Sorry about the last minute change and hope it meets with your approval Biggles
