I had to face off about 0.025" to get my bolts flush.

I didn’t take any pictures this morning, but this is what rolls, loops, Immelmanns, split-esses and spiral dives look like on flightaware.

I must not have been paying attention!
The aerobatics do seem to confuse the system. Often I’ll generate 1 or 2 primary targets close to me at my altitude. Freaked me out a few times trying to find the airplane that was nearly on top of me.
Yeah, I’m sure it was just an errant reading.

Old rotor at 477.7 hours:
New titanium rotor:
A worn tire weighs more than a half lb less than a new one. Follow me for more weight reduction tips.

Bryan,
How many landings on the old tires?

Wes,
I’m not sure. I could total them up in the name of science.

I did 146, Adam did 140 for a total of 286. Total time 136.9 hours.
Titanium rotors seem fine so far. Pattern work during flight school shift change, 3 landings.
Probably 90% or more of our landings are on pavement.

Numbers going on for the Airventure Cup Race. Waiex 191 is becoming Race 191.
Weather has been poor. Adam and I did get out this morning and flew around the pattern 6 times, 3 each. Titanium rotors seem to work the same as the heavy ones so far.
