Just something to think about when positioning those EWPs!

Just great, something ELSE to think about :-)  
 
Thanks to you and Ed for the temp during descent comments.  I won't worry about that for now.
 
I looked back through the old archives the other day, and found a few messages about Jim Mosur's water pump belt failure.  The engine got him to the airport, but he ended up needing a rebuild.  Unfortunately, I couldn't find the full account of the story, so I don't know how long he had to run without water circulation.  The RX-7 forums are also filled with "overheat=rebuild" stories.  I'm sure glad it all worked out like it did, but I wouldn't bet on that being the norm.  
 
Rusty (I didn't "ask" about the EM-2, but thanks for the progress report)
