First I heard of the accident, and was sitting next to Larry at dinner Friday night! Never thought to ask "any exciting happen this week". Bud, Larry, and Phyllis had to leave early, but it was a pleasure to meet them. Only wish my wife had been there. Stopped by Pat's CONTACT booth and commented I was looking forward to Al's presentation. Pat looked a little pale when I said that was my reason for coming out to Copperstate. I had business meetings in Phoenix, and the Bearhawk clan was at Copperstate, but was looking forward to meeting Al. Spotted a neat marker/strobe wingtip lights at one booth. No details other than "only takes 250mA". 250mA @ 12V is 3W, yet holding the acrylic light in my hand it felt much warmer. The comment "adjust voltage to make it brighter" and the fact it was "toss into trash can" if anything failed left me wondering about reliability. Folks explained "all details on the web". Well, no details on the web other than pricing. www.aveousa.com My thought is 'wait five years.... " before buying to see if they are still around and have a reliable track record. Rotary Aircraft Engine folks were there. Fellows at the booth were very nice, but not too technical as he kept telling me the engine is 'air cooled'. Incoming mixture is used to cool the engine, in addition to water. It's been done before, but always with reduced power levels, so it was interesting. 1300cc displacement, but the fellow said they made all their own parts.
