I never thought about the carb ice problem. It could prove to be a problem here in the norhwestern U.S. The savings advantage to eliminate carb ice, could well be worth the added expense. -----Original Message----- From: Simon Creasy Subject: Re: Service Ceiling Dear Curtis, The MAIN advantage of fuel injection in Aircraft is the non-ICING problem. Here in New Zealand where the weather is changeable the fact that having a fuel injected engine removes one MAJOR worry. Given a choice, I would thoroughly recommend you go for the injected engine every time. Best wishes, Simon Creasy.
