Last weekend I flew to the mountains for a weekend of Mtn. Biking with a buddy. Yesterday I did an IFR departure through the marine layer on my way to formation practice. Then we topped off the day as I led 5 RVs on formation passes (with smoke) for the crowd at my home airports annual air-fair and car show.

BTW, everyone says my rotary makes way better smoke than my lycoming brethren.

Here is a picture from the Nellis AFB airshow a couple years ago. Mine is the blue plane on the right.

Because it is a very cold heat range plug. The higher the number in NGK the colder the plug. Racers use R6725-11.5.
