It is primarily a 210 system with boots recommended by Hartzel. The mount for the brushes had to be modified. All the data and an STC was developed by Helena Aircraft (Jerry Gresens) in Helena, Montana 406-443-8360. Re my question on ice buildup, I have had about 3/8 of an inch of mixed. Anvils were starting to develop but I noticed no detrimental flight characteristics. Another interesting thing is my IV flies with the elevator slightly below the hor. stab., about 1/4 inch. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/Users/Mkaye/maillist.html Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please send your photos and drawings to marvkaye@olsusa.com. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
