i was asked off list about the install to which i responded:

i purchased the tks system through joeb at lancair several years ago.  i =
was one of the first to purchase this system from lancair.  it took many =
months to receive the system and even longer to get the slinger ring. we =
had to devise our own tank system. not sure how many they sold.  my =
understanding is that lancair does not sell the tks system any longer but =
you may want to check with lancair.  obviously there is the mold available =
so tks may sell it direct.

brian alley of carbon fiber composites(304-395-4932) did the beautiful =
install and devised the tank system mainly in the wing root fairings.  we =
haven't flown yet so we are not done trouble shooting the system.   there =
seems to be an issue as to whether the pump is strong enough or whether it =
is not functioning properly but this should be sorted out in due time.  i =
personally felt and still feel that this is really the only tried and =
proven deicing system for our planes.  the thermawing system sounds =
great....time will tell.  i don't like not having anything for the =
windshield though. i've been hearing about it for almost a decade now.
