There is still time to reserve your spot at the SETP West Coast Symposia (link).
Justin Gillen and I will be speaking about the test work we did fir Aerochia on N62MH, N357AW and N23LF during the build up to Reno 2014.
Justin and I are extremely flattered to have been chosen to speak to this prestigious group and look forward to the opportunity to learn more about testing badass aircraft.
Go work on your airplane!

Title: Wastegate Development For A Sport Class Pylon Race Aircraft.
Abstract: During 2014 Aero Chia performance aircraft changed the pneumatic wastegate provided with their Super Lancair Legacy line of race aircraft. The TSIO-550-C is rated to 300 horsepower, we believe the engine was making over 650 horsepower when the propeller failed in a heat race at Reno 2014. The build up to that power setting took place over three airframes, and failed 4 turbos. These are some of the lessons learned from that testing.
