SETP San Diego
 |
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.

SETP SW
Hey Guys
Jenn and I would like to thank James Sargeant and Norm Driscoll for inviting us out to Fort Worth to the SETP SW annual event (link), and Eric Hansen for bringing it all together.
We gave a quick pitch about Scaled Composites, the Mojave Airport, Wasabi Air Racing, and the type of folk that hang out here in the Antelope Valley.
This was our first time presenting at an SETP or SFTE event and it is a truly humbling group of people to stand in front of, a great experience.
It was a lovely venue, with some fantastic papers, the F-35 production tour was fantastic, and we are still shocked by the accomplished people we got to meet.
Thanks again!
