Herb, did you advance the prop lever to the high RPM stop from the feather position on the altitude re-start?
I've caged both of mine at altitude, with sucessful re-starts, but I have the stock McCauleys and unfeathering accumulators. If you can get the prop out of feather, it should windmill enough that the starter is not necessary for a re-start. Dave |

I'll bet you were 500 pounds under gross. Not a lot more than that.

Winds, we had a real stiff wind out of the north. Might be some of the reason it looks that way.

Hi fellas! slight re-vector on the thread: searched the whole internet, this and the UK forum, but didn't find an answer: anyone know the engine-out performance degradation with the underbelly cargo pod installed? I'm looking at buying skymaster (there goes the kids' college education $$, which they don't need because the only people making money these days are plumbers and mechanics!). Anyway, I'm fairly comfortable with the SE performance numbers, but can't find the cargo pod penalty. Since I'll be flying out of high pressure alt locations in the mountain west, I'd like to know how bad the SE performance is with the pod installed. Thanks in advance for your knowledge.
Fly Safe! |

Here are the recommendations from my POH 1968 C model. Hope that helps.
