Make sure to use some in-line fuel filters, and for God's sake man, ditch the points and install a Dyna-S!!!



Oh, and do you carry a handgun when flying?

........and what are you using to lube the chain?

I could see a Scott-Oiler mounted to a jet, spewing oil all over the countryside as it flies over! ;D ;D

Try 4.5 million. Course it depends on the engine times/cycles and the avionics package.

Straight falcon 20's are anywhere from 700,000 to 900,000 as they use the GE CF-700 engine.

Best Oil? Mobile Jet II  or 2380  ;D

Tire selection is limited as they have to be FAA certified Goodyear works for me.  ;D

No need for a plug chop....Once ya light the fires it stays burning  ;D

Best fuel? Jet-A...modified Kerosene  ;D

That should read "fill 'er up as much as they are supposed to".  With the Gimli they miscalculated and put in too little (just as bad), otherwise that plane has range to spare on a full tank.  Either way, gliding in with that kind of beast has got to suck.
