CO Monitor (a quality one with a visual and or audible warning) is a MUST have. Cut, paste and search using the text below for further information ... Collision with water involving a de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver aircraft, VH‑NOO, at Jerusalem Bay, Hawkesbury River, NSW on 31 December 2017

This was a fun video. Always love to see Chris.

Glen, How many hours have you put on MVU since you bought it? It's good to see Chris again, he seems like a mechanic you can really trust to do thing right.

Oh man that explanation of how the heat works reminded me of driving a early 1970's Volkswagen beetle in high school. Cruising one winter night with a friend and noticed our eyes were burning and we were getting sleepy. Then I ran my finger against the inside of the windshield and notice I had soot on my finger. After that I always had the windows cracked. Wonder how many brain cells I lost that night. Then again that's not the only thing I did in high school that killed a lot of brain cells. ;-) Safe travels to Japan, looking forward to your videos from there.

Good idear Glenn , if yall fart the alarm goes of in mid flight 😜😎🤣🤣

Hope you have a lot of fun in Tokyo!!

Awesome!

Always such great content and sharing of knowledge. Thank you.

Busy day, video on both channels! You already know this, but Chris is awesome. Did he come recommended, or did you get lucky? I purchased a CO monitor from Forensics Detector model FD CAR001 for my pickup. It's for aircraft as well. CO detectors over time continously take in CO, other gases and particulates unless it prrges itself. This effects its lifespan/effectiveness. 10 years is a great lifespan. You have done so much to this aircraft in such a short time frame...it's amazing. Another great video. Thanks

Chris is a longtime friend of one of our cousins - I know how lucky I got!

It will be interesting to see howvthe CO2 monitor works. I worked in the marine industry for many years and if a copper based antisieze is used when reassembled it will show up in the oil samples. If the copper level staysvthe same then there maybe nothing serious. Still keep doing oil samples to be sure. Have a great time in Japan and have videos to post on the Glen And Friends channel.

Curious to hear how your Copper "issue" plays out; one of my flying clubs is dealing with similar issues (elevated copper and blow-by quickly turning the oil dark) on our towplane. Hope the Japan trip is amazing, sorry to be missing it!

Now I'm curious on what oil level Chris feels is best for the O300!!!!!

I just run a Sentry that gives me CO detection as well as ADS-B in.

that will fit in the old vacuum gauge hole right ?

This pane doesn’t have any steam gauge holes, so we had to drill a new one.

Thanks for the video. No audible alert on the CO2 monitor?

doesn't make much sense between the engine noise and having the headset on

Not the way I have it wired in - if you are experimental and wire it into a Dynon or Advanced panel there would be an audible 'warning'. I haven't setup the iPhone app yet, it may give an audible warning through bluetooth? (not yet sure.) In any event, the flashing light is plenty visible during your instrument scan.

How long do you have to land when the CO monitor goes off? Can a window be opened to buy you time?

@GlensHangar

9 ай бұрын

That's a heated point of debate - yes opening the vents and window will allow more outside airflow and reduce the amount of CO in the cabin, but when it shows a warning you should be looking for an alternate. CO / lack of oxygen creeps up on you and affects your judgement.

G,day Glen from Sydney Australia. I wonder where the copper is in the engine and detected in the oil analysis? 🌏🇭🇲💫

There are a bunch of bushings that contain copper - if something is slightly off kilter they could wear unevenly and throw enough into the oil.

Just wondering if you will have to register with the Canadian Government by November in order to keep your channel active?

​@@GlensHangarThat's good to know. The stories about the issue seemed rather hyperbolic.

I'm not sure if there is a CO Monitor that has a listed life beyond 10 years. A couple of Alarm System Monitored units send an "end of life" style message at 10 years that cannot be cleared and must be replaced.

@GlensHangar

It's such a minor cost to replace them at 10 years; the peace of mind and safety is worth it.

Put alot of flying hours on her lately.

GLEN!!! No eye pro when drilling out rivets?! I'm shocked! LOL (But not really. It could be serious.)

Why is there a tower crane at the airport?

They're putting up an office tower right beside the airport - Pretty sure that in the next 10 years this airport will be pushed out because of noise complaints and development pressures.

Hey Glen. In your shoes I'd: 1.) Put in a reservation for a DeltaHawk TDI motor. 2.) Get your Instrument Rating. 3.) Get a good Flight Sim @ home and get Julie trained up on basic piloting skills. Cheers.

Ha! 1) $100,000+++ for an engine that probably won't ever be stc'd for the 172B, too pricey for my budget even if it gets an stc. 2) Until C-FMVU is an IFR rated aircraft, getting my IFR rating is futile. 3) What makes you think Julie hasn't acquired basic piloting skills already?

@@GlensHangarHmmm. The DeltaHawk rRep @ Osh ‘23 said 0n AvWeb TV that the motor is fully FAA certified now and estimated to cost $45K, not cheap, but reasonable. That’s why I mentioned it. 2.) Why not chat with Garmin about getting a loaner 500 or 1000 to get you through your IFR? Or get your IFR rating in another 172 and have it in case you get into inadvertent soup…?. 3.). Because she hasn’t taken the controls and landed in any of your CC vids thus far. I’m glad to hear she has the skills. I always think of Monty Python & ‘the salmon mousse’, or the original ‘Airplane’ comedies, when I fly as a passenger. Cheers.

I spoke with DeltaHawk at Osh '23 and they quoted $100,000 and also said that the STC for a 172B was not in the works - too few airframes still flying to make it worthwhile. FAA certified is different than allowed to be used in certain airframes. Lots of FAA certified engines, but only 2 or 3 are allowed in a 172B.

AAAAAHHHH. Drill in metal without even your glasses on Glen?!? Please don't do that.
