CS-STAN V.4. – installation of Alcor 46156 EGT/CHT instrumentation and probes

Ava

I have admitted before that I am not very good at looking up the CS-STAN. I will admit that again, sorry.

I want to install a legacy Alcor EGT/CHT instrument (part no 46156) and related probes.

I have looked through (searched) the CS-STAN version 4, and it would seem to me that the correct reference would be CS-SC208a INSTALLATION OF A MULTIFUNCTION DISPLAY FOR POWERPLANT INSTRUMENTS.

1. “Configuration 1: The installation or exchange of an optional a multifunction display for powerplant instruments is not required by the aircraft certification basis.”
2. “All the parts used in Configuration 1 are eligible for installation without an EASA Form 1.”

Would this be the correct details used for installation in a part-CAO aircraft?

Thanks Gentlemen.

Strange METAR or TAF / METAR or TAF interpretation

Take a flight tomorrow (27th) after 0800Z.

This is interesting in two ways.

Firstly they have

BECMG 2607/2610 9999 NSW

and that extends all the way to the end of the TAF. Yet they have

TEMPO 2709/2712 7000 RA

but how can NSW be the case with RA, practically? Could there be RA with a cloudbase which was previously high enough to warrant NSW?

From here

If no significant weather is expected to occur during a specific time period in the forecast, the weather group is omitted for that time period. If, after a time period in which significant weather has been forecast, a change to a forecast of no significant weather occurs, the contraction NSW (No Significant Weather) will apear as the weatehr group in the new time period. However, NSW is only included in the BECMG or TEMPO groups.

I can't find a definition for NSW itself. It certainly isn't CAVOK but what are the requirements?

The other subtlety worth a mention is that the RA is forecast till 1200 but since the TAF itself is valid till 1200 also, the rain is in effect forecast to potentially exist past the end of the TAF.

Somebody has failed their Class 2 due to ECG showing ‘right bundle branch block’ and ‘left articular fasciular block’.

What is the route to getting a Class 2?

It won’t be cheap, but that is not the Q

EDTZ Konstanz runway condition

20190630 nowegen helgoland %2811%29 Eurogaprofile Tb sunset

Would anyone have any recent experience of the runway condition of Konstanz, in particular with the operation of a retractable in mind? Historic reports seem to show a tendency to be quite uneven, though I’ve read they might have had a Perfo system added.

Back in the 1990s there was a UK character called “Denis Penis” who routinely made fools of “celebs”.

Here’s one example:

@gallois, you wrote that in Sofia, one can get the list of AIP SUPs along a route.

I can’t get it, I only have the whole list that I must go through every time.
How do you do that ?

Which is why I really like the alternate digital A/Ps, derived from the experimental ones, where you can adjust the parameters yourself – like Trio und former TruTrak … It was a PITA when we had o…

Thanks for the tip! I found it on a streaming service with Swedish subtitles.

Why can’t the ATO fit Lycoming branded Surefly magnetos then? They don’t appear to be that much more expensive.
