FYI - I just spoke with Bob and he sounded pretty good. He is drugged up for the pain but was still joking around with me. He is of course worried about... -
Hi John. If that cooler is recommended for 540 installations on other planes it should do fine. I like their oil coolers, and buy them for overseas...Leave a comment:

Working with Bob, we are zero'ing in on a skylight design for the 4 place kits that will allow skylight panels on the two sides back to the rear spar...Leave a comment:
