"can be under" load and designed to be under load are two different things. The Ranger engine is designed for an intermittent power application which includes cruise stints at rated GCM. Even there there will be bends, dips, hills winds which vary power demand. Stationary Engines are designed for constant load application. They are started, run at a constant governed rpm and often have a constant power demand, such as a bore pump. Aircraft engines are designed for constant load application. The application is usually a shirt climb, a long cruise and a short descent. Manufacturers building for a constant power demand market need to design a more robust engine. Manufacturers building for an intermittent power demand market can take a lot more shortcuts and save a lot of cost without detriment to the buyers in that market. What confuses the issue are intermittent engines which punch way above their class. The small block Chev 350 is one of the legends, and the engines which have succeeded in recreational aircraft. In general, you wouldn't think of putting an intermittent power demand engine in an aircraft but some have been bulletproof enough to make the grade. In this particular crash, maybe the fuel tap is going to be found in the off position, maybe there had been an engine issue. Either way, the splay at the end of the runway wasn't clear for a landing was it. And there are plenty more like that around the country.

.......Turbo had to add a powdered glue to the product, which hurt the back pocket a bit. but The TurbineSandsOfTime company raced back into the Market Share lead. It started to rain...... Going back to Turbo's last ride........Mel McDaniel wrote a song about Turbo - "Stand On It". Turbo had superglued all the bikes on full throttle and Mel didn't mince words

Turbo lost his grip after the wax, and was seen doing things, or usually not doing them that he'd never condoned in the past. There were skidmarks all over the place and ...........

.......have plenty of scruples on hand. Turbo carries jerry cans of scruples because there aren't many in NSW. Turbo also came unstuck near The Rock one day on his Vincent. A Highway Patrol cop pulled him over, and Turbo, trying to be friendly said, "It's a Firking wet day isn't it, and the cop wrote him a ticket for obscene language, then announced that he'd been clocked at 1 million, 750 thousand Barleycorns over the speed limit. Turbo had been through this before and started making carking noises. Hundreds of crows descended on the highway and Turbo, after a short time disputed the Cop's alleged speed. There was a recount and Turbo came in 1.5 million Barleycorns under the limit. "I hope yer Firkin' wheels fall orf! yelled the cop. Talking about apothecarial, Turbo has been upgrading his CAD system to 3D. Going through the learning process, he was told the difference between an Inscribed polygon and a circumscribed polygon. Turbo was startled at the difference; he'd been circumscribed when he was a baby, and all his life he had suffered ongoing pains. He now realises he should have been Inscribed or ...........

Turbo had trained him in this, teaching him to tell jokes as he walked along. The Natives could never stop themselves laughing. He also had to be careful not to take the head off Blu Tak, a friendly native who did no harm to anyone. Blu Tak owned an Opel Facet [avref].

1. Yes difficult to do with aircraft unless you cut the fuel, pull up to stop the prop and land deadstick, so much greater risk than running slightly lean or rich. You're looking for the colour at full power so another way to do it is on a dyno without a prop and I accept for RA tuning there's too much cost in that. 2. This discussion is not applicable to GA engines where there is a mixture lever based on adjusting to a combination of power and altitude, and the arguments on that go on forever, with some people blowing up motors trying to prove a point. 3. As you say the engine must be shut down immediately from full power for the colour method.

That's GA, and there have been thousands of posts on it on GA SM

Agree, as someone who is a contender for taking out the most pistons in the country, I learnt the hard way. There's an acceptable risk-reward in Go Kart racing where the worst outcome is you'll roll to a stop and be busy machining a new for by next week, but the last thing you want to be doing is introducing piston seizures in the air. With petrol engines, reading the plug(s) to get that light brown colour is everything. With Methanol or Methanol-Acetone, it's designing for maximum power and cooling the combustion chamber with Methanol..

I hadn't heard that one. The new model releases by GM to the Dealer Network were conjured up and run by the Advertising Agency. Years later they set up the release function down at Lang Lang took the dealers down in coaches, and after a short preamble about how the model was going to beat Ford a helicopter could be heard in the distance. It dropped a Falcon in front of the viewing platform allegedly from 500 feet to cheers of the assembled dealers. The Agencies had to create spectacular events, but were not engineers. The all time winner was International Harvester's Agency release at the Chevron Hotel on the Gold Coast, at that time the go to hotel on the coast. It was the ACCO A with an all-new cab, so they had to do something spectacular. They paid to knock a hole in the ball room wall, built a platform outside (money was no object for new releases) papered over the wall and craned the truck up to the platform (all of that was engineered) The object was for the intro music to rise at the end of the presentation, a truck would be heard starting up outside, it would burst through the wall and the driver would hit the brakes on the ballroom floor inches from the front row. They practised over and over again until the driver had the count and burst through the paper and stop on a chalk line every time. On the night before the event an agency guy thought the seating area looked too spartan so they brought in a carpet for the floor. Everything went well until the driver braked. The carpet slid over the floor and the truck went into the first two rows of dealers, pushing them back into the row behind. Luckily no one was hurt.
