Canceled – EAA Chapter 104 / PCPA Annual Soup Off (was March 21st)
Uploaded a work by Siouxsie Wiles and Toby Morris from https://thespinoff.co.nz/society/09-03-2020/the-three-phases-of-covid-19-and-how-we-can-make-it-manageable/ with UploadWizard
Pre-ignition and detonation are responsible for a significant number of engine failures in General Aviation aircraft each year. Pre-ignition occurs when the air-fuel charge ignites while the piston is still compressing the mixture. Detonation is a violent explosion process after the compression stroke near or just after top dead center. This seminar will acquaint pilots with the hazards of pre-ignition and detonation events.
Bring a pot of soup to join the contest or just come to enjoy the soup. Cast your ballot for the best tasting soup. The winner will get to sign the trophy – EVERYONE WELCOME.
