Actually I just found the club's rule. If the effectiveness of the muffler is in question then the executive committee will decide if the muffler is legal. The model is 7 years old and for seven years it has been legal. I wonder if the committee ruled against my muffler but forgot to tell me.
Yes, PF the club rule so states:
"9. All reciprocating engines of .10 cubic inches piston displacement, or larger, will be
equipped with an effective muffling device. In those cases where the muffler's
effectiveness is in question, the Executive Committee will make a decision on an
individual basis."
Been that way for almost 15 years now. It has only been enforced once that I know of if any metal object hangs on the exhaust.
Now we have for 5 years been subject to a clique that somehow has a notion that their dozen or so own the facility and the other 90 or so are there just to pay the mortgage. Those runway blockers don't pay any attention to the rules stated on the flight stations so don't worry about it!
For all, these pictures are old and may contain some reworked words, however the messages are clear. They all have been replaced, but since the "elite" can't follow simple instructions, I no longer take pictures.
Of course PF you have an option to get this facility returned to the Jump-Starting Proud Club it once was. You know what is needed.
Don't know what happened to these images. Never happened before.
