I think I can

EI confirmed that the original fuel transducer was dead on arrival so they overnighted a new one so I could make my planned flights for the weekend. Sure enough, the FP-5L and the fuel flow on the UBG-16 worked like a charm with the new transducer. They read pretty close to each other as well, usually within .2 GPH. I auto calibrated the K factor of the FP-5L after running 48.5 gallons through it and it was only a little off. It'll be interesting to see how close it is now that it's calibrated.

Of course I can't fix anything without finding more squawks... Port nav light is out, instrument post lights are inop. The post lights were working then as I was putzing with one of them to see if it was dead or a loose connection, they all went out and now I can't get them back on. Sooner or later it'll be squawk free.

For the flights this weekend, we flew to Oceano and hiked up the beach to the north beach campground to see the monarch butterfly grove. The beach hike was nice, but pushing the stroller through the loose sand down to the water and back up was a challenge. The hike was probably about 2 miles each way. There was a lot of monarchs there and pretty neat to see, but Katie didn't see all that interested and she's the reason we went! Sunday we flew to Bakersfield and got a rental car to go shopping for the day. Lots of flying planned for this weekend too, hopefully the weather cooperates.
