Hi all,
In my search for an S1S, I've seen an airplane with the airflow performance system installed, but to my great surprise, the seller did not put any air filter in front of it so bugs an mosquitoes are going straight into the engine... I asked the seller why he kept it thay way and he answered that most aircraft equipped with airflow performance systems, including the big boys with Extras do not put air filters at all.
Is any of you having such setup? Did you ever get any problem such as high silicium in your oil analysis? Any other risks/concerns?
Thanks a lot!
