High Pressure



The Turbos of the Twin Comanche transform the brave IO-320 engines into 2 high performance, 25,000 Feet and 200 Knots fast hot rods. But they need good caring, especially around the 2 or 3 major air leakages. One of them is the turbo box, which moves a little flap inside the box and needs to be very airtight. Well, see above how it looks when being tested with a new seal on the kitchen table and waiting to be intensively tested in FL 200.
