MINI AIR SHOW AT THE FAIRFIELD COUNTY AIRPORT NEAR LANCASTER,OHIO 5/15/2010
WELL IT IS SATURDAY AND AFTER PLAYING A ROUND OF GOLF AT PINE HILL GOLF COURSE NEAR CARROLL,OHIO I STOPPED BY:
TO TAKE IN THE MINI AIRSHOW. BY THE WAY Carburetor heat is an anti-icing system that preheats the air before it reaches the carburetor piston in powered light aircraft engines to prevent or clear carburetor icing. It consists of a moveable flap which draws hot air into the engine intake.
