1,000 hrs. Fortunately Sebring had it in stock so I don't have to wait on it coming from Italy. It should be here today.

Roughly 100 hours since we installed the new mount mentioned above and now this happened: Luckily I was on short final when it happened. Thankfully, Lockwood had the new radiator in stock ($650) and it will be here today. Per the MML we're going to check the cylinder heads and run a compression check. Should you see a Flashing Lane A and a coolant temp gauge X'd out, land ASAP.

Note: Lockwood confirmed what I had heard... a Rotax engine will continue to run without coolant for up to 30 minutes at a reduced power setting. Obviously not ideal and it could damage the engine, but it's not an immediate emergency. (The coolant temp gauge will X out at 150 C/300 F)

Update: Cylinder head and compression check were normal. Flew 1TA home this morning with no issues.
