Citing the new economic realities-that may keep many builders from attending the big airshows this year-Emag Air has decided that in place of the usual show specials, it’ll offer a “pre-show” special on the Model 114 P-Mag ignition system for four-cylinder Lycoming and Continental engines in Experimentals. The special is 30% off the normal $1185 P-Mag model. The P-Mag ignition system contains an internal permanent-magnet alternator to supply power in the event of a main-bus power loss. The P-Mag nominally operates on ship’s power. In addition, the P-Mag (like the alternator-less E-Mag) features variable ignition advance, integrated coils, and magneto-pad mounting.For more information, visit Emag Air.

Using LEDs for lighting an aircraft has much to commend it. Low draw, reasonable cost, long life, good visibility. This month, Jim Weir takes us through the beginning steps of building these lighting systems yourself, using off-the-shelf parts and a little ingenuity.
