Well. That's no good. What I would like to do is put a bypass filter on both engines. This is plan (A). However, because of certain agencies (that we need not mention here) the prospects of doing such is limited at best. Therefore, we have plan (B). A portable machine set up with bypass filters on it. After every flight I could plug the engines into it. The benifit of such a setup is clear. The oil would stay almost as clean as a fresh oil change every day. The challenge is:
We know where the oil is going back into the engine. The filler on the engine. What we don't know it where it's going to come out. The rear engine is a no brainer, but what to do about the front? Any ideas?
There was a 170 that got field approval of a bypass filter in Alaska. Can this information be used?
