Picked up my “new” RV8A today. It has the IO 360 w 200hp, CS and 3 blade MBT prop. I received transition training in an RV7A from an approved Vans pilot. He taught, and it makes good sense to have the electric fuel boost pump on for takeoff and landings.
The fellow that I picked the airplane up from today has said that the electric fuel boost pump would not keep the engine running if the engine driven pump failed, so why run it in the air...
Opinions?
