Vans updated the oil nozzle SD (don't panic) :)

I almost had a heart attack when Van's sent out a revision to the oil nozzle SD!

Me too! Kind of odd it took them a year to send this out - it's really just a reminder. I wonder if there's been failure(s) on any non-compliant engines.

I am aware of 2 failures in non-compliant engines, not RV-12s. 1 gyrocopter, 1 fixed wing. Gen B failures.
