For those who want to be part of the trip but didn't get a reservation at the Crew's
Inn in time, here's your link:
http://www.ocracokevillage.com/index.html
For purposes of being close to the rest of the gang, I'd suggest concentrating
your lodging search in the area of Silver Lake, specifically the following establishments:
Anchorage Inn
Harborside Motel
Joyce's of Ocracoke
Bluff Shoal Motel
Captain's Cottage
Captain's Landing
I'm recommending these based on geography only. The Captain's Landing is the only
other one I've personally stayed at (it's very nice.)
We can still manage to hang out together and take side trips and major meals as
a group even if we're scattered across two or three lodging establishments.
Walkie-talkie and cell phone communications should be easy on such a small place.
The facilities listed above are all within two city blocks of each other and Crew's
Inn. We'll want to be on bikes for the bulk of the getting around (part
of the island charm, and a good way to outrun any mosquitos, which BTW aren't
near the problem they once were in ages past.)
If anyone currently registered at Crew's decides to back out, I'd ask that you
tell the List first, so someone else in our group can claim your reservation.
Maybe you can scalp it and make a buck off your RV friends.
Hope this helps someone get off the sidelines and join the fun. I will leave it
to others to plan our formation arrival and the in-flight videography, blog
our travelogue, etc. ;-)

I guess i am out of the loop!
I wish I had a camera with me the weekend before last... Could have snapped
a few Formation pictures that would have really been cool. Had a friend
following me in my RV-4 in his Giles 202, we were running along at about
170mph when he rolled inverted and came in extremely close, we flew this way
for a good while before he rolled back upright and we flew the rest of the
way home. But him being inverted with the smoke coming out just above and to
the right of my vertical stab, was the coolest formation flying I have done
yet.

Len,
My bird is down for maintenance (unexpected delay), just
talked to the mechanic, he's not sure if it will fly by
Friday or not. Don't know when the drop-dead time is to
release my spot, but will waive off if the OVRV guys think
it's getting too late. If you have contact info for the
ringmaster, I would appreciate it. BTW, I bought Denny's old
Extra, but haven't flown it enough to take it out of town
comfortably yet, and pretty sure it wouldn't mix well with 3-
ship or larger formations anyhow. Scott

Hi Scott,
At this point you are good to go. Please take your time and don't rush things
with your plane or flight planning on our account. Fly safe and we'll see you
when you get here.
As a reminder, in order to fly on Saturday you MUST attend the ground school
on Friday evening. Pizza is at 6pm and the presentations start at 7pm.
If you miss the ground school and show up on Saturday you'll still have a
good time with the gang!
Thanks for the heads up and again.....no 'gotta get there itis'..smile!

Guys:
We are planning at the moment to meet at Winston Salem (INT) on Friday
morning at 10:00am for briefing for the 1 1/2 hour flight to PKB. Meeting in
Winston since James is going to come up on Thursday night and stay at my house
... that means two planes already at INT.
All are welcome to join up with us ... need to come for a ground planning
session with us though as we plan to get some practice in on the way !!!
The plan as of now:
Fly into INT ... come to Len's hanger ... #23 South Tee Hangers ... front
row facing runway 4-22. We can check wx and plan there ... planned launch to
PKB at 10:30am. If anything changes I will post it to SERV.

Ohio Valley RVators,
Heads up....keeping an eye on the wx from all directions....so far
the early forecast is looking very doable! Hmmmmm....did Rick just
say....'very doable'??? What does he mean by that??? I'll tell ya'
what that means.....basically, again early on.....Ohio wx is calling
for scattered Tstorms late afternoon on Thursday, Friday, & Saturday
then looking severe clear on Sunday.
Well, what does that mean to all of you?? It means that you should
have no problem getting here but you may run into a Tstorm somewhere
on the way. Fly around it or set down till it passes then bring it on
in. If we have a Tstorm at PKB during your arrival then sit it out
and it should be gone in 20 minutes.
Cloud coverages looks like scattered at 3k & 6k...again...early
report. The real good news will be RTB on Sunday.....looking superb
for the all up and return in all directions.
There you have it....so far we are T Minus 45 hours on the count down.
I'll have the work on the fuel tomorrow and will post here....you
won't pay anymore than $2.86/gal (self serve) and I'm hoping it will
be cheaper.
Looks like we may have more hangar space than I thought....I got 20
bucks OFF the normal overnight hangar fee so you only pay 5
bucks/night if you want inside...again....first come 1st serve (after
Falcon/Team RV/Buckeye). If you want 'in' be sure to let me know when
you arrive.
Parking - keep 'em nice and tight gang.....we gotta' get 45 RV's on
the ramp on top of the normal traffic....plus some Indy guys coming
in Saturday to say hello. This includes Flight Leads....when you
bring your flights in/out Saturday keep 'em tight.
Be sure to bring:
- your safety cap
- your kneeboards.....I NEVER fly formation without my kneeboard
- a couple pencils, I get tired of loaning mine out....if aren't
writing when your flight lead is briefing then he is going to either
think you know it all or you don't know anything.
- Money (cashola/centabos/dinero/greenbacks)
- Credit card(s)
- you little wheel chocks...the airport only has the BIG ones and
they don't fit under RV wheel pants....last year Steve Campbells RV
(sorry to beat a dead horse Steve) rolled into the fence and busted
his rudder....and Lefty has a busted up wrist from chasing down an RV
a couple months ago.
- your best attitude
- your best smile
If anybody has any
problems/issues/concerns/criticism/misunderstandings or whatever with
any of the PKB staff/line guys/Control Tower/fellow pilots or me or
whoever....please come to ME and let ME know so I can take care of it
asap.....we aim to please :
)!!
Oh yea...if your are DRIVING in.....park at the MAIN PARKING this
year right in front of the terminal by the Hertz car rentals. Get
your ticket and write 'RV' on it.....when you leave you will NOT have
to pay for ANY parking. Any issues let me know and I'll sick The Dogg
on 'em.
Exception to the above is our 2 courtesy cars and Dan Lloyd's taxi
bus for transportion to/fro the hotel. Dan, you park where you did
last year and the courtesy cars will be parked alongside Dan or
inside the fence with me.
When you arrive....BE SURE to sign in with Lefty in the UPSTAIRS of
the General Aviation building on the main ramp....same as last year.
Also, if you don't have your name on your shirt PLEASE wear your name
tag (Lefty has 'em) so we all know who you are.
Oh yea...looks like we have a 172 and maybe an Archer for the photo
ships....cross your fingers.....anybody that likes to take pics and
is not flying.....bring your camera....I may need you to take pics
from the photo ship(s).
Also, we will probably do some media rides sometime over the weekend
and possibly for the all up on Sunday. Volunteers are always
appreciated. If you get approached by any media folks....be sure to
mention my name and tell them what a great guy I am....smile.

Len- is there still an odd man in the SERV group (don't go there!) who might need
a roommate for the clinic? I am getting squirmy about the wx forecast and
might bail on Shine'R, who would then need a roommate again...
Just wondering what the options are.
I hate this summer storm stuff. Yesterday the unforecast late afternoon TSTM's
kept Miriam and me from making a 45 minute flight to see our son on his 23rd
birthday. Turns out we made the right call,as we got hit with TSTM's on what
would have been the return leg last night. @#$%!

RE the wx, I hear ya. I went up yesterday evening. I stayed within 20
miles of 8A7 because of the showers in the area...and I _still_ almost got
caught out due to rain. The stuff pops quickly when it wants to.
Oh, and don't forget to keep an eye on the tropical thing brewing in the

You probably have a better shot at circumnavigating the system from down south.
I'll make good use of my time getting the place ship-shape for the 25th.
This was a sad decision... plus I just got word that a builder who had agreed to
sell me a nice canopy cover for half price sold it today after I said I would
take it. His check left here yesterday in the mail.
On one level, a crummy day indeed.

Is anyone on-line? It does not look good. Though I could easilly get out
of Raleigh, I would estimate that it would be hard to get through the
mountains under these layers, and it looks like the Cu's are already forming
and climbing, so it would be hard to get through on-top. There is a route
open to the North - swinging to the East of Washington and then over lower
PA though that route has a lot of 1200'-1600' cielings. And the Tstorms
are starting to form all over the place - it is raining here right now.
The bold pilot in me would have a go at it. The part of me that wants to be
an old pilot is hesitant to launch.
I've often wondered if we have access to enough qualified formation pilots
to hold our own mini-clinic? For example, including ex-military pilots
around here?

The mountains around HSP and LWB are covered in the White Death, and the Cu is

The voice telling you to wait awhile is your life insurance agent's ;-)
Nice day to be inside at work with kids puking in the waiting room, in the exam

The EAA 309 fly-in is tomorrow at 0800 for breakfast. Young Eagle flights
start at 1000. If the weather tomorrow is like the past several days, it
will be a drive-in (at least for breakfast). As I will be working, I will
not be there. Hope you all can make it since the clinic is off. Love
summertime, but not the foggy mornings and CU afternoons.

FYI -
The new picture area has been set up to allow everyone to upload photos you
might want to share. Just go to the SERV site (http://bowenaero.com/serv),
follow the "new photo gallery" link on the right, and then click on the
"Login" link at the top left of the page. The login name and password are
the same as the roster. Email me if you don't remember. Once you log in,
you will see a uploads folder. Click on it, and then "add photo" at the top
left. There are a couple different ways to upload, and that's all explained
pretty well on the web page. When you are done, let me know and I'll move
the pictures to an appropriate folder so others can see it.
I've already moved some of the pictures from the old album to the new, but
I'm not going to move all of them. Let me know if some of your favorites
are missing and I'll move them.
Let me know if you have any questions.
PS - This photo gallery is free as long as we "are in good standing". This
means we have to use the site and order merchadise at least once a year (See
below). A pretty easy quota to meet! So, the next time you are hard up for
a fathers day gift or something, order some prints, or a mug with your plane
on it, whatever, from the site and we should be set!

Ditto this message.
The SERV crew members who you have not met have been working extra hard at
getting ready for this event. Having been to several myself, I knew how
valuable this would have been to all of us.
We decided though to err on the side of safety although each of us were
tempted at some (different) time.
For Mason City, I've decided maybe I need to get a week's head start on the
summer weather here in the Carolinas. :-)
Fly safe, have a great time and (somebody) take plenty pictures.

| Subject: | Lightspeed EI Problem |
Guys:
Need you help on troubleshooting a problem on my Lightspeed. I have 355
hours on my 8A and the problems started surfacing about 50 hours ago. I started
chasing the problem but was looking in the wrong direction.
RPM gauge on my Rky Mtn uMonitor was all over the place ... giving me all
sorts of varying numbers when the plane got warmed up ... talked with Rky Mtn
... checked wiring and finally rewired the plug. Nothing changed ...
At this same time ... noticed that the CHTs were indicating hotter than
normal ... no explanation ... thought that was the uMonitor also.
On runups the lighspeed seem to be a little rough but not so much that you
would not fly .. in fact ... I wondered if the rough was my imagination. The
the last couple of starts on the lighstpeed the prop stopped very quckly
after a half turn or so ... now I knew there was something going on here ...
thought it might be timing ... but that checked out dead on.
Then yesterday the Lightspeed failed completely on runup ...my rpm gauge is
connected only to the Lightspeed and not the mag on the other side ...SO it
turns out all this time with the rpm varying ... was not the gauge but the
Lightspeed ....
I have the cowl off ... checked wiring ... nothing wrong ... checked timing
... good ....??????
Klaus is out of his office until June 28 ... so I am down for a month .

Your symptoms sound similar to some that I have experienced. Every time my
EI failed it was because the pick-up couldn't keep time with the engine. My
failure was always in the wires coming from the pickup. They would usually
test fine, until I moved them slightly, simulating the rockin'-n-rollin' of
the running Lycoming.
Try wiggling the wiring while testing it.

Have you checked your power and ground wiring? An intermittent
interruption in power to the unit could cause those symptoms.
If you want to borrow my Plasma II unit to trouble shoot the problem,
you are welcome to it. I don't need it right now. #%@#*%&###.

Allow me to add that I'd come down this weekend to help you work on your ignition,
but I'm going to be tied up with my son's wedding Saturday, and thereafter
with getting ready for hosting June 25th. You'll get through without me somehow...
Heads up for all SERV pilots: in my quest for some food that won't require me to
spend the whole time at the grill with my back to my guests like last year,
I am looking at buying a vat of BBQ from the Homestead Resort. Had some of this
at a wedding last month and it was wonderful!!!
Don't forget that the river is warm and full now, perfect for tubing. Ask Dean
and Jeanine Meylor about that. You guys thast came last summer and didn't stay
to float the river missed a treat.
It's gonna be great. Even if Len has to arrive as GIB :-)

Oh, no you don't! You can't miss Stormy's Fly-In for a wimpy little ignition

Our EAA Chapter has what we call the "242 Flyers". This is a "fly-out" that
is planned for the group this Saturday, weather permitting.
I checked and all of the SERV gang is welcomed to attend.
Anybody "IN"???
James
---------------------------
Here's the latest on the June 18 242 Fliers Fly-out.
We will be flying to Phil Essey's grass strip just over the South Carolina /
North Carolina line. The coordinates for the strip are:
34-41.4 N
79-27.4 W
The field is approximately 4 miles south of Laurinburg.
It is 8 miles southwest of MEB Laurinburg Maxton airport.
Another landmark is three miles to the west of the field, a large horse barn
with a green roof and a lot of white fencing.
There are three hangers on the field, two small ones on either side of a
large quonset building. Painted on the concrete in front of the hangers is
an Air Force star in a circle symbol.
The 35 / 17 runway is in excellent shape and is 75 feet wide by 2800 feet
long. Cessna 421s and Caravans have landed there often, and recently 3 or 4
RVs dropped in.
Phil has one rule for the field and that is no buzzing the field allowed
unless some one can watch and some one is always watching.
Phil will serve us hamburgs and hotdogs around 12 noon. The BBQ house he
wanted to take us to isn't open until 5 PM.
He's planning on our arrival around 10:30 AM.
The field is 87 miles from CUB, so we should meet at the SAC at 8:15 - 8:30
for a briefing. The Champs and 140s leave about 8:45, the 172s about 9:15,
and the RVs leave about 9:45.
So far I have 8 - 10 expecting to go. More are welcome and wanted!
Email me at artlynch(at)avidaviator.com or call me at 794-3215.
Leave work on the answering device if you don't catch me.
All the best to you,
Art Lynch
Avid Aviator

Then you'll have to backseat with Leggs next weekend, and fly behind that pieced-together
Lightspeed ignition (man, am I glad I didn't buy one of those).
I know it only _looks_ like you're avoiding Stormy's place, but your track record
is, well, let's just say you're listed as AWOL.

Reminder:
Stormy's Third Annual Fly-in River Blast at Hop-Along Airfield (12VA) is on for
Saturday, June 25th (somebody please add it to the calendar).
Arrivals starting around 10am, lunch from noon-2pm, optional river tubing trip
from 2-4 (bring a bathing suit and towel, sunblock). Some tubes are available
here, but it would help if everyone who has one would bring an inner tube for
their own use Air for inflation available on site. We will provide a place
to change clothes, and shuttle service to the put-in (take out point is off the
end of the runway :-)
Lunch will be served at 12:00 - BBQ from the Homestead Resort, with baked beans,
slaw, potato salad, chips and drinks! Donations accepted but optional. BYO
dessert if you want to. If it's too much trouble, just bring yourself and your
water sports apparrel.
The river level is good, thanks to recent rains, and the water temp is now quite
nice for tubing and general relaxation. The Cowpasture River is the only entirely
unpolluted river left in the state of Virginia, and we front on a half-mile
of it :-) You won't be sorry if you add this activity to the usual hangin'
out and eatin' we do at these get-togethers.
Hugely spacious and private camping sites are, as always, available for any adventurous
souls who want to pitch a tent beneath their wing or down on the river
bank by the fire pit. You can use the house plumbing and other amenities if
you're not truly self-sufficient in the wild ;-) We even have AC available by
long extension cord for the CPAP/BiPAP crowd. The red carpet is rolled out
for anyone who wants to camp Friday or Saturday nights as part of their fly-in
experience. Just let me know so I can mow...
I have planned the food this time so that our family can take care of any leftovers,
so I'm really cool with the turnout whether it's many or few, and there's
no real need to RSVP. I'll make the weather call Friday evening, and the rain
date will be July 2, the following Saturday (knowing this is Crossfire's fly-in
date).
Hope to see you all here!

Stormy,
I'm looking forward to your results....
We would like to add EI to our -6's here in Louisa....but I have to say...it
looks like the EI have needed more work than the mags have....
Maybe the EI guys should keep a spare mag around so they don't miss "SPECIAL
EVENTS" like your fly-in.....
We are looking forward to your fly-in and should be there with bells
on...smile
I read a very good report on Dougs Forum about the E-P mags and copied here
in case you didn't read it.

I have a P-Mag on my RV6 for about a hundred hours now and have been very
impressed with it's performance. The increase in engine smoothness was
noticable immediately and start up is instant, hot or cold. Installation was
very simple since it fits on the engine just like a mag. I have noticed a
drop in fuel consumption of nearly a gallon an hour in cruise. At the same
cruise power setting as before I notice an increase of 3 to 4 mph in
indicated airspeed or I can maintain the same airspeed as before and reduce
the manifold pressure by 1". It is evident thet the P-Mag is getting more
complete combustion out of the fuel charge. In cruise turning off the Slick
mag has no effect at all but turning off the P- Mag results in a very
noticable loss of power (rpm stays the same since I have a c.s. prop). As
far as reliability is concerned so far no problems at all. My new stock
Lycoming came with Slick mags and these have been anything but reliable. The
first one quit at 280 hrs and the second one at 340 hrs. My previous
experience with Bendix mag has been better. I am building an RV7A now and
plan to equip it with two P-Mags. By the way P-Mags are in production and
quite a few have been shipped already. There is however a lead time of
several weeks, so plan ahead.

Torque is really good at eating aluminum shavings, just don't tell my
wife the animal doctor. That's about all the help he offers, cleaning
the floor.
As for going next week, I'm available if someone needs 215 lbs of
ballast.
Back to the basement, to paraphrase Mayor Marion Berry, "Rivets don't

Stormy,
Let us know what you think of them. I plan on using them on my O-290

Then you'll have to backseat with Leggs next weekend, and fly behind that pieced-together
Lightspeed ignition (man, am I glad I didn't buy one of those).
I know it only _looks_ like you're avoiding Stormy's place, but your track record

Subject: RVSouthEast-List: Stormy's Fly-In
Reminder:
Stormy's Third Annual Fly-in River Blast at Hop-Along Airfield (12VA) is on for
Saturday, June 25th (somebody please add it to the calendar).
Arrivals starting around 10am, lunch from noon-2pm, optional river tubing trip
from 2-4 (bring a bathing suit and towel, sunblock). Some tubes are available
here, but it would help if everyone who has one would bring an inner tube for
their own use Air for inflation available on site. We will provide a place
to change clothes, and shuttle service to the put-in (take out point is off the
end of the runway :-)
Lunch will be served at 12:00 - BBQ from the Homestead Resort, with baked beans,
slaw, potato salad, chips and drinks! Donations accepted but optional. BYO
dessert if you want to. If it's too much trouble, just bring yourself and your
water sports apparrel.
The river level is good, thanks to recent rains, and the water temp is now quite
nice for tubing and general relaxation. The Cowpasture River is the only entirely
unpolluted river left in the state of Virginia, and we front on a half-mile
of it :-) You won't be sorry if you add this activity to the usual hangin'
out and eatin' we do at these get-togethers.
Hugely spacious and private camping sites are, as always, available for any adventurous
souls who want to pitch a tent beneath their wing or down on the river
bank by the fire pit. You can use the house plumbing and other amenities if
you're not truly self-sufficient in the wild ;-) We even have AC available by
long extension cord for the CPAP/BiPAP crowd. The red carpet is rolled out
for anyone who wants to camp Friday or Saturday nights as part of their fly-in
experience. Just let me know so I can mow...
I have planned the food this time so that our family can take care of any leftovers,
so I'm really cool with the turnout whether it's many or few, and there's
no real need to RSVP. I'll make the weather call Friday evening, and the rain
date will be July 2, the following Saturday (knowing this is Crossfire's fly-in
date).
Hope to see you all here!

Stormy,
I'm looking forward to your results....
We would like to add EI to our -6's here in Louisa....but I have to say...it
looks like the EI have needed more work than the mags have....
Maybe the EI guys should keep a spare mag around so they don't miss "SPECIAL
EVENTS" like your fly-in.....
We are looking forward to your fly-in and should be there with bells
on...smile
I read a very good report on Dougs Forum about the E-P mags and copied here
in case you didn't read it.

I have a P-Mag on my RV6 for about a hundred hours now and have been very
impressed with it's performance. The increase in engine smoothness was
noticable immediately and start up is instant, hot or cold. Installation was
very simple since it fits on the engine just like a mag. I have noticed a
drop in fuel consumption of nearly a gallon an hour in cruise. At the same
cruise power setting as before I notice an increase of 3 to 4 mph in
indicated airspeed or I can maintain the same airspeed as before and reduce
the manifold pressure by 1". It is evident thet the P-Mag is getting more
complete combustion out of the fuel charge. In cruise turning off the Slick
mag has no effect at all but turning off the P- Mag results in a very
noticable loss of power (rpm stays the same since I have a c.s. prop). As
far as reliability is concerned so far no problems at all. My new stock
Lycoming came with Slick mags and these have been anything but reliable. The
first one quit at 280 hrs and the second one at 340 hrs. My previous
experience with Bendix mag has been better. I am building an RV7A now and
plan to equip it with two P-Mags. By the way P-Mags are in production and
quite a few have been shipped already. There is however a lead time of
several weeks, so plan ahead.

Put Torque to work buckin' rivets so you can arrive in style next year, Bill.
Meanwhile, I hope you can find an empty seat for next week and join us.

James, we need you as an official BBQ taster, plus this is your chance to interview
my Dad about his B-24 Liberator / 8th AAF experiences with the Tuskeegee

Hope everything works so you can make the trip next week. We'd be honored to have

Torque is really good at eating aluminum shavings, just don't tell my
wife the animal doctor. That's about all the help he offers, cleaning
the floor.
As for going next week, I'm available if someone needs 215 lbs of
ballast.
Back to the basement, to paraphrase Mayor Marion Berry, "Rivets don't
pound themselves."

Me, neither, Dale. It's never a pleasurable experience. Just kidding!!! I love
the "green carpet" treatment I get there every time ;-) Google us on AirNav.com
at "12VA" for precise GPS coordinates. Ignore all the dire warnings about
displaced thresholds, power lines, etc. The lines are buried, the trees cut
back, the field is quite ample for an RV flown by a pilot familiar with "rough-field"
ops. My friends keep coming back for more, so it must be okay :-) -Stormy

We're guessing we need food for at least 25 souls, but attendance has varied from

It wasn't my choice, Steve. That decision was made for me by others, specifically
the local zoning boys and the FAA. That said, being officially on the map
and in the database does have some upside.
Looking forward to seeing you and your FL friends next Saturday. The long term
wx forecast is already looking favorable. Maybe that's a bad sign?

Since Torque really isn't that good at riveting I thought I would ask
ya'll.
It looks like I've got two weeks off until my next assignment and the
fuselage is at a stage where I need some help riveting it together. (If
only my arms were longer!)
If any of you would like to help with riveting my RV-9 fuselage together
I would greatly appreciate it! Don't worry, there are enough rivets for
everyone to pound so you all don't have to rush over to my house at the
same time.
I and my RV-9 are in Huntersville, NC. (Yes, I'm like the guy who built
a boat in his basement and realized there was no way to get it out.
Only I know I can it get my RV out, it will just take a saw and a
hammer.)
You can reach me on my cell phone (704) 607-4572 to set up your riveting

Hello everyone,
I've acquired all the tools and just about have
the shop (garage) in order. I intend to begin
construction this labor day weekend on an RV-8
standard build. My wife and I sat in Van's RV-8A at
Oshkosh three years ago, but have never actually flown
in any RV. If people are willing, I would like to
just ride along in a couple of different planes to be
sure the 8 is the one for me. The obvious alternative
would be the 7. So, if any 7 or 8 drivers (A and/or
Taildraggers) are looking for a passenger to help
cover some flying expenses, and you're close to
Hickory, please let me know.
Thanks for any assistance,

Bart, I have an 8 based at Lake Norman (14A). Would be glad
to scoot over to Hickory, probably some evening would work
best. No expenses allowed, just passing along a favor.
Thanks again to Mike Munn and Len Leggette who gave me my
first rides. I haven't built, so can only answer flying

Good morning everyone:
Decidede to collect a head count for the fly-in Saturday so I can be sure I have
enough food and have the transportation logistics covered for the river trip...
we may ned a bus, depending ;-)
Consider this an optional head count: you can always back out, and you can still
come if you don't RSVP, but I'd prefer to know how many guests I'm expecting.
Please reply with your # of persons, and whether you want to float the river with
us or plan to stay put and amuse yourself for 90 minutes while we have all
the fun , also whether you have an inner tube for yourself or need to borrow
one of ours.
That's it. Thanks, everyone. Weather is lookin' GREAT for Saturday: sunny and
mid-80's. That river is gonna feel so good!

Hey, fellas. Thanks for checking in... Nope, not gonna even start the mag project
before next week. I made the ? mistake of shopping 3 different vendors for
parts and now I have to wait to see what they ship and if I thought of everything
(switches, wire, fast-ons, crimpers, connectors, etc.) plus I'm still gathering
parts for the "proper" firewall penetrations - gonna wire the plane right
this time :-)
I will have the Pmags out on display for fondling and such... just don't take 'em
with you. They look nice.

From the sounds of it, you will get the Pmag's installed, tested, and
flying just in time to help me with mine, which should be in, oh, two

My screw holes are off by about 5 minutes, too far to fudge I think.
Hartzell said they've heard of this before on RV's. There was another
lucky guy in Ohio just last month. The Hartzell spinner assembly is
different somehow to avoid this very thing.
The service was a reseal. It turns out that the "quad seal" was pinched
during original assembly. So far it's cost me 10 days downtime and
$503...and still counting. We have a trip planned to the coast
Friday...look like we may need to rely on the Volvo instead.

Never mind having enough BBQ for this crowd; I'm beginning to wonder if I can scrounge
enough tubes :-) A very good problem to have!
FWIW, beach rafts and inflatable Barney Dinosaur figures, etc, might work in a
pinch. Nothing beats the rugged truck tire tube for all-around service on the
river, though. I've even floated the river once in just a life vest, dragging
my butt the whole way, but I won't do it again ;-)

I considered that, but the existing holes are too close to the new ones.
They're close enough that the new and old platenut holes would overlap a
little. I'll look at it again try rotating the bulkhead 90 and 180
degrees.

500 is better than 1700 but I feel your pain as it is a new one too.
Hearing from Ken and your prop shop's comments, this is not an uncommon
problem.
I just checked Vans web store:
# SPINNER, C/S-13 This is the standard spinner kit for all constant speed
models. The rear bulkhead is 13 inches in diameter. The spinner cone and
rear bulkhead are the same components used on the fixed pitch models.
# SPINNER, FP-13 This is the standard spinner kit for all fixed pitch
installations today. The rear bulkhead is 13 inches in diameter.
Seems he doesn't list the part seperately....but from the discription, that
is the only part different from the FP spinner. Maybe we should make Vans
aware of this problem so he can list the bulkhead seperately in the store
and put a story in the newsletter that this misallignment of the front nose
cup of the serviced c/s hubs don't always align and may need to be replaced.
When I was scratching my head about what to do to ours...an older aviation
person counseled me no not just drilling 4 more new holes as it would weeken
the bulkhead...so I was pondering was to fill-in the holes or add a
reinforcing plate.......but once I actually marked how much I needed to
move, it was only a little bit, as previously posted.
I liked Kens idea but my holes weren't off enough for the new holes to miss
the old holes completely.
Did you send it to Hartzel in Ohio?? and if you did, why didn't they fix it
under warranty??
Good Luck,
Bob Martin

So far, the weatherman is saying high of 89 degrees (that's ideal tubing weather
:-) and 20% precip chance with partly cloudy skies. Too early to get a wind
forecast or to predict am fog, pm convective T-storm activity. You're not _jealous,_
are you, Leggs?
Let me just throw out for consideration that the river is enjoyable as a wading
or sitting-in-a-lawn-chair with just your feet in the water experience... we
do that about 10 x as often as we take a float trip. With the river so close
by, it's hard not to get in and relax for a few hours between work and suppertime.
Those for whom 90 minutes in an inner tube bouncing through some occasional
very tame rapids sounds like too much adventure are welcome to enjoy the "River
Picnic" aspect, sitting in a lawn chair with iced tea, waiting for us to
arrive at the take-out point. Please come prepared to at least get your feet
wet, even if tubing and getting your butt wet isn't for you :-) My 3 golden

Larry, I watched and talked to the mechanics at the prop shop in burlington
as they OH my prop.The outer hub is not torqued so you could tigthen it up
some more if that will help.You can do this by using a bar with two holes in
it and run bolts into the hub.This is the way m&m does it.Maybe you can
adjust it to your benfit without a new bulk head.

Ahrg! This conflicts with what I've been told by Hartzell and US
Propeller. Hartzell said it could be adjust like you said, but would have
to be taken back to the prop shop and done on "the table". The prop shop
said "that will never torque down to the same spot. Every RV we've
overhauled has had that problem." So, being a card-carrying wimp
especially when it comes to mega-dollar, lift support systems such as
propellers, I've ordered a new bulkhead. It $hould be here in the
morning.

It was done by US Prop in Gibsonville, NC., who said there was no chance
at warrenty service since I bought it so long ago. But after a couple
calls to Hartzell, and since it was an original assembly type of problem,
they are going to cover the labor costs. Good deal.

Thanks for the offers. I've was able to use my existing one by rotating it
90` and drilling new holes, as Ken suggested earlier. Of coarse this was
AFTER I had already ordered a replacement from Van's, overnight $hipping
too.
Everything is reassembled and ready for a test run and flight tomorrow. I'm

Subject: RVSouthEast-List: Stormy's Weather Forecast
I predict that in the next couple of days ... some type of Northeaster will
come down bringing strong T storms and heavy rain in the NC & VA areas ... or
A tropical depression will form off the coast of NC extending inland just
north of Roanoke, Va producing low visibility and poor flying conditions ... or
A low in the Gulf will quickly form developing into a hurricane by landfall
on Thursday night then quickly moving up the east coast on a direct path over
Clifton Forge, Va with expected arrival Saturday morning ...
THERE IS NO WAY "STORMY" IS GOING TO HAVE GREAT WEATHER !!!

Stormy,
Looks like I will be there for the big shindig this Sat. My son, Paul,
possibly will be coming, if he does, the tubing trip is out as he has to
get home that afternoon.

Hey, gang. The 3rd Annual looks like it's a "go," despite Len's Lennish skepticism
about the weather.
The current forecast is for mostly sunny with a 90F daytime high, which will make
for a nice picnic and river day. Winds should be light and ceilings high,
just the way we like 'em.
http://usairnet.com/cgi-bin/launch/code.cgi?sta=KROA&model=avn&state=VA&Submit=Get+Forecast
Here's the link to our listing on Airnav, in case anyone needs directions. There's
even a window for entering your home field identifier and getting a bearing
and distance to our place, as well as pages for searching out the cheapest
fuel enroute. Click here for GPS COORDINATES:
http://www.airnav.com/airport/12VA
We will be expecting arrivals from 10am till noon on Saturday, but feel free to
come earlier. Our multicom is 122.85. I'm using a handheld radio, so range
is very limited by local terrain. You may not hear a reply to your calls until
you are 3 miles out. Panic not...
There is always the possibility of confusing my strip with the neighbor's airfield
next door. The strips are parallel and only about 0.3 miles apart. Approaching
Hop-Along from the southeast, for runway 32, we will be on the left, while
Riverwood airstrip is on the right. My hangar and house are both easily visible
on the right side of the strip at the far end; my neighbor's hangar at
Riverwood is on the left of his runway, and his house is generally hidden by trees.
My airstrip extends all the way to the road; his stops one hayfield short
of the road. Numerous highly-visible white plastic-wrapped round bales are
stored all over our farm, while next door the hay is all indoors. This should
enable you to tell the two places apart, but keep in mind that no one has ever
been shot for landing at Riverwood by accident.
Anticipate runway 32 for landing, and 14 for departure. This uses the natural
slope and most open approach to best advantage. Orange windsock is mid-field
on the right hand side. Don't turn right off the runway until you pass the blaze-orange
/ blue cone taxiway marker. There's a ditch before that point.
Schedule of activities:
10:00-12:00 Arrivals, fellowship, croquet, frisbee, horseshoes
12:00 BBQ Lunch buffet
2:00 shuttle to river put-in for the tubers; everyone not tubing but wanting to
wade or hang out at the riverfront can walk 1/8 mile to the take-out point behind
the house.
4:00 exit river, change clothes, depart for home.
What to bring:
~truck-size inner tube (inflate once you get here) if tubing. We have a few spares,
but no promises ;-)
~lawn chair (if you have room in your plane) for each person
~towel, change of clothes, as needed
~sunblock
~shoes you can get wet - ***very important.*** You will want foot protection while
wading or tubing; the rocks are mostly smooth but still hard to walk on without
sandals or tennis shoes. You will stub your toes otherwise!
~baseball cap (helpful to keep gnats out of your eyes)
~camera - so we can post pics for the rest of the gang
Attendance so far - the following "internet folks" have replied affirmatively as
of this morning:
Leggett, Len & Donna - need tubes
Glasgow, Steve - has tube
Shrek, Ron (& wife?) has tube, may need one more
Craig C-172 - tubing intentions unknown
Metclafe, Bob (+1) - need 2 tubes
Martin, Bob & Larry - not tubing
Rose, Joe (+1) - need one tube
Ensing, Dale (+1) - has tubes
McBride, Rick & wife - not tubing
There are other locals expected as well - looks like a good group. I think I have
enough food on order; going to Sam's Club tonight for more victuals. Contact
me here if you haven't RSVP'd yet but are coming. How 'bout it, Rich Reynolds;
are you in or out?
This is going to be so much fun, I may have to offer a reprise on July 4 for those
who can't join us on the 25th.

I hope that he can come. He flies for NetJets and starts back to work
Sunday AM on his 7 on/7 off schedule. That last day before he leaves,
there is usually some honeydos that take precedence over fun.

Sorry, Scott. Neighbor's strip is 2000 feet and has trees at both ends. Mine
is a full 2150' surveyed length and has no obstacles at either end (disregard
what AirNav says on that subject.) Plus you have a 40 foot height differential
between the two ends, and you land uphill.
What are you flying?

Brother Len,
Let me suggest you rephrase your title a bit, here.
You mean to say, of course, that your back seat is "taken," or perhaps "occupied."
Let me explain how I know this. Tonight, our family went on a shopping trip (for
picnic grub for Saturday, mostly). This included a stop at the Target store
for my wife to make a clothing return. You can see where this is going.
"I'd like to return this. please. It's too small," she explained politely to the
clerk.
"How do you know it's too small," said a smart-alec voice that sounded alot like
I was speaking, "maybe the shirt's the right size and you're..." My daughter's
hand clapped over my mouth admonishingly.
"Daddy!"
That was good for a chuckle at the time, but now I am sleeping alone tonight.
So you see why I cringe at your suggestion above.
Just trying to help, here, brother.

Were any of y'all ever able to view the video I did of the Green Sea
flyin including the Primal Fear "non-stunt" flying?
I ended up re-working the video in full-rez using apple's new H.264
codec for quicktime (which is finally available for windows too)
Barry asked about it a week or so ago but I don't know if he was ever
able to view it. Original DV file is available or I can burn a DVD
video of it if anyone's interested.
That's probably just wishful thinking on my part, though!
http://homepage.mac.com/flyingamortgage/
the H.264 version is 25 meg and the original quicktime is ~20 but
it's quarter-sized.
I have tested it on a Windows XP box with the latest version of
quicktime for windows and it works fine.

Mid-AtlRVwing(at)yahoogroups.com
Weather for tomorrow is looking good! I am so thankful for this forecast:
http://usairnet.com/cgi-bin/launch/code.cgi?sta=KROA&model=avn&state=VA&Submit=Get+Forecast
As you can see, the 11am winds are forecast to be a 70 degree crosswind for runway
32 at a scorching 1 (one) mph. I'm betting even you taildraggers can handle
that ;-) (Checkin' to see if Smoozer's awake, but he's heading to maple
leaf land for a weekend with the Canucks anyway...)
Wx looks severe clear all day long, and plenty warm.
I just spent a bundle on grub for you big fellas at Sam's Club, so bring your appetites!
We're providing everything, and there's no cover charge :-) As I mentioned
earlier, if you have a dessert you're particularly proud of, bring it
along, but we've got that covered, too.
My Fix-Or Repair-Daily tractor stalled out behind the hangar while I was mowing
yesterday - looks like massive debris in the fuel pump or injectors (gotta love
diesel fuel!). Since the tractor is broken down right where I plan to park
your planes, I will be towing it away somehow before you get here. The place
will not be 100% mowed and neat, so tough luck - look the other way if weeds
bother you :-)
If I can answer any questions about getting here or what to do after your arrival,
let me hear from you.
Later,
/Stormy out/

The runway won't be any longer next year, though ;-)

Len,
that's the first time I've tubed the Cowpasture with a fine cigar (or any other
kind) in my hand. Not sure everyone else appreciated them as much as we did,
but hey, if you can't enjoy fine tobacco outdoors, where else is left? (Don't
ever try this in your RV).
Thanks for thinking of me and packing a spare ;-)
What else are we going to come up with this summer to pass the time until Ocracoke
on Labor Day? I know, I know, don't tell me: OSH. I showed the SERV colors
at SnF; your turn this summer at AirVenture - do a good job for me.

Donna, especially honored that you ladies came along. Great to see you again.
You're a saint for putting up with the guys.

Your tubes are safe with me. I think I counted 13 tubes in the hangar whereas
I started with 9, so this is becoming a popular trick.
We simply must do that again. River season lasts till about a week after Labor
Day, then starts getting too cool, so I'm open to suggestions if a year is too
long to wait.
Glad you and Cappy made it home okay.

I am sorry that our most qualified BBQ judge was unable to make the event, and

Len was heard on the river bragging that he had been right about the low pressure
"somewhere in the south" right on schedule. He is shameless, no way around
it.
You would have liked the chance to meet my Dad and discuss the red-tailed P-51
pilots of WWII. A special treat for me was the unexpected appearance of a neighbor
I had never met before whom my Dad just met and found out was an 8th AAF
vet. The guy drove up in dress uniform with pictures of himself in WWII and
a picture of a B-17 labeled with his crew position (right waist gunner). You
could tell this meant alot to him. He's one of those greatest-generation vets
who until recently couldn't bring himself to talk about what he had seen in aerial
combat; now he and Dad are doing just that. I can only imagine what these
men have seen and experienced, and there are fewer of them left every day.
I was so caught up in the moment, hosting the party and having fun, that the
real significance of my neighbor's visit didn't sink in until later. The man
doesn't even really like airplanes, but he wanted us carefree young aviators to
see him as he once was, and to breathe the same air
with folks who might understand...
Well, there will be a next time, James, so you and Patty plan on it, okay?

Stormy,
As you know by now, Patty and I got "weathered out".
<< Seems that Len's HOODOO worked on us. :-) >>
I was on the phone with Bill trying to decide and it started RAINING!!
With our beautiful WOOD prop, we are careful not to get caught in too much rain
but we could have gotten out. The problem is/was getting BACK and Patty must
be back tonight.
We were looking forward to it. :-( Patty even had baked a batch of special
cookies.
Hopefully next time.

Some of you were wondering what that tall tower was beside the river where we put
in for the tubing trip today; it's a river stage gauge, and it reports to a
satellite which makes the data available on the web, thus:
http://www.americanwhitewater.org/gauges/id/589/
As you can see, we were tubing on a water height of about 1.8 feet, which is slightly
low for this time of year, and slightly lower than my bottom would prefer.
The anomaly on June 20 probably represents a body-dump from the bridge by the local
redneck mafia.
Future fly-in's at Hop-Along may now be predicated on good weather AND a river
stage of greater than or equal to 1.8 feet :-)
BTW, I also was asked about the airfield name... well, it's what your plane does
when you roll out here, right? Another theory is that Hop-A-Long Cassidy was
a singing cowboy hero of TV, movies and comic book fame played by an actor named:
William Boyd (no relation). And that's your trivia for tonight. If you
don't believe me, Google it.

Yes I would have. I hope you and others got to see the special Oliver North
did Sunday a couple of weeks ago (or was that last week?) on the
"Red-Tails". He did a very good job.
By the way, three of the five guys he had on there were at the event I am
part of last November. After the TV special, I spoke for over an hour with
the one that rode in Stu McCurdy's RV8 when we did the big formation in
their honor on Sunday (Spann Watson).

Paul and I had a great time. You all put on a wonderful flyin. The food
was great (you mean we left some BBQ) and you have a wonderful place there,
I love the runway down the middle of hay fields, with the house overlooking
the runway, a beautiful setting. Sorry, that we had to miss the tubing,

Not sure when the paper will need "filler" and run the story...
10-4 on the front porch; we've realized for a long time that a shady place to sit
on the rear deck would outweigh passive solar gain in the wintertime; just
not sure how best to do it on a budget. Thinking about an expanded deck with
attached gazebo on one corner. Remember that most of the time there are no visitors'
planes out there to look at, just grass growing :-)
It is alot of preparation; we're still feeling the fatigue, but ready to face Monday.
Next year you guys gotta tube; no excuses
