We are glad we did. Rough River 2010 was a great time, with great people, great aeroplanes and great weather.

Are you back in the States again, where located ?

Dave do not archive ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 08:55:25 AM PST US From: JEFF ROBERTS Subject: Europa-List: Hose selection As I'm in the process of pulling my engine I have noticed some chaffing of the larger coolant hoses behind the engine. Also the area on the hose directly behind the muffler appears to have surface fractures due to the muf heat. Yes it was wrapped with heat shield. My question is what have others done when replacing these larger hoses. I have seen the better silicon hoses from the auto supply houses but I'm not sure of the 90 degree bends working with this type. Would they kink etc. I would be curious to what others have done to replace these? Thanks in advance!! Jeff R.

All shaped and the correct lengths. I only had to buy the small bore hoses for the carb heaters which are easy to buy. I am very happy with the hoses.

No 180 knot ground speeds like going east, but fine flying weather. One big thunderstom in Arizona that we diverted around. We three flew together all the way till mid flight today when we split toward our homes. Bob continued from RR to Florida for more fun. I had a great time. It was good to meet all those fine folks in person. We left coasters are already talking about getting together again. Thanks All...

Where did you stop for the night if you don't mind me asking? As a result of this trip, other trips, like to the beach or Florida to visit relatives just got a lot closer. Can't wait til next year. We need to add another day to the RR visit.
