That is normal accepted procedure in the aviation community. Don't know why it's not done here. Lack of suitable hardware? Best regards, Robert Borger, President Geowhiziks & Doodlebugging, Inc.

I ordered a fuel cap from the factory, but when I got it it was to small for the receptacle. It is a nice locking fuel cap with two keys. It used it I'd have to tear out my old receptacle and install the new receptacle. That's way to much work! If somebody has not installed their fuel cap and receptacle in their airplane and is was manufactured close to my serial number I'd like to make a trade. I'm also trying ACS, but they were talking three weeks to get one and I'm not sure of the size.

Could this be due to the wide blade creating more airflow round the fuselage. It was trimmed up ok on the warp drive fixed pitch and nothing has changed (I hope!). I can't quite get my head round which way the tab on the rudder should go. -------- Graeme Bird G-UMPY Mono Classic/XS FWFD 912ULS/Woodcomp 3000/W Newby: 35 hours g(at)gdbmk.co.uk Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=383176#383176 ________________________________ Message 9 _____________________________________ Time: 11:19:01 AM PST US From: "Ivan Shaw" Subject: RE: Europa-List: Re trim with woodcomp 3000/3W Use 'rudder' trim to fly 'ball centred' then 'aileron' trim to stop any roll.
