| Subject: | Re: Exhaust Springs |
Just a tip for fitting the springs.
I refitted my silencer last week, after removing it to replace all the hoses. It
was a real struggle to get the spring back on over the hook, by using long
nose vice grips to pull it up and over the hook. I found it much easier to compress
the springs by inserting a screwdriver in the bottom of the spring, and
pushing upwards to compress the spring, and then slip the top loop over the hook,
rather than using the vice grips to pull the spring upwards and over the hook.
Unfortunately, I only discovered this on the last spring ! [Rolling Eyes]

Bob and AllAn easier way; make a loop of locking wire about 3" long, hang i
t over the hookat one end of the spring with the other end of the spring in
stalled on the exhaust. Now its easy to grab the loose end of the loop with
a mole grip or your locking wire pliers and pull the hook up to the loop o
n the exhaust.Actually I think I hooked it to the top loop then pulled it d
own.Graham

Hi,
The following company supplies Southco fasteners in the UK:
Zygology Ltd
Direct Dial 01844 266025
Freephone 0808 1231221
Website www.zygology.com
I spoke to Helen Mc Corkindale (helen.mccorkindale@zygology.com).
They could get the 82-14-260-20's, but they don't hold them in stock, so you'd
have to buy a box of 100 and about 76. They already have the zinc plated versions
and can supply as many of as few as you require. He are the details:
82-14-260-16 1/4 Turn Stud Flush Slot 10 Each 0.46 Each
Regards
Carl

Guys,
Try this method I thought of whilst struggling to remove and re-fit my exhaust
one night in the hangar. You can position the exhaust exactly where you need it
with all the springs located, then just snip the tie-wraps. It save on skin
and bad language.
All the best.
Carl

| Subject: | Re: New Smartphone App for pilots |
Hi Ira,
I've downloaded your app and am currently experimenting with it. However, this
morning, I set the QNH according to the current METAR and as I drove past the
airport, avAltimeter reported the altitude as ~50ft below the published altitude
of the airport (published altitude of the airport is 40ft, my reported altitude
was -10ft!).
Does there need to be an option to calibrate the iPhone?
Cheers
Chris

| Subject: | Re: Dynon AP Panel Trim function |
I retained the 2A breaker that was already fitted in my Europa. I just wired the
pitch motor to the Dynon-AP panel, then re-wired the existing trim switch to
provide a switched earth to the appropriate pin on the AP panel depending on
which way you press it. It works like a dream and allows you to perform the simulated
trim run-away test required by the LAA.
All the best.

To stop the disintegration of springs I was told to rub heat resistant sealant
(red stuff forgot name)on the springs once sprung. Mine have lasted 13 years.

OK. I've tried the PG-44A from Newgate Simms. It's great. I put in on the upper
face of the friction plate. Now I can easily steer my plane easily and I don't
get the nose-wheel shimmy when landing. I'd thoroughly recommend it.
