      There's nothing wrong with the site, Paul.  The hosting service where 
      the site is located (StartLogic.com) had quite a few of their 
      accounts compromised not long ago.  They sent out notifications to 
      account holders, passwords and authentication methods have been 
      changed, and the sites re-loaded.
      
      Google was notified of the problem but they are not very fast in 
      revisiting sites that have been cleaned up.  I believe that the AVG 
      software is using information provided by Google to warn of 
      compromised sites.
      
      >According to AVG's web shield, the site is blocked because of it's 
      >association with www.sonoragraphics.com.
      
      SonoraGraphics.com is my site and is one of those that was 
      compromised during the attacks on StartLogic.  All of the files have 
      been reloaded and the sites should now be secure.

      This redirection is per design, Paul, and is not part of an exploit

      I had no idea that I had a "reputation".  Where would one become 
      aware of such a reputation?
      
      As I mentioned, the hosting service and I have removed any exploits 
      introduced by the hackers and have taken steps to prevent future 
      attacks.  The fact that it takes search engine companies a while to 
      figure this out is beyond my control, but they have been notified.

      Mine does, but I had lowered my panel for visibility and sawed the  
      (now) interfering, excess length off the stick. I then adjusted the  
      travel so the stick almost hits the seats when going for climb position.

      Leonard,
       That is the only picture I have of my toys together. I sold "the death trap" 
      and I do have to say I sure miss it! What a great cross country airplane! The 
      higher wing  loading sure made for a more comfortable ride in the winds we 
      have been having! I do fly my Kitfox a lot more though, probably because 4 gal
      
      per hour vs 8 is easier to live with and in reality I think the Kitfox is more
      
      fun for local flying plus I have made a lot of improvements on the Fox that 
      make it even better.
       I was going to sell one of my TR3's but I can't part with it as it is just 
      to much fun to drive so I am going to take it to my cabin in North Carolina 
      leave it there, and drive the (please excuse me) mountains. I grew up in Colorado
      
      so maybe I should say hills but it is the best we have in this part of the 
      country and they are very pretty!
                                                                  Dick Maddux

       The light blue lines and the white stripes are all vinyl tape. It works out 
      real well and is very easy to do. I will see if I have a before and after

      Mike,
      I get a Virus warning when I attempt to open Merle's website,
      http://www.murlewilliamsaviation.com . Your website, www.sonargraphics.com ,
      does not produce any warnings. My website had a similar problem to Merle's.
      I got with the hosting folks and literally had to remove some of the
      Javascript graphics in the index.html file to rectify the situation because
      they were infected with a Trojan.  It appears that Merle's website has the
      same Trojan - JS:Agent-BA [Trj]- as mine had. It appears that the file,
      http://www.sonoragraphics.com/williamsaviation/ is the file that is
      producing the first warning. I didn't let the site open even that file, so
      my Avast! Antivirus didn't check any further, In my case the Trojan had
      spread to some archives in the website directory as well.  It took less than
      24 hours for Google to show it clean after I initiated the request for them
      to re-check the site after cleanup.

      Most auto parts stores have simple two-tanged non-vented gas caps. I 
      use them for wing folding. I can't say whether they'd stand up to 
      MEK, however. You'll have to do some testing.

      Dave:
      
       I had a look at the new site and I think there are a lot of things being
      done right.  First of all the name is easy to remember.  Second; they do
      have all the manuals for the Rotax engines in a nice easy to follow tables
      that include the dates of updates.  No following a line of links only to
      find yourself back where you started.  Hey you can look up data without
      leaving the site or the forum.  This is obviously a growing concern and I
      expect to see prop manuals, electrical fittings etc to eventually appear.
      
      Although the name says Rotax aircraft I see there are planes there with many
      other power plants... So no one is left out..
      
      As I said before Love 'em or not the name/URL "rotaxaircraft" is easy to
      remember.  
      
      As you know I love my little 'Fox but I'm also interested in fling wings (
      Gyros and Copters)  I see they have a new forum for those aircraft as well.
      That is one area I hope takes off as well as weight shift classification.
      Too bad I can't afford more toys :-(  I think an auto gyro is made for
      photography!
      
      I have started building a mold around my engine to extend the Townsend ring
      which is way too short to cover my new installation.  I'm building up the
      form with papier mache and will finish it off with a thin coat of
      Poly-Filler which I can wax well and glass the extention right on to the
      existing cowl pieces.  I'm thinking about glassing the upper and lower
      halves together as I can access the engine from the rear cowl easily and
      doing that will make installing some air baffles a little easier.  The down
      side is any time I want to remove it the prop will have to come off first.
      
      What's you take on this idea?
      
      Noel

      Mike, 
      I just checked Merle's website again.  No Virus warning this time, so
      apparently, the reload worked out well.

      I think a separate request is in order for Murle's URL.

      Murle's site doesn't have any Javascript to speak of, but I've 
      reloaded the entire site from secure backups anyway.

      I haven't had that quick a response but I imagine with all the 
      hackers in the world they are kept quite busy.  Thanks for the input, 
      John.

      Clem, the perspective in these photos make it look a little further forward than
      it actually is.  The top front edge of the stick handle is 1-1/2 inches directly
      below the trailing edge of the lower panel fuselage tube.  Classic 4 built
      by the book.

      Clem,- The-concern with oil line hose (912) is the vacuum side to retur
      n oil to the reservoir. The cloth type cover-Aeroquip FC332 cloth type co
      vering-is-made for both pressure and vacuum and is probably what you ha
      ve now. You can get this at racing shops or at local hose shops. You can al

      the MIL 6000- OIL- hose from Aircraft Spruce acceptable for use in the

      Dick=2C My plane had standard doors that I converted to the observation doo
      rs similar to yours. How do you like those doors? I had to redo mine anyway
       as I widened the cabin 4 1/2" after seeing Murle Williams widening kit. I 
      also redid the latches with a bar that latches front and rear. And I purcha
      sed the gas struts for the doors from KF.

       The light blue lines and the white stripes are all vinyl tape. It works ou
      t real well and is very easy to do. I will see if I have a before and after
       picture in my archives.
