I will have a baggage compartment in my center wing with a piano hinge

compartment mounted the hinge, to what, and what (if any) fill
material to keep water from leaking:
-- under screws into wooden parts;
-- through the hinge and into the compartment?
In the same vein, what prevents water damage, seeping into screw holes
in the wood under the aileron hinges?

Tim, mine isn't flying yet so no real world experience with how well
this works. What I did was to dab spar varnish into and around all of
the holes where I attached the piano hinge to the flop section. I
know some fellas prefer to use eye liner brushes. I used q-tips.

I'm working on sealing up my fuel system. I have a few slow leaks from my
gascolator. ACS has EZTurn Lubricant, but I've found a local source for
another fuel system sealant
http://www.gsasupplyco.com/gaethse.html
Can anyone tell me If this would be safe to use? The world of sealants and
adhesives is strange to me. I can't seem to pin down equivalents. It
seems like a world of "gray stuff in tube, blue stuff in can"
Thanks for your help.

Andrew the website specs look good. I use LocTite 567. It is pricey but I have

stuff is better. I have no idea about that.

Dip all screws in varnish right before you use them, screw them wet in to t
he wood.
This will avoid to some extend moisture getting in to the wood.
Second varnish/ paint over the screw, seal it
Thirdly, make sure water can drain out of any and all compartments !
your weight and balance will change with water collecting in low spots
If your park your plane outside use cockpit covers.
Lastly don't fly in the rain

Tim, where is all this water coming from? Certainly you're not going to fly
your Piet in the rain. If you tie it down outside (like I might have to for
a while until I can get hanger space) cover everything up with plastic
tarps.

Michael, that expensive overhaul manual you bought should have a Table of
Limits in it. You'll find the information you need there.
>From looking at mine, I find that the pushrods (new) should have a length of
10.797" to 10.827". The serviceable limit length is 10.785"
To determine if you need the oversize pushrods, you will have to have the
engine assembled, and measure the clearance between the valve stem and the
rocker arm, with the hydraulic lifter fully deflated. The clearance is
supposed to be between 0.030" and 0.110". If your clearance is more than
0.110" you will need the longer pushrod.

Scott -
What airfoil section does your Air Camper use?
I'm having a hard time envisioning that center section matching up smoothly with
wings having any of the usual suspects, namely, Pietenpol FC-10, Clark Y, USA
35B, USA 27, NACA 4412, NACA 2412, Riblett 612, and Riblett 613.5.
Incidentally, y'all can find find plots of a great many airfoil sections (though not the FC-10 nor any Riblett sections) here: http://www.ae.illinois.edu/m-selig/ads/coord_database.html
And find out which airplanes use which sections (including the FC-10 and various Riblett sections) here: http://www.public.iastate.edu/~akmitra/aero361/design_web/airfoil_usage.htm

Hello Bill,
Actually I used cub wings built from the REED Clipped Wing plans. Wood Spars and
aluminum ribs and Piet style tips. I have a 27' span. The center center section
is all wood and I have used foam and cloth to fare-in and shape the cut
out above the pilot seat. I also have a Cessna 140 wing tank in the center section
for fuel. The nose tank is from an Opal Cadet car and it holds 10 gallons.
That gives me 22.5 Gallons usable.

Say it ain't so, with that anteater nose and peculiarly enclosed cockpit. My first

Well, that's sad, even if the appearance was pretty far removed from the classic
Model A powered Air Camper.

That's odd.
The Piper Cub reportedly started with a standard USA 35B airfoil, but the airfoil
was later modified - in 1943 according to some sources, but my March, 1941
Aero Digest Annual Digest states "USA 35B modified airfoil section."
At any rate, the modification was apparently only to the upper surface, slightly
raising the contour so the peak is at 9.36% of chord above the chord line rather
than 9%. Here's a drawing of the modified airfoil (the dimensions are in
inches rather than percentages of chord):
http://www.supercubproject.com/drawings/pdfs/A3310184.pdf
The characteristic undercamber of the original USA 35B is still there. It's not
much, but I thought it would show up more clearly in those gorgeous pictures
you posted. Even when I hold a straight edge up to the screen I can't really make
out any deviation along the rib bottoms in that last picture.

Gene,
I have worked on and flown Continental A-65 engines for over 60 years
and they ALL had "Zero Lash" hydraulic lifters. Jack's information is
correct.
Cheers,

Scott,
I just looked at your pictures and did not see the door you installed on the left
side, front seat. Did you install it later, or am I just missing it?
If you have any better pictures of the door from your 200 rebuild, it would be
greatly appreciated.

Wrong. The A65 most definitely does have hydraulic lifters.

mechanical, so your plan does not work.

Michael, that expensive overhaul manual you bought should have a Table of
Limits in it. You'll find the information you need there.
>From looking at mine, I find that the pushrods (new) should have a length of
10.797" to 10.827". The serviceable limit length is 10.785"
To determine if you need the oversize pushrods, you will have to have the
engine assembled, and measure the clearance between the valve stem and the
rocker arm, with the hydraulic lifter fully deflated. The clearance is
supposed to be between 0.030" and 0.110". If your clearance is more than
0.110" you will need the longer pushrod.
