    Subject: FW: Your my guinea pig and you didn't even know it.
    I feel really bad it took me so long to figure out my problems with uploading to the web host servers. Every time I would make a change it would take over 24 hrs to upload with my computer crashing multiple times along the way. Couple that with the technology changed and I just didn't want to learn how to code HTML websites. All I can say now is thank goodness for simple FTP file transfer software and to some new web page software I am able to once again upload to the host servers. Sorry again to all the people who have sent pictures or tried to view new ones while I procrastinated, mostly by building an airplane, to fix my issues. I'll be adding some pictures ever now and then as I dig my out of the hole and try to work on the plane too.

    From: Rick <lmforge@earthlink.net>
    Oscar, the port allows me access to the fuel shut off valve as well as the front rudder pedals. The access hole is covered with a wood plug that exactly fits the opening. The plug in turn is attached to a metal plate the bolts to the firewall. The cover is easy to remove and once installed is invisible from inside the cockpit. I resisted doing this for some time as I was concerned about the appearance, but I was more concerned about access to the fuel valve on my front tank. After Kevin Purtee's incident, my friend Jim Hacklin decided he needed to pull his front fuel tank on his nearly completed Piet in order to install a better sump. Since he didn't have a firewall access port, and couldn't reach the fuel line disconnect from outside the cockpit, he had to crawl inside. If you can imagine crawling inside the front pit, rolling on your back on the skinny front seat with your legs hanging over the side. Once the tank was free, he had to then extracate himself. No one was home, he couldn't reach his cell phone, but he had to get out or die. He said the longer he waited the worse it was getting, so he had to get out one way or another. He obviously got out to tell the tale, but that convinced me to add the access port.

It was not much of a problem too crawl underneath and reach up to the valve. It was an entirely different story when the fuselage was on its gear. Before I installed the firewall I tried to reach forward to touch the fuel line attachment and the valve while standing on a ladder along side the fuselage. I quickly realized that this wasn't going to work, my arms weren't long enough. I remember seeing a photo that Walt Evans had posted sometime ago of his firewall with the access port, so I always had this idea in the back of my mind. Being a woodworker, I had some homemade thin chisels made from hacksaw blades. I used these to carefully cut out the access hole. The wood cover is actually the same piece I cut out with the same grain orientation. There really is no kerf cut so the fit was so tight I had to sand slightly to allow for the varnish and wood expansion. As I said the plug is barely visible from inside the cockpit except for the small nutplates that secure the cover. Rick Schreiber Valparaiso, IN

    I found the hole on the floor of the front seat up next to the firewall very helpful. Was able to sit underneath the airplane and get my hands on both sides of the firewall with minimal trouble. I will do the same thing on the rebuild. Same function as Rick's, just a different location. -------- Kevin &quot;Axel&quot; Purtee Rebuilding NX899KP Austin/San Marcos, TX Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=395406#395406

    I have never been to Brodhead, but I attended the west coast gathering 2 summers ago when I was working in California temporarily. They are a fantastic bunch of folks and you will make some great friends. For those friends of mine, I have parts cut out for 15 ribs so far and waiting on a delivery of T88 to get started. The cadets in Civil air patrol are wanting to get the chance to help assemble a few pieces. Kelly Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=395419#395419

    Picture is worth a thousand words, I guess. Here's a pic showing my vertical stabilizer offset (about 1/2") and another showing the washers on the top two engine mount points. This doesn't say much because everybody seems to be making their mounts differently, but the point is that downthrust and offset to the right really helped Scout get to a nearly hands- and feet-off cruise trim condition. -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC &quot;Scout&quot; A75 power Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=395457#395457 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_1850_150.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_1848_571.jpg

    Gary, that video got me excited enough to finally figure out how to watch yo u tube videos on my TV. Then it was on to watching Dan flying out of Poplar G rove. The rest of the evening has been spent watching You Tube videos of Bro dhead. Lots of fun and good memories.

    Subject: Eliminating Prop Artifact in videos
    From: "jarheadpilot82" <jarheadpilot82@hotmail.com>
    Since so many videos have been posted over the past week I did a little internet searching to see what options there for reducing the prop artifact in videos. Here is one man's solution that seems to work pretty well. http://vimeo.com/22302989 Just thought I would pass it along. -------- Semper Fi, Terry Hand Athens, GA Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=395473#395473

    Subject: Re: first airplane ride
    From: "regchief" <kbosley@comcast.net>
    and that is what it's all about!! The reason I am passionate about working with cadets in Civil air patrol is because I am afraid this generation of young people is going to start believing that Nintendo is the real thing. Every time I see one of our cadets get there first ride in a glider or powered airplane, there face tells the whole story. This was a great video, thanks Oscar Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=395475#395475
