Biplan53, unlike my building process, once I start flying and work through the

Ray, you are correct, 2 Eisemann AM-4s. I do intend to use a handheld radio. At
this time, I do not a handheld picked out, nor do I have a headset chosen. (I
am using a borrowed, David Clark, non-noise canceling deal for my current flight
training.)
How did you handle the shielding on the mag side? Did you just run the shields
to ground? My plan is to operate as is, however, if the noise is an issue, I'll
revisit my setup and come up with plan "B".
Thanks for the heads up Ray.

Mike Cuy, I've always liked your hangar setup and it looks even better with an
A-65 apart and you are ready to give it an overhaul! I had the most fun doing
mine and am sure you will to. Please keep us posted on what you find/how things
are going with it. I am very interested.
I would just say that this engine is heavier because you are 16 years older! Everything
seems heavier for me than it did 16 years ago...including myself.

Subject: | Re: Anyone build the single piece wing? |
I built a one piece wing and would never do it again. It took minimum of 2 but
I used 4 just to turn it over. It is not heavy but I was so careful not to damage
it. It was over kill having so much help but we got it assembled with zero
damage and had a good time doing it.
Just my 2 cents :-)

Subject: | Re: NX992WD "Finished" |
I have 2 Eisemann AM-4s on my C-85-12. I use a handheld and finally got
leather mic muff covers which were the biggest issue. Now intercom is
usable.
ATC & formation friends seem to hear me OK, I hear them. I am not sure,
but I assume the spark plug wires are shielded. I don't get spark plug
noise.

Mike, the tank is a fairly simple square box with an airfoil contoured top. Wanted
to use it as the top and avoid additional covering/paneling. Then pop rivets
and LOTS of Proseal!
Here are links to a couple pictures. LOTS more on Westcoastpiet.com

The cold fog thickened noticeably as the newcomer hurried towards his
destination. He pulled his heavy overcoat around his neck a little more
tightly. This part of the city was not a place to tarry. Thieves and
whores were the only permanent residents here. Even the cops rolled through
these streets with a nervousness and an edge to heir normal macho banter.
Trouble and misery closed around everyone who ventured into this pustule of
urban blight like a leech on a warm vein.
"Damn!", he hissed under his breath as he stepped on something soft that
squealed and skittered off into the darkness and dankness of the mist. It
can't be much farther he thought. It mustn't be much farther. The sickly
yellow flicker of light from a street lamp shone dimly through the fog as he
quickened his pace.
There it was. The doorway seemed to be just blackness without definition.
As he got closer, two winos eyed him suspiciously through bloodshot and
yellowed eyes. He hustled past them, their breath leaving a rank scent that
lingered on his clothes. The door pushed inward and the newcomer was
inside.
The room was smoky and dim. The bar stank of liquor and broken dreams.
Several tables decorated the periphery. The man he had come to see was
sitting at one of those tables and beckoned him over to sit. The man was
darkly clothed and utterly shapeless. He might have weighed three hundred
pounds... or he may have been only bone. His shape was indecipherable. The
dark mans eyes were gazing down at the dirty glass in his hand, half filled
with cheap whiskey. He had been reading a glossy magazine filled with lurid
and obscene images. He folded it tenderly and stuffed it quickly into his
coat pocket like a vulture gobbling a rotten piece of flesh.
"What is it you want of me?", the dark man asked, not lifting his eyes from
the glass. His voice rumbled deep in his belly like a toad.
"I need you to tell me how to unsubscribe", said the newcomer in as even a
tone as he could muster.
The dark man looked up from his glass slowly to gaze at the newcomer. His
eyes were a pale watery blue. And his gaze lingered on the newcomer.
"You wish to unsubscribe?", he said, with a hint of amusement in his voice
but no trace of a smile on his thick pasty lips. "You come to me with a
need to unsubscribe?", he said, his voice getting louder now and any hint of
amusement gone. He sucked in his breath and hissed through his teeth
spraying the newcomer with a repulsive mist of spittle, "Why? Tell me why
it is that you wish to unsubscribe."
The newcomer felt fear now creeping up his spine. "I don't have the time to
sort through all the posts", he mumbled.
The dark man sat unmoved, his eyes stared at the newcomer without emotion.
His eyes were cold and amphibian.
"And I sold the Pietenpol and bought a Husky", added the newcomer.
He realized in a heart beat that he should not have said that. The dark man
had him by the throat with a quickness that seemed otherworldly. And the
dark man squeezed that throat as the newcomer wriggled and squirmed in a
voiceless scream. The dark man pulled the newcomers face to his own until
they nearly touched noses. He breathed his fetid breath on the newcomer and
a trickle of drool escaped his mouth to plop loudly on the table between
them.
"Go!", he rumbled. "Go now you fool!", he bellowed. "Run if you can. It
shall do you no good! Once you have subscribed, all hope of ever
unsubscribing is gone! We will find you. Your email is now ours to
control. Your email box will fill to bursting with our messages. And there
is no hope for you. There is no good deed you can do to change what you
have done. The List will not be denied!"
And with that he released the newcomer who reeled and staggered towards the
door, gagging and stumbling. The dark man began to laugh, a low rumbling
laugh that grew louder. The newcomer fled up the streets as he had come
with the croaking bellowing laughter chasing him. He was doomed... and he
knew it.
The dark man sat back at the table in the dimly lit bar and sipped at his
drink.
"I guess I could have just told him to go to
http://www.matronics.com/subscribe/
and follow the directions to unsubscribe", he muttered under his breath.
No, he smiled to himself. That would have been all too easy. Still
chuckling to himself, he reached into his pocket and pulled out the magazine
he had been reading before the newcomer interrupted him. He quickly thumbed
through the slick and edge worn pages until he found his place. He never
missed a single word of each and every issue of Martha Stewart Living...

Some assumptions first:
1) top line is the top of the upper capstrip
2) bottom line (not the reference line) is the bottom of the lower capstrip
3) the top line is measured from the bottom line (not the reference line)
4) My measurements are correct
The drawing indicates that the trailing edge piece will be 1 1/4" wide starting
at a point where the inside edges of the capstrips meet.
My inside edges meet at a point where my trailing edge will have to be 1 3/4" wide
(half inch longer) to get me to a 60" chord.
Has anyone else come across this and if so, what did you do?
In the photo, the last line to the right is 60 1/8" from the forward reference
line. Measurements add up to 1/8" too much (big deal, right?). The line just left
of it is 60". That hash mark area is where I expected the inside edges to
meet (based on plans).
Thank you

Subject: | Re: NX992WD "Finished" |
Mike,
I received a lot of good advise from Oscar Zuniga's A&P friend concerning th
is problem. If I find the letter, will forward it to you. I was hoping you h
ad the magical solution.
I put woven mesh shielding over my ignition wires and grounded the shielding
to the magneto. I used the old time, non-shielded plugs, this did not work.
Then I ordered shielded wires from ACS to fit the A-65 and used shielded pl
ugs, this did not work. Then I put condensers on the P leads (ACS noise supp
ressing condensers), this did not work. Then I shielded the P leads all the w
ay from the ignition switch to the magnetos, this did not help. Right now I h
ave the ACS ignition wires, shielded plugs, shielded P leads to the switch (
grounded on the magneto end) and the condensers. No joy!
Oscar's friend said that the Eismann AM-4's have a plastic (Bakelite?) distr
ibutor cap on the rear that is not shielded and this is where the noise is m
ost likely coming from. He suggested making a "shield" out of metallic (copp
er) screen formed to the shape of the distributor cap, place it over the cap
s and ground it. I will try that someday, maybe this winter when things slow
down. The A&P says the Eisemann mags are great and run forever, very reliab
le, but not shielded and thus noisy (they have an AD on them that should be d
one). Slick mags are shielded, expensive and are not as reliable (500 hr ove
rhaul?). Of course, I may not live long enough to put 500 hrs on SkyScout!
The ACS shielded wires come with the connectors for the shielded plugs on on
e end. The wires are silicone rubber covered and the inner core appears to b
e carbon within a clear tube. About 6" of this tube, without the silicone co
ver, sticks out the magneto end of the wire and has a clip to plug into the m
agneto. I don't understand how the shield is grounded, only on the spark plu
g end?
This is a work in progress with no solution, yet. If you find the solution, p
lease let me know. All of this experimenting has been done on my 1946 restor
ed Aeronca 7AC. It has the exact setup that I have for SkyScout...whenever i
t flies!
If you figure it out, let me know. I hate to buy 4 new Slick mags, wires and
plugs just to be able to use a radio!

Could you describe your setup in more detail? You may have the silver bulle
t that we need! I do not have wind noise in the Aeronca, it is the clicking n
oise from the mags. It is even heard on a hand held radio 20' from the plane
!
Thanks,

Mike,
Here is some of the info from Oscars friend, Jeff...
More from Jeff... and by the way, I seem to remember that my airplane has ei
ther 12 or 12-1/2 degrees of angle when sitting on the ground, and I don't h
ave any problems with it. Don't go changing anything drastic with your land
ing gear geometry just yet.
-Oscar
HI Oscar,
Yep. If I remember correctly (it is possible that I may not), the distribut
or cap on the AM series Eisemans are Bakelite, so offer no RF shielding what
-so-ever. I suppose one could fashion a Faraday Cage over them, but I real
ly don't have any feel at all for the density of the wire mesh to get any ef
fectiveness from them.
[couldn't get the diagrams to attach, but you'll get the idea]
Below is a side-by-side cutaway of the LA-4 model on the left and the AM-4 m
odel on the right. Note that the coil lead (#12 on the right picture) is ca
st into the cap with no shielding. That is likely the source of most of the
noise, although the spark jumping from the distributor gear is also going t
o generate a lot of noise as well.
I would also hate to give up the Eisemann mags. They work reliably and are e
asy to repair. Effectively, they are a forever magneto. Not so much on the
Slicks. With Slicks you do a 500 hour inspection, then throw them away at 1
000 hours or when they fail, whichever comes first.
Since Ray apparently doesn't mind experimenting a bit, you might suggest he t
ry using wire mesh to construct a grounded cage over each of the magnetos. I
t might work. Or it might not. But an afternoon with the snips and a littl
e bit of screen wire is a darned sight less expensive than a new set of mags
. Any conductive wire mesh should do. The finer the mesh, the better. I w
ould try window screening.
Best regards,
-Jeff
