It doesnt mention the extra glass on the underside of each wing near the wing root,
over the seam between the two wing skins [well, for the XP at least].
And I think one of the other LAA notes refers to the blue foam ribs and their propensity
to dissolve in contact with fuel or even fuel vapour.

I used stainless steel (0.015" min thickness), or we could use a product
called "fiberfrax" at 3mm thick with a covering sheet of aluminium.

I found details of the lower wooden wing skin modification in the Aero Designs
newsletter 'bulletins', and version 5 of the UK LAA Pulsar acceptance document
TAD 202 has details of the foam ribs melting due to fuel vapour. I think all
AD and SkyStar newsletters are available in the Yahoo group file area.
I have the TAD 202 document and it is also available if you Google UK LAA Pulsar
if anyone needs it.
Regards,
Matt.

| Subject: | Re: 912 voltage regulator |
I used the voltage-regulator Deere-AM101406.
It has 5 terminals (the old one had 6):
B+ (battery), AC, AC (both to generator), L, (not used, probably for an
indicator light), IGW (ignition). The body is grounded. The terminals are
the same style as for the old one, it plugs right in. The voltage is on the
average 1V higher (14V) than with the old one (13V). It fluctuates +-0.5V.
I can turn everything on without having the voltage drop below 13V (at
cruise rpm). That was not the case with the old one.
I bought it from Crank-n-Charge (1-800 272 8755) in GA for $66.94. Their
part number for it is AVMC-1013.
