Hi Listers,
Each year at the end of the List Fund Raiser, I post a message
acknowledging everyone that so generously made a Contribution to
support the Lists. Its sort of my way of publicly thanking everyone
that took a minute to show their appreciation for the Lists.
Won't you take a moment and assure that your name is on that List of
Contributors (LOC)? As a number of members have pointed out over the
years, the List seems at least - if not a whole lot more - valuable
as a building/flying/recreating/entertainment tool as your typical
magazine subscription!
Please take minute and assure that your name is on this year's
LOC? Show others that you appreciate the Lists. Making a
Contribution to support the Lists is fast and easy using your Credit
card or Paypal on the Secure Web Site:
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
or by popping a personal check in the mail to:

I would like to thank everyone that has so generously made a
Contribution thus far in this year's List Fund Raiser! Remember that

forget to include a little comment about how the Lists have helped you!
Best regards,

Does anyone have any leads on a flying RV-4 for sale ??
My priority list is this:
1) highest quality
2) simple
O-320 with fixed-pitch and VFR; will consider
bigger/more complex O-360, C/S, IFR
3) reasonably priced
4) tasteful paint
My wife wants to fly now and she's ready for a -4; and
this would bring me current for the Rocket when it's
time (shooting for 2006). Please email me off list or
feel free to call me at my office PST.

I am also getting to the stage where the axels become necessary - I have the Cleavland
wheels from John also - I see Larry got his from ACS - are the 2024T3
aluminum ones adequate(pn11701)? I also have heard through the grapevine that
steel axels from a Cessna 172 would work and be much tougher. Which are the
recommended ones?
One other thing that was talked about briefly was the engine mount ears - I have
a 540 AID5 that I am converting to a IO C4B5 and the mounting ear holes are
approx. 1.37" (1 3/8). Does anyone know if these are the larger or smaller holes?
Thanks

For what it's worth two of us here have used the aluminum axles and have
over 300 hours between us. They are fine but if you are concerned get the
steel ones - it's peace of mind for you. The 1.38" holes are the small
ones. Ask your engine shop for the large ones. I bought my eingine at
0SMOH from Dick Waters and he sent me the large hole mounts for $50 each and
shipping. Call him if nothing else. You can find his ads in Barnstormers -
I don't have a current number for him..It's called Air Tech (sp?).

Does anyone know if John Harmon produced plans for his original Rocket? I am thinking
of building an RV3 and I'd like to use that design for the aesthetics
(I'm going light weight and low power - O 235 probably).
If I can find the right plane however I might buy a flying -3.

Jim,
I am flying a rocket one and building an F-1. The person who owns the rocket 1
doesn't fly anymore and is looking to sell it. I don't have the details here,
but If you are interested, I can forward them to you tomorrow.
