Congratulations John, I'll bet it was a thrill. But you left out: How
high? How fast? How good were the landings? How many rolls? How did you
sleep the next night? Glad to have you in the sky, Les Do Not Archive!

--> Rocket-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com>
Dear Listers,
I'm very proud to announce a completely new BBS interface is now available for
all of the Email Lists at Matronics! This is a full-featured system that allows
for viewing, posting, attachments, polls - the works.
But the best part is that it is *completely* integrated with all of the existing
email tools currently available at Matronics! What this means at the most basic
level is that, if you post a message to List from Email in the traditional
way, it will show up on the BBS system *and* get distributed to everyone currently
subscribed to the Email List. By the same token, if you are on the BBS
and post a message to a given List-Forum, the message will not only show up on
the BBS, but also be distributed to everyone on the Email List!!
It is really a very nice implementation and I am very pleased with its operation.
All of the tools you have come to know and love such as the List Search Engine
and List Browse and Download will still be available and contain all of the
latest posts. Think of the new BBS interface as just another method of accessing
the all of the Lists.
You can use the BBS to view all of the latest posts without having to do anything
except use your browser to surf over to the site. You can view and look at
all of the various List's posts. If you want to post a new message or reply
to an existing message from the BBS, you will have to Register on the BBS. This
is a *very* simple process and will only take a couple of minutes. There is
a small icon in the upper righthand side of the main BBS page labeled "Register"
to get you started.
I strongly recommend that you use the exact *same* email address you are subscribed
to the Email Lists with when registering on the BBS. Also, while not an
absolute requirement, I would really appreciate it if people would use their full
name when choosing their Username on the BBS (for example "Matt Dralle").
This just makes it easier for everyone to know who's posting. Also, I have enabled
the ability to upload a small user picture with your profile called an
"avatar". Please use a *real* picture of yourself *with* your cloths on! Thank
you! Maximum size of the bitmap is 120x120.
You can either be subscribed to the BBS, or any number of Email Lists, or both.
Registering on the BBS will allow you to email directly to all of the various
Lists. However, to receive direct List Email, you will need to be *subscribed*
to the various Lists as you have in the past. No changes here in operation.
I have added numerous links on the BBS pointing to the Email List subscription
page.
I've had the BBS connected to the Lists for about a week now, so its already loaded
up with a fair number of messages. You can post photos and other documents
directly to the BBS and links to them will appear in the List Email distributions.
Also, when any messages posted to the BBS are viewed in the List Email
distribution, there will be a URL link at the bottom of the message pointing
back to the BBS.
And here's what you've been waiting for -- the main URL for the new Matronics Email
List BBS is:
http://forums.matronics.com
Please surf on over, Register, and have a great time! I think this will be the
dawn of a whole new era for the Lists at Matronics!
Best regards,
Matt Dralle

Hey ... we are like aeronautical voyeurs... and I thought you guys were
jaded to all this excitement and I was on a purely solo experience.
Weather at CNO was perfect Fri, Sat, Sun for all the flights. Ground
handling was real civilized on T/O and landing. I did wheelies for
landings...guess I have 5 total, each was a squeaker. Second cycle is on tape
since I
mounted a video bullet camera on the back cabin bulkhead. Tapes came out nice.
I
did a quick return as I started believing the JPI Analyzer that I had a
cylinder above 1000 degrees CHT. Actually we had the EGT and CHT leads crossed
so
was an easy fix later. Should have read the book to decode BD PRB as "bad
probe"... it was telling me the right thing during runup. Never noticed on
1st 20 minute flight but started looking around more later.
Got 3 hours plus in three-days. No acro. Max 205mph at 2500'. Stayed in
the racetracks either north or south of Chino. Squawks are: leaky governor,
sticky throttle, no alt squawk. Have sent the Bendix servo and governor to
respective shops, will fly again next month after return from Korea.
And wow... no one can describe the experience (getting-it-built,
making-1st-flight)... must be done to be believed ! Very satisfying !
Will edit the video while on station in Korea ... and then try to figure out
how to make it available if anyone wants to see.
Thrilled, and sleepy now.... John Meyers
