Good luck guys!

Speaking of hex head screws......has anyone sourced out 8/32 countersunk
Robertson drive screws yet?
 Phillips screws suck!

I bought my leg fairings and wheel pants from a guy in 
florida several years ago.  He seems to be out of business 
now.  He only supplied the leg fairings and wheel pants. 
 Does anyone know of a place that would have the fairings 
that go at the top of the leg fairings at the cowling and 
also the same at the bottom of the legs to the wheel 
pants?
Thanks.

You really haven't missed anything.  Some people did a lousy job of building their
tanks, a lousy job of flying by not switching tanks when the engine quit because
their fuel pickup came loose, and Van put out a Service Bulletin that all
tanks have to be taken apart and the fuel pickup inspected and safety wired
- the SB is on Van's website.  Just do a good job of building your tanks, make
sure all is tight before you close your tanks and you won't have to worry. 
As for safety wiring the nut I think that is ludicrous given all the similar nuts
in all the systems that AREN'T safetied.  And by the way - I talked to Dick
VanGrunsven at breakfast last Saturday and he said it is not a mandatory SB
- no such thing exists for experimental airplanes.

Massey Aircraft has the uppers but they don't show the lowers on the web 
site.
After spending many hours trying to make the Team Rocket fairings work (no 
longer available), I recommend you do them from scratch.  Everyone I have 
spoken to said it is no big deal.  Go for it.
