I'll check them out, and look forward to having the ability to get instruction in the machine :) Andrew ________________________________ From: owner-rocket-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rocket-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of winingsj@aol.com Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 3:16 PM Subject: Re: Rocket-List: Rocket rear rudder pedals//reminder that we're down here in New Zealand! Airkit LLC has rear rudder pedals for sale. They are the same design as mine and I think they are really good. They fold down out of the way when not in use. For more information, contact AirkitLLC@yahoo.com or you can call me at 317-718-3415. Jim Winings -----Original Message----- From: ACTIVE NZ - Andrew Sent: Tue, 27 May 2008 7:35 pm Subject: Rocket-List: Rocket rear rudder pedals//reminder that we're down here in New Zealand! Hi guys. As a long list time lurker from New Zealand... I'm really keen on getting some rear rudder pedals in my Rocket, as my main instructor won't fly with me without them. I apologise if this question has been asked before - anyone know the simplest/easiest (but robust) way to retrofit??? I saw a really nice set on a Rocket in a tiny place in the Sierras, just north of Lake Tahoe, and got the gentleman's contact details, but then stupidly mislaid them. I'll drop in next time I'm fling around the US, unless anyone knows the name of the guy who lives with his Rocket and pilot-wife in a tiny town northwest of Reno by, I'm not sure, maybe 100 miles? I seem to recall he's very close to Sierra Springs. He had a VERY elegant set of pedals, and I'd love to copy them - or see if anyone here has any good suggestions/diagrams/photos. Also, Rocketeers, just repeating my invitation, made a couple of years ago, to some of the coolest flying in the world, down here in New Zealand. I live in Queenstown, which is a must-stop on any NZ vacation anyway. I fly my Rocket off a little farm strip, but we are right next to the Southern Alps, which means some stunning scenery. All Rocketeers are welcome, should you ever be on vacation in NZ - we have a spare room, an HRII, and....well what else couldja need? :) I gather New Zealand's second Rocket has just been built. Our first indigenous one, I guess. Mine came from Carl Wright in Camarillo, and is a very well built aircraft. I've put 500 hours on it since then. And we have another Rocket just being started in a small town in Southland, called Gore. I talked to the builder, and it sounds like he may have run into one or two of the people on this list on a recent reserach trip to the US. He's a very nice guy - John Bowles, I think, is his name - and is well worth helping out. He's already built an RV4, so this isn't his first foray into homebuilding. I'm sure he'll build it well...
