I just purchased the Anywhere Map software and now need to buy an Ipaq to

Have any Listers used the 3955 with the Anywhere Map? Are there any

As a participant in the second annual S-N-F RV Fly-In, I would like to
second Bernie's appraisal of the event, and express my appreciation to
those who made the fly-in possible. A flight of three RVs made the trek
from north Alabama to LAL, and the visit was very enjoyable. I am glad
to hear that next year's event will be Saturday-Sunday (thanks, Bernie,
for tolerating my arm-twisting!) since several more of the Tennessee
Valley RV Builders Group planes would have made the trip if a Saturday
morning launch had been practical.
Put this event on your calendar! I think it is going to be a major
fixture on the RV calendar for years to come.

Hi Norm,
The story I heard was: Van bought a Stits Playmate and was a
little disapointed in it's performance. So he built a new wing
system of sticks and rags, like the fuse, and that was the RV1.
He still wasn't satisfied so he built a new wing system out of
metal and that was the RV2. And, as you know,
one thing leads to another.

This is very timely as I have just finished the first installation and
rigging of the electric flaps on my RV-4. They extend to 50 degrees in the
full down condition. I talked to Van about this and it must be corrected.
What must be done is that the hole on the EF-401 must be moved closer to
it's pivot point to reduce the throw of the flaps. Once this is done, then
the up position is rigged by varying the length of the pushrods going to the
flaps.
If you have any problems, let me know off list.

| Subject: | Re: Tubing spacers or washers between elevator control horns? |
(and engine mount spacers)
--> RV-List message posted by: "Dan Checkoway" <dan@rvproject.com>
Just FYI, I spoke to Bruce at Van's a few minutes ago and he said that
washers or tubing are equally acceptable. He did mention that tubing might
be a little easier to deal with than washers since access back there is
somewhat restricted...although on his RV-6 he only had an inspection hole on
one side, and the RV-7 has bigger/dual inspection holes.
While I was on the phone, I also asked about what type of spacer would be
acceptable to use on the engine mount. On mine the four corners bolted up
nice and flush, but I've got about 3/32" space behind the two inner/lower
mount points. Bruce said that I could just fabricate large area washers out
of aluminum sheet...sandwiching a combination of thicknesses as required.
Figured I'd toss this info out there while we're on the topic of spacers.
Have fun,

Dan,
A little trick....
A little CA (superglue) works great to stick the washers together
instead of making 3/16 (or whatever multiple of washers) long tube
spacers
Another trick for making tube spacers. Rough cut to size on a band
saw, chuck it up in the drill. Run the drill while putting the tube
end against a belt sander. Cleans up the ends awesome.
There's my good deed for the day for the current batch of builders...

Why would you want to bother with that when the Garmin device already has it's
own

Ooooh. I can see the sick bags coming out now, as your passenger is flying
an Extra 300 through an aerobatic routine on FlightSim while you're trying
to fly IFR through cloud. Just don't mix up his artificial horizon with
yours... 8-P

Because I might be flying rather than driving? :-) Okay, no for the
serious answer: The mapping software that's on the IQue seems to be
ground-based. Lots of streets and rivers, little in the way of airports.
Unless I read the website wrong.

Randy, check in with Mike Robertson (if he's back from vacation). I spoke
with him at length about my upcoming engine conversion and putting the
plane back into phase 1. Unfortunately I can't find my notes. He was very
specific about what goes in which log books including signing it as a
mechanic, then later as the test pilot.
The 5 hours is your call based on what you find during your test
flights. This isn't exactly an unknown prop, only unknown on your airframe.
I don't recall the log entries you describe in #2 above.

So Brad, lets say I have an RV-4, a Palm V, and a Magellan GPS 315A... what
does purchasing your software do for me and more importantly, do I have to
buy anything else (because your price {$39.95} sounds reasonable)?

Hi Mike,
Mike won't be back until the end of the month or I would have just called
him. Wentz was the one who thinks you're supposed to log (in the airframe
log) each flight during the test period but I've never heard of it before. I
just thought I'd ask the group just in case.
With Kevin going in for surgery on the 24th are you doing the Feb

The fed (not a DAR) that came down to perform the airworthiness inspection
on my plane gave me what he called a friendly little bit of advice: Do not
put anything into the aircraft log book other than condition inspection
reports that read the airplane is in airworthy condition. If I found
something wrong he suggested I just correct it and then note the airplane
has passed it's condition inspection when I was done. This was in answer to
a direct question regarding major changes or alterations to the airframe.

Randy, check in with Mike Robertson (if he's back from vacation). I spoke
with him at length about my upcoming engine conversion and putting the
plane back into phase 1. Unfortunately I can't find my notes. He was very
specific about what goes in which log books including signing it as a
mechanic, then later as the test pilot.
The 5 hours is your call based on what you find during your test
flights. This isn't exactly an unknown prop, only unknown on your airframe.
I don't recall the log entries you describe in #2 above.

Scott,
I just went through this on my Cherokee, the difference in the rebuild kit
and a new mag was within $100. I ended up just getting two mags and
harnesses from Chief for ~$950 after the core return.

I am in the process of putting wheelpants and fairings on my flying 8A. My
question is how are you guys handling access on the nose wheelpant for air.
You already have to drill a hole for access to the pass through bolt and nut.
Then another set of holes for the tow bar.
Another hole for air?????

I to purchased a used Christian Inverted oil setup. You can replace the
o-rings and reuild the system but you will have to buy the plug/screen and
fitting from Aviat Arcraft......I caution you they are a little pricey for
what you get.

Exactly correct. The deal is however you can put a cover over the axel bolt
holes (Home Depot SS pipe end finger fitting), a spring loaded door on the
air hole (ACS part), leave the tow bar holes open. Side note - I made a tow
bar from a 10' piece of 1/2" copper water pipe. The double female fitting
is exactly the right size to fit over the tow bar bolts. A spring between
the two tow bar arms provides the tension.

| Subject: | Keep the HS/VS attached? |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Dan Checkoway" <dan@rvproject.com>
Can anybody think of a reason to keep the tail surfaces attached to the
fuselage after they're first installed and the control surfaces & stops are
rigged? I'd like to take my HS & VS off the fuselage to make more space but
I'm curious if having 'em attached will be helpful down the line at some
point prior to final assembly. Seems that now that everything is drilled
for good it would only take a few minutes to reattach them later if I need
to.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance,

I pulled mine off. They simply took up room I needed in the shop. However,
before you take 'em off, make sure you've completed EVERYTHING in the tail
section.
One of my mistakes was leaving numerous small tasks to be completed during
final assembly at the airport. I promise you, things slow down by a factor
of 3 when you take the airplane to the airport. The tool you need is at
home, as is your pile of scrap aluminum to make that bracket you need, and
the bathroom is probably a long walk too. Do everything you can in the
relative comfort and convenience of your own shop.

I had mine on and off several times before final assembly.
The HS is too long to transport down the road , if you have to haul it to an
airport

Yes. FWIW, Cleaveland sells small "caps" that will plug the holes when they
are not in use (three holes . . . one for the nose and one for each of the
main gear wheels). And, more importantly, they sell a "straight" adaptor so
that you can access the valve stems through the holes. Good luck,

Gee Dan- I've taken every single piece of the airplane off/on/off/on
off/on/off/on/off...(ad nauseum............) so many times I'm afraid
the clecos are wearing out the holes- put them puppies away till ya need
'em fer good!
From The PossumWorks in TN (my trailer looks like a RV parts junkyard
if you don't mind diggin' through all the beer cans! Oh yeah- tail
surfaces make great trailer skirts!!! ..or mount the H. Stab on the
trunk of ol' Gen'ral Lee for great air-o-dy-namics!!! Blows 'em away
down at the A&W!)
Mark DEFINATELY do not archive 8-) and fer sure don't ferget to put
ALL THE PARTS BACK ON IN FINAL ASSEMBLY & HAVE THREE OTHER RV DUDES
CHECK IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| Subject: | Sliding Canopy Lock |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Albert Gardner" <albert.gardner@worldnet.att.net>
I discovered a rather simple canopy lock setup that looks like it might do
the job. If you bought the keyed mag/starter switch from Vans, it came with
2 tumbler locks with a flat arm that swung 90 degrees to lock/unlock. All 3
use the same key which is really nice. I installed the tumbler locks in the
Canopy Skirt so that it protruded into one of the large holes in C-791
(Canopy Skirt Brace). You have to enlarge the hole in the Skirt Brace and be
careful that there is room to install the hex nut on the lock tumbler
without it interfering with the Canopy Frame. I cut a slot in the Canopy
Roller Track for the flat arm to swing down into and lock the canopy in the
closed position. The lock tumbler just barely clears the Skirt Brace and
looks pretty clean without sticking out into the cabin very far. Much less
elaborate than pushing a pin up into the Roller Track from below. I put this
in after the canopy was finished but I wish the idea had occurred when I
was building it as it would have been easier.
