Listers,
I am going to mount a GPS antenna under the cowl onto a small shelf fastened to
the firewall. I do not have a GPS as yet. I need to know the dimensions of
your average panel mount GPS antenna in height, length and width to insure that
the shelf is fabricated to an acceptable size. Thanks in advance for any suggestions
as to the proper surface area of a generic GPS antenna shelf mounted
under the cowl.

they'd give it a try cause it is there.
Why would Microsoft make such a option and keep it functioning after knowing

Hi Rick,
My UPSAT GX65 came with an A-33 antenna. Here is a link to the
antenna installation manual with a good drawing of the dimensions and
hole pattern.

Subject: | Great Product for Clamping Top Skin |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Ken Brooks" <kenbrooks@charter.net>
I found an inexpensive, very effective product if you are drilling your
top skin. It's a Pony brand band clamp from Menards (or others) that
has a 15' orange nylon band and a black ratchet mechanism. The strap is
wrapped around the entire fuselage and a piece of cardboard was taped to
the side skin where the ratchet sits. Costs $9.50 and after using it,
we couldn't believe how smooth and straight our skin turned out. They
cinch down nice and tight along the rivet lines. We left just enough
room next to the band for the cleco. I bought two, one for the
instrument panel line and one for the middle row. For the firewall, it
was easy enough just to use rubber-tipped lever lock clamps since you
can see everything nicely lined up. It's the right tool for the job!

Doug,
Does the Dynon replace your DG? And it so, does it have a heading bug to
drive a heading hold on your autopilot? I've been thinking about this Dynon
unit myself for IFR but would only find it feasible if I could replace
Vacuum AI and DG with it and then have the other 4std instruments (electric
TC, Airspeed, Alt, and VSI) for failure backup.
Do you use a TC or does your Navaid replace that sufficiently to be a backup
for bank?
Thanks,
-Will Allen

Subject: RV-List: Dynon IFR
--> RV-List message posted by: "Doug Rozendaal" <dougr@petroblend.com>
I now have about 16 hours on my Dynon and flew my first IFR with it this
weekend. I was going to Minot AFB this weekend for Northern Neighbors Day
(airshow) and Friday morning the Metar was 1/2 mile Vis and clear. The
perfect day for a first IFR trip because the haze went all the way to 8000
ft, you could see the ground, barely, but absolutely no horizon. I took off
and hand flew the airplane for sometime and then turned on the Navaid.
Aside from my previous concern about the Dynon sucking you into the cockpit,
I now have another concern, The display is so precise, that I fear I will
become an EFIS cripple. Meaning I may not be able to fly steam gauges
anymore. I can so accurately keep the wings level, the heading almost never
wanders. Same true with pitch, The VSI behaves more like an IVSI and you
can find a pitch that will yield a certain rate of climb or decent and hold
that pitch perfectly and the Rate of climb (or decent) never wanders. What
a device.
By the time I got into ND the haze was burning off, and I started to notice
the device was indicating a slight ~3 deg roll to the left. I centered the
ball and checked my wingtips with the horizon and no doubt about it, it was
indicating a slight bank. I thought, well here we go, this thing won't hold
a calibration...... I tried slipping for a while and see if I could have
any effect on it, but when I centered up, it was still off about 3 deg. I
was not too concerned, I used to fly a 402 frieghter that had a horizon that
was off, about the same and I flew it that way for several years. I was the
airboss for the airshow, so I had bigger fish to fry and did not worry about
it. On Sunday, I hung around Minot with Warren Pietsch and we swapped
airplanes, and I flew his 180 hp clipped wing Taylorcraft. What a hoot!!!
He flew the RV and he really liked it as well.
Last night I left his place and climbing to altitude I noticed the Dynon
still had its bank error, so I decided I would have to send it in. I
leveled at 11,500 turned on the Navaid and settled in for a 440 nm trip.
(2+58 min, 22.5 gallons against a 10+ kt headwind, I love this airplane!)
Shortly after level off, I looked at the Dynon, and it was dead on..... Go
figure???? Anyone else seen any wandering on the Dynon? I will email them
and see what they say.
I am still thrilled with the Dynon and still very willing to fly IFR based
on the backups that I have on board.
Tailwinds,
Doug Rozendaal

Subject: | Oil filter mount gasket |
--> RV-List message posted by: "D. Jones" <dljinia@yahoo.com>
I've just removed the oil filter mount in order to put
a 90 degree fitting for the oil cooler line. 45
degree pointed at 7:00 o'clock doesn't work with the
new constant speed prop govenors the 90 at about a
1:30 does. Different subject.
The question: I'm ready to put the mount back in
place. I was careful as I could be with taking the
mount off. The gasket is not torn but there is a
slight layer in some spots on the mount where the
gasket didn't stay completely on the engine side.
Hard to describe but think you get the drift... Should
I uses some type of sealant here? replace the gasket?
don't worry about it?
Tried to find the answer in the archives but my search
was leading me no where fast.
Thanks in advance.

Doug I would replace the gasket as it has been compressed and has lost a lot
of it's ability to seal.

From Previous post:
If my GPS fails . . I'll declare an emergency ??!!!???
With all due respect; are you kidding. You do what you need to do to
conclude your flight safely. Knowing your limits shows good judgement and
that is the most important thing.
But I'd suggest you practice without a GPS once in a while.
I can not begin to imagine a situation where my GPS failing (in VFR
conditions) would even be concern for not continuing on to my orignal
destination.
I'm not ex-military, I don't fly for the airlines, heck, I've only got 600
hrs since I got my ticket 3 1/2 yrs ago, so I'm no expert.
But, and I believe this very strongly. If you need a GPS to find your way
home in VFR conditions, you shouldn't be in the air.
Now, using a GPS to find an airport in all that urban clutter at night is
another matter.
My Garmin 195 gets turned on at the beginning of every flight, you never
know when it can help save the day. But most of the time when I fly
locally, there is a post it note over the display. Keeps me from getting
lazy. Its also useful for keeping track of where I am when I'm in NY or
Boston's Bravo's.
Sorry if I sound preachy, but I hate to see otherwise good pilots become so
GPS dependant.
Don Mei
Law that forbid ownership of arms disarm only those who are neither
inclined, nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for
the assaulted and better for the assailants. They serve rather to encourage
than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater
confidence than an armed man. --Thomas Jefferson

Dear -listers,
Sorry to have to dredge up such a morbid subject (again), but I have
some new info if you live/fly/register your project in Illinois. Not
all states are this punitive, but it might pay to check this out in your
state to verify. . .
Any purchases a builder makes from out of state from retailers (this
includes Van's kits, Cleaveland seats, Aerosport Power engines, etc.)
for which you don't pay sales tax are taxable in Illinois at 6.25%, and
if you don't pay this sales tax from day 1 and assume like I did that
you'll have to cough it up upon completion and registration of your
finished project, think again!
