Hi Curt,
I filed a shallow groove down from the grease nipple to allow a path for
the grease to follow, seems to work.
Cheers,

Subject: RV-List: Sticking Tailwheel Swivel
--> RV-List message posted by: "Curt Reimer" <cgreimer@mb.sympatico.ca>
I couldn't find any info in the archives on this one, so here goes:
I have about 50 hours total on my RV-6 so far, and I find that my
tailwheel
pivot point (full swivel) tends to start sticking every 10-15 hours or
so. I
can still kick it free so it isn't a major hazard when it starts to
stick,
but it's a sure sign that I need to grease it again. I'm using standard
automotive wheel bearing grease.
To make things more inconvenient, I find the grease fitting totally
useless.
What happens is that grease will fill up and begin to leak out under the
top
washer, but nothing gets to the bottom bearing surface, where I need it.
The
only solution is to disassemble the swivel and manually grease 'er up.
I can live with this, but is this normal procedure for you other
tailwheel
drivers? I operate off of grass but the tailwheel area generally stays
pretty clean, although it does get slightly mucky after a rain. Did I
leave
out a washer or something? I don't recall having one for this assembly.
Comments appreciated.
Curt
RV-6, 50 hours. Took up my first passenger last night. Oh man, this is
fun.
If I'm not flying I'm thinking about the next flight. Help me, I'm
addicted
and my gas bills are out of control! I'm exhausted from getting up at
5:00
AM every day to go flying before work!

Those prices are truly ridiculous, I would have just looked at it as a
"cute" little add on not a major avionics purchase.
I guess if I were "low riding with blacked out windows on 20" wheels" it

Ok all you "10" builders - I talked to Van's Tuesday around noonish and here's
the latest:
They will be mailing out an information packet later this week or early next.
The first 40 tail
kits will be ready to go around the 22nd of this month. At this point, they're
planning on filling
40 kits per month until the initial order (of a bit over a 100 kits) is taken care
of.

--> RV-List message posted by: "Pat Perry" <pperryrv@hotmail.com>
The Skyhaven Pilots Association will be having their fall fly-in/drive-in
breakfast on Sunday, September 21st, from 8am - 2pm. We have had a few
washouts in a row and are really reaching out for some attendance at this
breakfast to help build the bank account.
We have about 20 crafters, skydivers from Endless Mountain Skydiving, static
and flying displays of vintage (a.k.a. "plain old") aircraft, and airplane
rides in a 1943 Stinson V77 Gull Wing Big Red available for anyone
interested.
We usually get a model club flying and displaying their models, a local
string band sometimes stops in for a few hours of public practice and a
local antique engine collector sets up a display of old hit-and-miss and
novelty engines.
Anyone who has ever flown to Skyhaven in Tunkhannock PA can tell you this is
a unique airport to visit. There is a 2000' paved runway located within a
1/2 mile of the center of town. When landing to the south on runway 19
adjust your 1500 MSL left pattern to a little closer to the runway avoid
the mountain and hang glider launch which is in the pattern at 1650 MSL.
Turn base to final at the traffic light in town and watch for the trees on
short final.
If you cant make it because the wife needs to get some shopping done dont
worry, Wal-Mart is right across the street along with Burger King (incase
you are still hungry after the breakfast). The grocery store is along the
taxiway to runway 19.
We are about 2 months from having 100LL fuel on the field so please fly-in
with what you need unless you want auto gas. We share a street entrance
with Texaco (almost enough room to taxi to the pump if there werent all
those cars in the way!).
Breakfast is $5 adult/ $2 child and includes all you can eat pancakes, eggs,
sausage, ham, coffee, milk and OJ. Our pancakes are the best Ive had and
the sausage patties are excellent.
Hope to see a whole flock. or is it gaggle of RVs in the field,

Here's the rub: O2 transport is both by solution and by active binding to hemoglobin,
with a very nonlinear dissociation curve; CO2, N2 and other gasses are
all passively carried to and from the alveoli in solution in plasma (the liquid
portion of your blood) and the kinetics are linear for them.
At least that's what I recall; it's been 23 years, and I don't use this knowledge
much in day to day practice, thankfully ;-)
By the way, what does this have to do with how much I love my pricey AirStop inner
tubes?

No. O2 bind to hemoglobin passively. Hgb has affinity for O2 and CO2 and (unfortunately
CO) in proportions that allow O2 delivery and CO2 removal (and more
difficult removal of CO, because it binds more tightly with HGB.
Crossing alveolar membranes by atmosperic gases is, likewise, a passive (non-energy
consuming) process.

From the article:
"As the NOAA-N Prime spacecraft was being repositioned from vertical to
horizontal on the "turn over cart" at approximately 7:15 PDT today, it
slipped off the fixture, causing severe damage."
From the picture, you can see it laying down on it's side where it
fell. Since they managed to "reposition" it "from vertical to
horizontal," i'd say there's a better than average chance the labourers
could argue that they actually completed their task successfully.

It should be mounted so it is in the same position as the EFIS.
From the installation guide.
"The EDC-D10 must be mounted such that its orientation is as closely aligned
with the EFIS-D10 as possible. It should be mounted with the long axis
parallel to the wings, the electrical connector facing toward the front of
the plane, and the mounting tabs on the bottom. The bracket used to hold the
EDC-D10 must account for all differences in angles between the EFIS-D10 and
the EDC-D10. This includes pitch, roll, and yaw. We recommend you use an
electronic level that reads to 1/10th of a degree to make sure the EDC-D10
is aligned with the EFIS-D10 in pitch and roll to better than 2/10th of a
degree."

By "spoiler" do you mean speed brakes? I was a Mooney dealer until their
2001 implosion. The speed brakes on the modern Mooney are made by Precise
Flight in Bend, Oregon. The retail cost of them is about $4,000 (that's a
wag, because I have only seen an "installed" price). The work great for
slowin' down or goin' down. I use them on every flight in a Mooney. I don't
know whether they're necessary on an RV, but of course "necessary" is rarely
the prime consideration on our aircraft.

I had to do this a couple of years ago on my -8A. Sorry I can't remember

and tell you how to order it . They are very easy and pleasent to work

harness on their hands or want to split a harness with me?
Thanks in advance.

Why not put the money of spoilers into a nice constant speed. Then you wont
need spoilers.

--> RV-List message posted by: DWENSING@aol.com
Have a concern that needs some expert review.
My lower inboard flap skins do not align well with the fuse. The flap is too
high in relation to the fuse and the over lapping skin must bend when the
flaps are retracted. Anyone else have this problem? and what did you do about it?

| Subject: | E-714 right elevator counterweight trimming |
--> RV-List message posted by: Charlie & Tupper England <cengland@netdoor.com>
Well, a quick archive search didn't turn up much, so here's my
contribution. Not presented as 'the' way to do it, just 'a' way to do it.
A table saw with a carbide blade works fine for removing most of the
lead except for the area that must be radiused (got to avoid those
stress risers in those fishin' sinkers ;-) ) Set the blade height to
remove the thickness desired & make multiple passes like cutting a dado.
Or do what I did if you want to risk fingers & thumbs: make one cut
across the nose using the rip fence then one cut across the face using
the cross-cut guide. You get to keep a chunk of the lead, but it's a lot
more risky.
I then used a 1/4" shank, 1/2" diameter rotary file, cylindrical, round
top (USATCO p/n 452HSS is similar) to mill the radius. I chucked it in
my drill press, adjusted the table height so that the tip of the cutter
just missed the surface left by the table saw, & made multiple very
shallow & slow cuts until the side of the cutter reached my limit mark
on the counterweight.
I know there's a better way. Somebody just needs to share how....

Dale, I would joggle the flap skin, i.e., put a little step in the skin so
that it mates with the fuselage.

Yup. Had that same issue on my RV-7 on both flaps. I trimmed and joggled
the lower flap skin edge so that it sits flush. I might chop the whole
inboard end off if I don't end up happy with how it looks when it's
final-assembled, but it looked ok when I did my initial wing mating.
Lemme know if you want photos (or just dig through my web site for wing
mating stuff...).

| Subject: | Duckworks Lighting Question |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Karie Daniel" <karie4@comcast.net>
I'm installing my duckworks landing light and there is a rib shaped template. Section
2.4 of the plans say to fit the template into the leading edge (ok so far)
then mark the 2 locations. On the template it's marked "A" and "B" which I
can safely say is the 2 locations.
The next step says to drill the 6 holes! Each rib according to the template gets
2 holes, not three. OK so now I go to the drawing and I see three holes are
supposed to be in each rib. Two at the top and one at the bottom! What in the
wide wide world of sports am I missing here?
Recommended web site with pics?
As always thanks for your help.
BTW...... Cutting that hole out was almost as much fun as slow dancing on a bed
of hot coals!

The idea is that you would have two angles at which you could install the
mounting plate. You'll probably only use one, but it's nice to have
options... 8-) Tailwheel folks might use one orientation, and nosedraggers
may use another orientation. Or, point one up for taxi, one down for
landing (or however you see fit). The plate is still adjustable to some
extent once you pick two mounting points, but the third point gives you even
greater flexibility.

There are two bottom holes. This give you an adjustment for the angle of
the light beam in theory, you should be able to adjust the light(s) for
either a level or 3 point attitude, depending on gear type and the landing
attitude you favor.

| Subject: | RV-7 IO-360 baffle question |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Dan Checkoway" <dan@rvproject.com>
Configuration: Van's IO-360 baffle kit, RV-7, drawing OP-4.
Does part 20 (right front inlet floor stiffener) go on TOP or BELOW part 10
(right front inlet floor). I believe the plans imply the stiffener on top,
but that seems like unnecessarily disturbing the flow a little bit -- the
little lip formed by the height of the stiffener.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance,

I think duckwork used to have three holes, a b and optional c.
When I ask about something they I believe they told me they were going
to get rid of c because it was not needed. Maybe the directions did not
keep up with the change.

All,
Any tips on getting the final little bit of bend on the trim tab? I got the most
of it done, but the inboard ends puff out (don't sit flush). Will the pop
rivets pull it flush?
Also, the countersink got away from me on one of the holes on the trim tab spar.
It is actually bigger than the -4. Should I squeeze down a 4 to make it a
little fatter? Any other standard rivets I could put it there? I am trying to
avoid buying another spar for one bad hole.
Thanks,
Scott

According to a few web pages I found (thanks Dan C.) this is apparently a
hole to adjust the mount more forward if you want. The way the mount comes
now it doesn't look like it would need the third hole. I finished the holes
tonight. I'm wondering now if I should put a light in each wing as I
originally planned.
Anyone using just one of these and are happy with the amount of lighting you
get?
I just don't know if I can bring my self to cut another hole in a perfectly
good wing! :-)
