Listers,
I have seen the vents at the bottom of the cowl that are used to help air
exit the cowl for cooling purposes. Does anyone know where to find these
vents?

Here's some trivia to file away.
Anybody care to guess what the pressure in your brake line is???? Jim Winings
measured it. He said he measured up to 350 psi for a firm brake application
and around 500 psi if you are giving it everything you got.
Cool info, eh?

GlacierAnyone in RV-land with the following configuration (RV6/160HP
O-320/Ed Sterba Wood prop) and some performance numbers for the following?
1. Static RPM
2. Takeoff RPM
3. Max RPM 1000 ft. (+ MP if possible) ... speed (IAS, TAS, Ground speed
even and rate of climb <ROC>)
4. Max RPM 8000 ft. (+ MP if possible) ... speed (IAS, TAS, Ground speed
even and rate of climb <ROC>)
I did archival searches on both this list and the Yahoo list and could not
find anything. Yet, I seem to recall that some time ago someone launched an
initiative to get comparable data.
I am simply curious as to what the ranges might be on the above. I have
talked to Ed about numbers and our RV6 *might* could use a little more bite
but on the other hand it may be "just fine".
Please respond "off list" for dialogue ... james@nextupventures.com
Thanks,
James

Netiquete: Simple guidelines followed by polite users of email list groups.
Things like not using all caps unless you intend to be shouting.
Or trimming posts
Trimming posts is when you quote someone, and only includes the
portions that are relevant towards understanding the context of your
reply. There are two reasons for trimming posts; (1) that it reduces
the lenght of posts (we've all seen 100 lines of quoted text, and a one
line response in the bottom), and (2) it makes life easier for the ones
that read the lsit as a digest.
ALL THE MORE IMPORTANT IF YOU GET THE DIGEST, DO NOT REPLY AND INCLUDE THE
ENTIRE DIGEST.

| Subject: | Heater question? |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Doug Rozendaal" <dougr@petroblend.com>
There is a tremendous variation in the outlet temperature between various
RVs, I have a question.
Do heaters that throttle the air going into the muff yield hotter air than
those that throttle the exit air?
My thinking here is maybe the restriction on the exit side creates a venturi
that has a cooling effect much like blowing compressed air on your hand with
a blow gun? A mini ACM, or sonic nozzle?
Can we have a little survey with the Northerners, (I mean people who fly in
the single digits, 25 deg F is not cold) and see if there is a correlation
between good and poor heaters and the location of the flow restriction?
My heater works good down to about 20 deg. below that it is marginal. I
added pot scrubbers with little if any improvement. My restriction is on
the outlet of the Muff. I want to be comfortable.
I have flown other RVs that will blow hot air well below Zero F. I can't
figure out the difference. I am not talking about leaks, drafts, and cabin
insulation, just the exit air temp from the heater vents. (The delta T
across the Muff for you engineer types.)
It is getting cold up here and I have a ton of traveling to do this winter.
Tailwinds,
Doug Rozendaal.

NEW Low Oil Level Sensor
( You can even replace your oil drain plug with it! )
Check it out at www.aircraftextras.com
Just thought Id tell the group that I have been working on developing a
Low Oil Level Sensor for an O360 engine. It may fit others too. It is now
available for sale complete with a blinking LED for panel installation.
Later, I will offer a brighter and larger light.
I mainly did this because I never wanted to get a Low Oil Pressure light
indication in my plane, telling me that I had an oil leak. By that time,
it might be too late for a good power on landing. If you check the
accident archives, there have numerous low oil level problems over the
years, and I never saw an instrument to indicate this.

Hi Bert
first off, it is not unusual to get hit several days in a row,
especially if the computer who is sending you that stuff is not aware of
the problem. If this is the case the only thing you can do is save the
mesage and file a complaint with your ISP with a copy of the message and
hope that your ISP will follow up for you.
You have to save the whole message as the info you see in the 'from'
field is not always what the (normally invisible) header says it really
came from.
I get virusses on a semi regular basis, many times it will appear either
from the RV-list or a subscriber from the RV list. The only reason that
happens is because the infected computer has stored somewhere in the
past a message from me. When I look in the message header it has never
mentioned 'matronics' anywhere.
Did Norton, find a virus problem *and* actually remove it for you. I
have had some virus on my son's computer that acted as a 'beacon' and
whenever he rebotted his computer it would redownload.
I found that out be accident when I cleaned his registry and found a
bunch of programs starting I did not recognize. Sure enough, running one
of them would reinfect the computer, IF it was connected to the internet.
In the end all you currently can do is to keep your antivirus up to date
and hope it will catch the virus in the emails.

--> RV-List message posted by: Garry Legare <versadek@earthlink.net>
Doug,
I've got two Robbins muffs (with no scrub pads) in series one on each
pipe, the first one has a 1" restricter in it. This goes to a standard
heat box then thru the firewall and splits into two 1 1/4" ducts which
are terminated about 8" above the occupants feet. During my cabin
heating/venting testing I instumented the outlet air temp. The temp was
in excess of 165 degrees F (gauge limit), in fact it's so hot if you
leave it full on for more than 15 minutes your feet get too hot.
The problem I had initially is the amount of air coming in from the tail
( I have aileron boots) overwhelmed the hot air and you could hardly
feel the heat. After I got that volume reduced the heater really
started working with out doing anything to it. I still have a small
problem with cold air coming from the tail cone and will be working on
it again this winter. One thing I have noticed, is now that I have the
cabin sealed up tight is My CO detector is showing way more CO coming
in than I find acceptable. This is with the heater on or off and it is
not coming from the heater ducts or the firewall, but from the tail. The
exhaust attaches itself to the flow along the belly and is brought in
with the air. My CO detector has a digital readout, is portable, and
very sensitive and it has been moved around during extensive flight
testing. I can change the CO percent by adjusting the mixture or by
opening or closing the cabin air vents. With the vents wide open there
is a tremendous amount of air coming in and it over powers the tail
pressure. I've discussed longer exhaust extensions with Larry the
exhaust GURU and he says that they have tried various lengths with out
any luck. In the next few weeks I'm going to be getting back on this as
it's too cold to be flying around with the air vents wide open. Good
luck. I'll let you know what I find.

I think Matt will back me up when I say that the likelyhood of you
receiving a virus from *this* RV-List (ie. the one based at Matronics)
is *extremely* low, even non-existent. If you've got something claiming
to be from "rv-list@matronics.com" that has a virus in it, let Matt know
as i'm sure he'd be interested in seeing it.
If you've picked something up while browsing the Yahoo groups, I
wouldn't be surprised. Nothing against Yahoo, I use many of their
groups. But Yahoo doesn't control their advertisers very well and many
graphic ads have tracers embedded that track your browsing habits and
report back to some third-party servers. They could also conceivably
install various little annoying virii that way, if you have java and
javascript enabled by default.
> Can some one give me some idea, what I had done wrong, or
> what is to be done?
One thing you did wrong was to post a question about a virus to an RV
Discussion list... 8-)
The solution is to run Norton or McAfee anti-virus software, and keep
the virus data files up-to-date (both Norton and McAfee have menu
options to update the files). Both Norton and McAfee have ways to
remove virii, or offer suggestions how to remove virii, when they are
found. Another useful program is AdAware, that looks for and removes
most of the annoying little virii that websites store as cookies on your
system.
Hope this helps!

For what it's worth, I use an antivirus program from AVG:

viruses every once in a while and find them when I do a complete scan,
which either heals the infected file or moves it to a 'virus vault'.

Garry,
To change the subject a little, what did you do to reduce the volume
of air that comes in from the tail cone? I remember some testing you
did, but don't seem to remember the final results.
Relating to the pressure in the cockpit, I have my Altrak controller
head in the tailcone, and it is NOT plumbed into the static line,
just open to ambient.
I can change the altitude by 20' or so by opening or closing the

Hey y'all,
It is also nice to contribute some money so that the list can keep
going. Even if you never post anything you still should be a decent human
being and send Matt a few bucks. You can deduct it from your income tax.
It is also neat to read all your list mail before answering a question as
many others may have already answered. More, your answer might embarrass you!

While we're on this subject.....
If you are running a Microsoft Windows machine and use Internet
Exploder, there is an option under the "Tools" drop down menu to run
"Windows Update". Generally speaking, it is a good idea to run the
update at least weekly and install all "Critical" patches. This should
help to prevent catching some of the more difficult to remedy viruses.
If you run something other than Internet Exploder, go to
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and run the update program from
there.
IE gets lots of bad press (deservedly) but that is not the only way for
a Windows machine to get infected.....

.2495 is a common size reamer for press fit, close tolerance 1/4" fittings
such as Hi-Loc & Hi Shear. However, we've never seen a .3124 reamer. You'll
probably have to go .005 undersized for close tolerance &/or move up .001 to
a full 5/16 (.3125) reamer.

You guys all keep stating 0.001" in your replies.
Unless I am mistaken, the difference between 0.3124 and a standard
0.3125 reamer is 0.0001".
I suspect that whoever needs this could use the 0.3125 just fine.

As Ole Gummibear says "You measure it three times with a lazer (within
.000001), mark it with a magic marker and then cut it with an ax". We spent
8 hrs drilling out and reaming the first hole. Then we read the directions
and drilled & reamed all the rest at LOW speed and a LITTLE pressure in less
than an hour. HRII N561FS We built an airplane not a moon lander. KABONG

Last minute
It seems that in years past there has been more mention and discussion of
the annual contribution drive than this year. I have no Idea how Matt is
doing this year but I wanted to remind some of you who might not have gotten
around to it yet just what we get out of his lists, or at least what I get
out of them:
With a few minutes at the keyboard you can get attention to your question or
problem by some real experts on the subject who somehow all seem to be true
gentlemen too. Over the years I have developed a deep respect for any
comments or answers posted by Eustace Bowhay or Doug Rozendaal or Kevin
Horton or Robert Nuckolls (Aeroelectric List) or Pat Hatch or Randy Levold
or Sam Buchanon (smiley face here) or maybe a dozen others who always seem
to have been there and done that, or maybe wrote the book about it or taught
the class in it or maintain a website on it. Sometimes it takes a long time
to really appreciate the depth of knowledge of these guys, individually and
collectively. They never tell you that they wrote the book; they just give
you a courteous and detailed answer to your question. After awhile you begin
to realize what an extraordinary place we are in history where we can get
such detailed answers to our questions from experts literally around the
world.
Matt's lists make it possible. We need to make sure he keeps on doing it.
Send him some money.

The Flyer replica planned for use in the 12/17 reenactment at Kill Devil
Hills has crashed with no injuries, and word is theyll have it repaired for
the event.
Remember, the original crashed on 12/14/1903it took two days to rebuild,
but the Wrights promised their father (the Bishop) they would not fly on a
Sunday, so they delayed the next attempt until Monday the 17th.

The most effective thing you can do, at least at the present time, is to
quit using Outlook for email & get non-Microsoft email software like
Netscape or Eurdora. You will still get the unwanted emails, but your
computer will be immune to them unless you actually double-click (run) a
.exe attachment to an email.

Probably nothing! But I have only joined cyberspace since the fall of 2001
when we were given our first PC from our daughter for our 50th anniversary
and we are real rookies in this business. When I read about identity theft,
hackers breaking into Pentagon computers, despite their security barriers,
blah-blah, I'm thinking the various routes my credit card info goes through
my ISP to the final destination through God knows who's data handlers ,
what's to prevent hackers tapping into those routes and down-loading data,
so called security encoding notwithstanding? I may be considered paranoid in
this, but so be it. I think the tried old "snail-mail" will work fine for
us, thanks.What's the hurry? So it costs us $Can 0.68 for the mail
stamp,-peanuts! By the same token, I'm very carefully to observe that there
is no double-swiping of my credit card when I make purchases using it, as
also I never give the card at a waiter in a restaurant where it will be used
out of my sight.

| Subject: | Re: Heater question? LONG |
--> RV-List message posted by: JDaniel343@aol.com
HI Doug,
On my RV-6 I have two heat muffs. Each to its own Vans heat box, the kind
with the flapper. I have 1 1/2" air inlets to the scatt tube that feeds the cold
air to the heat muff.
I flew my daughter to Rochester, MN last year. When we arrived it was 10 F
below, and my daughter and I were really cold.
I spoke to a few RV types in the area and they made some suggestions. I took
their advice and sealed up the cabin before we left.
First I filled in the little V grooves in the back bulkhead with V shaped
foam.
I then used 1/4" rope type foam insulation and glued this to the front roll
bar (I have a slider) where the slider frame hits the front roll bar. I then
used this same rope type foam and glued it to the outside rail of the slider and
the longeron. I also placed some 1/4" wide hollow rubber insulation tape
(about 1/8" thick when compressed) along the edge of the turtle deck. When I close
the canopy, the insulation gets compressed and seals this area.
Someone also suggested 1/2" pipe insulation (the round gray kind you use to
insulate hot water pipes). Cut this to the length of the rail that the rollers
from the slider roll in. When you get in the plane, shut the canopy and place
these pieces of insulation over the slider rail.
I also taped over the NACA ducts on the outside.
With these improvements, my daughter and I took off from Rochester, after
spending 2 extra days hoping the weather would warm up, the temperature at
departure was 12F below. Of course we had our jackets and gloves on but we were
fairly comfortable and could feel heet on our feet. After about 1/2 hour we began
turning the heat down.
Of course by the time we arrived back in Casper, WY - 5 hours later, it was
45F above.
The above tips worked for my plane. I believe most of the cold air comes in
from the back. Although I could feel air coming in at the junction of the front
roll bar and the slider canopy.
I know you have a RV-4, but maybe some of these tips can help.
I don't advise flying in such extreme conditions as we did. I usually won't
fly if it get below 5F above.
Good Luck and Happy Thanksgiving

| Subject: | First Flight for RV-9A N94ME |
--> RV-List message posted by: "C J Heitman" <cjh@execpc.com>
I'm delighted to report that my RV-9A, N94ME, flew for the first time today.
Everything was just about perfect. The only squawk was that the prop
governor (McCauley) seemed a little too sensitive. The useable range only
requires about 1/2" of travel on the prop control. I've posted a few more
details about the first flights and some pictures here:
http://my.execpc.com/~cjh/rv9a.html
I would like to thank Matt Dralle for providing this forum and the RV
Listers who freely share their knowledge. I'm certain the insights gained
here contributed to today's successful outcome (yes, I did make my
last-minute contribution to the list today).
I would also like to thank test pilot Rick Vichich for making the first two
flights before handing the airplane over to the low-time builder-pilot for
the day's third flight. EAA Flight Advisor Jerry Thorpe and Technical
Councilors Ron Scott and Fred Keip deserve special recognition as do the
other members of EAA Chapters 18 and 1177 who were always willing to lend a
hand or offer advice. Good friend Quinn Fiske handled the rivet gun in those
areas that couldn't be riveted solo. Most importantly, I would like to thank
my patient wife, Carla, for her help when an extra hand was needed in the
workshop, for moral support and for looking the other way when the Visa
statement arrived each month.
Lastly, I want to thank Van's Aircraft for a great design and a fantastic
kit.
It's difficult to put into words the feeling of accomplishment that I am
feeling right now. After nearly 4 years of effort, I can now clearly see
that this labor of love was worth every minute.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day and this year I have something very special to
be thankful for.
