Hi Mark,
Is the starter gear only engaging "about one third" because it's teeth are
bottoming out in the ring gear teeth?, or is it not extending far enough out
due to design limits or because of an internal fault? If the starter gears
are the same dimensions in all respects and the starter gear is traveling
out to it's full potential?, check to see that the starter gear teeth are
not too deep in relation to the ring gear. if they are place a shim between
the starter and the mounting pad to gain full gear clearance.
Good luck,
Jim in Kelowna

All,
I'm finishing up a presentation (for our EAA chapter) on cockpit design and
could use any digital pictures of completed (or almost completed) cockpits
and panels. Will probably use 3-4 pictures in the slide show and will
certainly credit the photographer/builder. They do not have to be from RVs.
If fact I could use 1-2 from older cert aircraft.
Please email them to >> crowbotham@myeastern.com
Thanks,

Reduction of background cockpit and engine noise while talking is a function of
the microphone, not the intercom.
Aircraft microphones are designed to be noise cancelling by having holes on both
side of the mike. With the mike pointed directly at your mouth and square to
your mouth, your voice is picked out of the noisy aircraft cabin.

The intercom with the current Microair is either on or off depending
whether you ground or un-ground the correct pin for intercom. When the pin
is grounded the intercom is live. when the pin is un-grounded the headset
is dead with no noise except what might be received on the radio receiver.
I heard of some transceiver system (can't recall) that has a squelch built
into the intercom which is part of the radio intercom system. It might be
the new Becker! anyone know ?
Yes the system is noisy when turned on but so are most other systems when
you break the squelch and talk. They all pick up cockpit, air and engine
noise. some more than others

to get more teeth the ring gear must have a large diameter. So when you use
fewer teeth, it will have a smaller diameter and will fail to mesh.

Consumption]
--> RV-List message posted by: Kevin Horton <khorton01@rogers.com> Consumption]
I'm on the road, with infrequent internet access, so please excuse the late
post.
Yes, the engine is a big air pump, and MP and RPM are definitely the major
factors in determining how much power is produced. But we can't ignore the
altitude. The higher the altitude the lower the exhaust back pressure, so
we get better cylinder scavenging and more power for the same MP and
RPM. For example, looking at the Lycoming O-360 power chart on curve
10350-A (this may have been replaced by a different curve in later manuals,
with slightly different powers, but the principle is the same). If I use
2400 rpm and 24" MP, and assume standard temperatures - at sea level I get
136 hp and at 5,000 ft I get 147 hp. If I look at 2500 and 20", I see 107
hp at sea level, 117 hp at 5,000 ft and 123 hp at 8,000 ft.
So, altitude matters, and those rules of thumb that purport to calculate
percent power from MP and RPM are not worth much.
Fuel flow is a much better measure of hp, as Mel originally noted. Using
fuel flow to determine power produced does assume you lean using some
repeatable technique, as the specific fuel consumption will vary depending
on whether you are at full rich, leaned to best power or leaned to max economy.

That would depend on the pitch of the teeth. Do both sizes of ring gear have
the same size teeth? You "could" have a smaller gear with a gazillion teeth
on it... correct?

Right. Check out some stuff on gears at
www.engineersedge.com select design data then look for gear
pitch conversions on the right side.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my question about the Microair 760 comm
radio, here is a summary of responses.
All nine were happy with performance of radio with comments such as crisp &
clear at 75 NM, and picks up ATIS farther out than Garmin GPS/COMM.
One user was 50/50 on radio, good performance but not happy with having to
send to Australia for warranty work.
Built in Intercom seems to have a problem with cockpit noise but so does my
Apollo SL-60.
I will watch progress on Xcom and if they miss their production date again I
will buy the Microair.
Thanks everyone.

I've got it! I will use all three suggestions. Relive the access hole down to
the flange; install a shim and nut plate. That way if I ever have to take the
bolt out for whatever reason I don't have to worry about fumbling around with
a little shim and nut threw a little hole.
Thanks for your help I'll post a picture when I get er done that is after I
place ANOTHER ORDER for the nut plate. 8-)

Brad...
I made the same mistake on my -6a you describe. I chose to drill out the
entire brace and replace with a new one. That way hole spacing is not a problem.
BTW, I don't quite understand when you say your flap is 3/8" "too high"... It
should just clear the top skin by 1/32" or so. Are we talking about the same
dimension? By "too high" you must mean the flap won't even begin to fit under
the top skin... Sorry if I'm dense...

Let me go back. IF the pinion is the same pitch, then the ring gear has to
get smaller for fewer teeth which is what the person described.

Don,
It would help if you shared with us the geographic area of interest. There
is a DAR list at Doug Reeves' "Van's Airforce" site.

Can I use a Macintosh with Virtual PC to run the Jeppesen Skybound II
service?
What interface "cable or device" do I use for the PCMCIA slot?

Jeff,
The 2nd picture on this page: http://my.execpc.com/~cjh/fuse-1.html shows
the split collar that I made to actuate the AOA microswitch. The round
collar has a flat on one side. It can be rotated to adjust the point of
actuation.

Anyone using the Proprietary Systems AOA unit have pictures of their
flap position switch installation?

Most Notebook computers have a PCMCIA slot. My notebook does and have added
PCMCIA adapters to both of my desktop machines. ActionTec makes the PC750
http://www.actiontec.com/support/readers/pc750.html. My Intel PIII 866 Win
98SE machine likes it but it did now want to work in my AMD XP 3000+ Win XP
Pro machine. (Win XP Pro driver did not support this manufacturer and the
manufacturer did not support XP with a driver.) Now Antec makes DataChute
PCI Internal PCMCIA Reader/Writer that works great in on this machine AMD XP
3000+. http://www.antec-inc.com/pro_details_dataIO.php?ProdID=64098
Can buy both on E-Bay but I know nothing about a Mac. The PCMCIA is
hardware. My experience with Mac has been what you buy is what you get
hardware wise. The PC has many different hardware manufacturers and as such
less standardarization than the Mac.
I have two PCMCIA hard drives that work in both machine and a SmartMedia
adapter. I purchased the SkyBound II but have not used it yet. (I have the
hardware but do not have the data service yet.) Having the PCMCIA adapter
in the desktop give me backup when the notebook does not work.

tower reported LOUD and CLEAR. The antenna is there to stay. In most crashes,
the tail is likely to survive better than the fuse or wing.... IMHO.

--> RV-List message posted by: "Mike Nellis" <mike@bmnellis.com>
Do anyone in the Austin area happen to have a pneumatic squeezer that I
could borrow for about an hour. I've got a couple of 3/16 rivets that
have to be squeezed and I haven't been working out lately. I would
return it the same day.
Thanks in advance.
