An instructor friend teachs students this little blurb after clearance for
takeoff,,,,,,,,,,,, "lights, camera, action". Which means - turn on the

Ralph, I am a controller at Denver Artcc, I am not sure what your airport radar
coverage is like, but in most instances all of our radar is line of site. Thats
why quite often in hilly or mountainous terrain we cant pick up all targets
till they reach certain altitudes. Your transponder anntenae is on the bottom
of your aircraft and will need close to an unimpeded line to our radar for us
to be able to interogate the data from your transponder and verify your equipment
is working accurately. Hope this helps.

Fellow listers,
Is there any way to check your transponder on the ground? I had a conversation
with the controller at my airport today and he told me that I needed to be airborne....meanwhile,
this little birdie from flight school reminds me that I was
always instructed to leave my transponder in the 'Stand-By' mode till I took
the active so it wouldn't mess up the controllers.
Considering that I was a hundred yards away, I thought that he could have told
me to hit the ident button and be done with it...we have radar on the field too
but that shouldn't matter.
Am I nutso? Does one of us not really know how stuff works? I'll be more than happy
to take an education from this list.....
Thanks

Reply: Sure, the controller should be able to give you a readout from your
transponder while on the ground unless his equipment just won't pick up
from certain locations on the field.

Reply: He can do that too. A good way to check your static system accuracy
while at speed is to do a low pass over the runway (50 feet above the runway
is fine). Your altimeter and transponder should indicate approximately 50
feet above the field. By the way, altitude encoders feeding transponders
are only accurate to +/- 100 feet.
>this little birdie from flight school reminds me that I was always

Reply: A Designated Examiner who flies in and out of Atlanta's Hartsfield
busy airport said controllers there told him it was fine to leave the
transponder in mode C reporting altitude. They rather have it that way than
have the pilot forget to put it in mode C after take off. They will tell
you to put it in standby if it is a problem.

Thanks to all who responded....between the postings, Van's FWF
documentation, and looking at a working example, I was able to get the
information that I need...
For future reference:
I am planning on placing the canon-plug connector on the firewall above the
crease line that points the top portion of the firewall forward at a slight
angle and outboard of the vertical rib on the passenger side. Essentially
inboard and higher than the placement of the brake fluid reservoir for
dual-brake applications. The canon-plug will be wired in to the fuse block
for the always hot bus and grounded to my grounding bus mounted on the
firewall.
I'll have pictures after I'm done if anyone wants them - zap me direct.

Jerry,
I plan on using two fuel filters of 25 micron purchased from
http://pegasusautoracing.com/. One in each supply prior to the value, thus
protecting the valve and the pump. Chris Heitman on this list owns the
business and he has built a RV-9A, I believe.

Thanks to all that responded to the initial post - I think that I understand the
part of the original posting regarding ATC, standby, and their ability to 'see'
me on the ground.
This still leaves me with a lack of knowledge of how to ensure that my transponder
is responding to interrogations correctly.
My airport is within the mode C veil so I'll technically need it even for first
flight (that's a ways off too but if I gotta get something fixed - now's the
time). Do I need to contact an avionics shop with portable test gear? Removing
the radio seems silly since I need to test my system not just the radio.
Any takers......

I have been flying my RV6 (34 hours) with a Becker
transponder which shows me what is being reported to ATC and it is
correct. I have also verified it with a check from an approach
controller. Since I am the repairman for this airplane can I sign off
this system or do I need to pay for a sign off? This sounds like a dumb

If you need to fly the plane to an airfield with an appropriate
avionics shop, you can call ATC and ask for a waiver to operate
without Mode C for that purpose.

If you look at the picture more closely, you will see that the oil
cooler is mounted to the firewall with a plenum that places it away from
the firewall, allowing the air to exit below the cooler.

Sorry, good try. FAR 91 tells you exactly who must do your

I'm not in front of my regs at the moment or I would quate yuo but its in

I have heard from more than one source that you do need an avionics guy in
there to give it the proper signoff and test. This ensures that the device
is reporting the correct altitudes to the radar interrogation.
I have the MicroAir T2000 which also has this feature of displaying what
altitude it is responding to ATC with, so I see how this may be seen as "not
needed" in our cases.
According to FAR 91.413 (c) ... "The tests and inspections specified (in
Appendix F, Part 43) in this section must be conducted by:
1) a "certified repair station" ... and the requirements of that station
are then listed. Our "repariman certificate" does not include a "radio
rating, ClassIII".
OR
3) The manufacturer of the aircraft on which the transponder was installed
....
It would seem to me that *I* am the manufacturer, so *I* have the ability to
sign this off.
Then have a look at what the tests involved ARE .. in AppxF, Part 43. I have
NO CLUE what any of that stuff means. Too bad it didn't say "Just look at
the transponder display screen to see if it is reporting altitude correctly
+-100 feet when corrected for 29.92".

Definitely search the archives on this Jerry.
One see through filter before the fuel pump that can be checked at pre-flight would
be a pretty reliable solution in my opinion. I don't think redundant fuel
sources is worth giving up the pre-flight check. AN fittings would be more
leak resistant, but before the fuel pump, the system is sucking so leak resistance
is a lot less needful. I've settled on the Purolator PRO #806. Drop me
a line offline if you want to talk details.

Ah, that little light bulb just went on. I may not be of much help, but
for arguments sake let's talk about transponder testing at the avionics
shop. As I understand it, (I could be wrong) even if you're not IFR
certified you still need a transponder check every two years. This can
be accomplished at the avionics shop OR the test can be done from the
controllers readout .... to verify the altitude codes. However, with a
new unit that may have sat on the shelf for two years or more while
you're building .... are you outside the two years check period??? I
dunno. Second thing is that I've not heard of any enforcement action
taken because of a transponder failure (Senator what's-his-face going to
washington recently would have been a good candidate!!!) so there's
really no problem there. I've flown into (and out of) class B space
with a broke transponder .... it was in ident mode all the time ......
and then quit altogether ...... the controller just informed me of the
problem and I went on my way. It's fixed. So, I'd worry about bent
tails and smiley faces ..... and have your local controller verify your
trnasponder on your first flight ... as long as you don't have any other
pressing problems. Even if it's not working correctly, it'll be a
non-event which can be saved for another less stressful time. Just MHO,
and I hope someone with real knowledge will chime in. Reading the FAR's
isn't on my list of ways to spend my time.

Unfortunately, the tests that are required by FAR
91.411 are not possible to do without specialized
test equipment. They go way beyond just seeing
if the transponder's output agrees with the
altimeter.
If you want to fly IFR, FAR 91.411(a)(1) says:
Within the preceding 24 calendar months, each
static pressure system, each altimeter
instrument, and each automatic pressure altitude
reporting system has been tested and inspected
and found to comply with appendix E of part 43 of
this chapter;
FAR 43 Appendix E has a very detailed test of the
accuracy of the altimeter and encoder.
That means that both the altimeter and the
altitude encoder must be checked against a static
pressure test set to confirm that they are
accurate. It is not good enough to verify that
the altimeter and the encoder are saying the same
thing.
FAR 91.413 applies for VFR and IFR. FAR 91.413(a) says:
No persons may use an ATC transponder that is
specified in 91.215(a), 121.345(c), or
135.143(c) of this chapter unless, within the
preceding 24 calendar months, the ATC transponder
has been tested and inspected and found to comply
with appendix F of part 43 of this chapter.
FAR 43 Appendix F specifies a test of the radio
transmissions from the transponder, Radio Reply
Frequency, Reciever Sensitivity, etc. This test
requires specialized equipment and knowledge.
FAR 91.413(b) says:
Following any installation or maintenance on an
ATC transponder where data correspondence error
could be introduced, the integrated system has
been tested, inspected, and found to comply with
paragraph (c), appendix E, of part 43 of this
chapter.
This means that you must do the same accuracy
test as the IFR guys, after installation, or any
maintenance that could affect the accuracy of the
encoder. This would probably include any work on
the wiring between the encoder and the
transponder. Yes, a comparison of the altimeter
against the transponder's readout would meet the
intent of this check, if you only did wiring
work, but unfortunately you have to meet the
letter of the reg, not just the intent.

Try Spybot S&D (search and destroy). Works very well for me. It has an
Immunize feature that I like. It keeps you from getting the same thing over
and over.
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
Also there is AdAware. Works well and is easier, but I run Spybot after
AdAware and get a lot more spyware. You can run both.

Good luck.

I have had trouble with spyware recently. Took about 6 weeks to get rid of everything.
First downloaded Lavasoft's Adaware. Then, Spybot Search and Destroy.
Followed that with CWShredder. I also use Norton's to do my virus detection

I also have several clients that rely on me to help them and I have used the same

Jerry,
I'll second Marty's suggestion. 5 of the local RV builders got together
and made a group purchase of the fuel filters made by Eze Flow and sold by
Pegasus. These are the filters recommended by AirFlow Performance for their
fuel injection systems.
Installing a filter in the area between each fuel tank and the fuselage
has several advantages.
#1 A clogged filter can be bypassed by switching fuel tanks. (Avoids
single point of failure)
#2 Fuel is filtered before it reaches your fuel selector valve and
electric pump. This prolongs the life of these parts.
#3 Servicing the filter is easier and doesn't cause fuel spillage in
the cockpit. Simply remove the wing intersection fairing for access.
#4 These filters are tapped 3/8" NPT at each end. This allows use of
standard AN fittings. It gives you the choice of using a straight
(AN816-6-6D) 45 degree (AN823-6-6D) or 90 degree angle (AN822-6-6D)
fittings. You have more flexibility in plumbing your filters, as you have
more options.

Maybe RV's are different but, we've had nothing but problems with
filters upstream of the electric fuel pump in Glasairs. I have a real
problem with installing any device in the fuel system that doesn't have
some kind of automatic bypass. The big problem is that your engine sucks
the fuel from the tank. This means your most likely type of leak is
going to be air bubbles into your fuel line. Hard to find, symptoms are
engine stumble at high power settings. All cases of this in Glasairs
were cured by removal of the inline filters and relying on the
gasculator to do it's job.
I have the Andair Gas 500 gasculator, built in bypass, excellent
product.

Waaaaay back in 1997 I purchased a non-ajustable voltage regulator from
Van's. Now, all these years later the regulator has gone belly-up. Does
anyone remember what type of regulator Van's was selling back then( who made
it/what type of car it was for)? The only thing on the regulator itself is
"made in USA" and the #61751. I took it to the NAPA store, where the guy
behind the counter just stared at me like I was nuts. If you can't tell them
a year, make, and model they are worthless.

Airflow Performance places the fuel filter upstream (before) the electric

You are correct that this sort of problem is tough to find.

Yes, because of the higher fuel pressure also means a higher vacuum
upstream of the pump, those with FI are the most susceptible.

--> RV-List message posted by: Dave Bristol <bj034@lafn.org>
Ralph,
For the normal 2 year check, the transponder can be bench checked at an
avionics shop. However according to 91.413 (b), after installation where
"data correspondence error could be introduced", the "integrated
system" must be checked. That means to me that you can't fly until the
complete static system has been checked.
91.413 (c) (3) says that the manufacturer can do the inspection and
test but I'll bet that you'd have to prove that you're qualified and
have the properly calibrated test equipment.

--> RV-List message posted by: Bobby Hester <bhester@hopkinsville.net>
Well I got a call a earlier today that there was an RV6A at our airport
awaiting better weather and that the pilot would like to see my RV if I
was not busy. Hoped in the truck and zipped off to the airport.
Kevin Belue was there with his beautiful RV6A he was on his way to
Oshkosh, when he left John C. Tune in Nashville the sky was blue but by
the time he got here the sky was closing in. We checked the weather on
the terminal computer and it looked like it might be past us in an hour
or so. Off we went to my hanger so Kevin could check out my RV7A. After
a while we went back to the terminal and saw that the rain was all past
us but the overcast was around 1300 and did not even start to clear up
past Evansville, IN. Kevin made the decision to tie it down and head to
a hotel. I helped him and then took him to a local hotel.
He is safe and sound for the night and it looks like things should clear
up tomarrow so he can countine on. I hope to hit the road Tuesday
morning with a buddy for Oshkosh, hope to see some of you guys there :-)

Wax paper is fine. You can also use packing tape, duct tape, or electrical
tape. Saran wrap is good too as long as you are sure not to rip it.

Doug, what exactly are you doing with regards to mixture? You only said
that you are not leaning...
Mixture is about the most important factor in controlling cylinder temps
(assuming baffling correct, etc.). I can run the temps up and down about
40 F degrees just by messing with mixture. Obviously, power settings vs
indicated airspeed vs OAT are huge also. That being said, there are
screwy things going on in the cooling air exit area on the 6A's. Have a
look at:
http://www.home.earthlink.net/~alexpeterson/coolingmods.htm
I now climb up to altitude at full throttle, full mixture (yes, lots of
gas going in but in an RV it isn't for very long). I'll dial the prop
back to 2500 or so when the MAP has dropped to 26 or so inches. Some
power is lost with these extremely rich mixtures, but the engine will
really stay cool compared to being closer to peak power. I swiped these
methods from John Deakin's Avweb articles, and they really do work.
When I level off, I dial the prop down, and do an all at once mixture
pull until I feel power drop, then tweak it in using EGT.

Bobby, thanks for looking after our man Kevin! :-)
My brother and I plan to launch from DCU Tuesday morning so maybe we
will see you up the road. We'll stop at Watertown, WI to gas up for the
approach into OSH.

Local plastic airplane guy visited me years ago while working on my gear leg
fairings. Said duct tape works great for forming simple curves and as a
release masking. He was right. No additional wax, goop, etc, needed.
Epoxy pops right off.
