    --> RV-List message posted by: "Dana Overall" <bo124rs@hotmail.com> Ok, less than two weeks so it's time to crank up the publishing machine. The following companies have graciously donated items to the flyin at i39, Richmond/Madison: http://steinair.com http://www.aircraftextras.com/FPS-Plus.htm- one push flap operations engalt.com/aviation.htm-post light system Anywhere Map-total software package Avery Tools Van's aircraft I am working on more and will be hearing from them shortly. I expect to have as many door prizes, if not more than last year. I truly appreciate the donations and urge all to support those who support us. Last year we had 87 RV's as of noon when I stopped counting deal with lunch. This year it looks like lunch will be even better. As you remember, we had Hooters wings but no Hooters girls. Well, that will change this year. Be sure and bring your tip money, that is all I'll say right now:-) Start planning on your flights but do remember there is restricted airspace above the Army Depot to the east side of the interstate. Parking will be on the ramp on a first come first serve basis. Overflow parking is easily accomodated on the taxiway. I haven't yet talked with Mike from TeamRV but will be pushing that button later today along with the FFI cardholders from my group The Ohio Valley RVators. Guess this year I'll wear a TeamRV sweetshirt and an OVRVators hat:-) Reserve parking will be available on the ramp for any Super 8s, Rotary RVs, OVRVators and Team RV. I am going to request a missing man display in respect for my father, NOMAD's recently deceased father, Turbo Tom, our troops and anyone else who has suffered a loss since last year's flyin. Remember, this a flyin. No forums, no lectures, no presentations just a bunch of liers walking around swapping airplanes lies.............or, I mean stories:-) Just be careful, as the pattern was full of RV last year. We did have great weather last year which allowed people to fly in from Floriday, Michigan, PN, Iowa and all parts between. OK, you guys form Indy lets see if you can top your turnout of 25+ last year and OVRVators, let's give them a run for their money!! Just a teaser, here are the shots from last year. Let's put it in the top 10 RV attended flyins again!! http://members16.clubphoto.com/rick742624/guest.phtml If anyone wants to spend the night here is a list of local motels.

    --> RV-List message posted by: Dave Bristol <dbris200@sbcglobal.net> FWIW, I was all ready to run out and buy the new Garmin iQue 3600a GPS until I checked on what kind of output it has. According to Garmin, the only communications it has with the outside world is with "hotsync" and therefore will not be compatible with any other real-time equipment such as an autopilot or laptop. This may not keep me from getting one, but it has made me slow down and give it some more thought. Too bad, it looks like everything I need otherwise. Dave B -6 So Cal

    Subject: Airparks in TX
    --> RV-List message posted by: "mimartin@sweetwaterhsa.com" <mimartin@sweetwater.com> Charles, You have a wide choice of airparks in Texas. The ultimates like Pecan Plantation that have million dollar homes, golf course and every other amenity that $money$ can buy, to small grass strip parks that are all about economy. No doubt about it those high end parks are incredible and have price tags to match including maintenance fees for ever. If I had the money that might just be where I would settle, but I need a airpark that is economical and think I found just the place. Aero Estates is located just about 30 miles south of Tyler on Lake Palestine , one of the best fishing lakes in Texas. Half acre lots are starting at $14,000.00. The homes that have been built vary from impressive to hangar homes. I haven't built my dream yet but can afford to do so at these prices. There are several pilots in residence including an RV 8. www.aeroestates.org Mickey Martin RV 6 builder in WY

Under "specs" for the iQue 3600a, it list's interfaces which include USB, infrared, and RS232. The RS232, I believe is the output required to an auto-pilot, so you might want to double check. After wavering back & forth on this unit, I ended up with the Garmin 296, which has the required output--- for sure.

I was going to leave the long studs in place and build some sleeves/spacers out of heavy wall steel to take up the additional length. That would allow me install the clamps and then these spacers and then the nuts. Do you know of any reason this wouldn't work? GV (RV-6A N1GV O-360-A1A, C/S, Flying 736hrs, Silicon Valley, CA)

    Subject: !New! CS props for sale
    --> RV-List message posted by: <gmcjetpilot@yahoo.com> Les: I guess I am not sure what the answer is regarding the MT two blade (metal) prop for the 180HP or 200HP Lycoming (I)O-360. You state they have certified applications and "Done that been there" but inquiring minds want to know...I think the point Kevin was making is: Has MT specifically tested their prop with Lightspeed ignition, LASAR ignition, FADEC and High Compression Pistons. Hartzell is supporting the experimental market by actually testing a wide variety of props and even brands of engines like the XP-360, on a RV-8 of all things. I sure would like to see something like that from MT, stating they have done vibration surveys with these different configurations. No offense, but what does "Done that been there" mean? Prop manufactures have no obligation to test props for the experimental market. As far as "being sorry" for those of us with Hartzell props, I know you are kidding. Hartzell performance and the performance of their new Blended Airfoil model is without compare and has no mid-range RPM restriction on the 180hp Lyc with E ignition or FADEC. Also the Hartzell has widely available service and parts, new or reconditioned, and they cost less than the MT. If the new MT has no restrictions with 10.5 to 1 pistons and E ignition, than this is a fantastic additional choice for the experimental market.

Not at all. I do appreciate you helping to bring another prop option on to the market. I was just trying to make sure that other readers didn't take your statement at face value, as it gave the wrong impression about prop-engine compatibility. Yes, I've got a Hartzell, but I only bought one because my prop-engine combination doesn't have any rpm restrictions. If I had an O-360-A series, I would certainly be looking at other props like this MT. -- Kevin Horton RV-8 (finishing kit) Ottawa, Canada http://go.phpwebhosting.com/~khorton/rv8/ ---------------------------------

Can I perform real-time tracking with my iQue and a laptop computer? A. The Garmin iQue does not have the capability of performing real-time tracking. The iQue does not output data that the computer can use to determine its position for tracking purposes. The HotSync process is the only communications channel and does not have the ability to stay on continuously to transmit/receive data.

I have not seen any metal props in their product portfolio, but perhaps their website is not up to date. I called MT in Germany just Friday to ask a question, and they spoke English fine. I have not yet received my prop, so I can't comment further, but the guys I know with MT props are happy. -- Mickey Coggins http://www.rv8.ch/ #82007 Wiring

    Subject: Re: pourable tank sealant??
    --> RV-List message posted by: Charlie England <ceengland@bellsouth.net> I've written Flamemaster; I hope to get a reply on Monday. Some info on the web indicates there's a 'c' grade that's pourable, but I haven't found a supplier that shows it in their online catalog. Can the 'b' grade stuff be cut with MEK to thin it without hurting the effectiveness? The tank in question is the wing leading edge outboard of the stock tank. The problem was caused by applying the bead of sealant in line with the ribs' spar flanges instead of just inside of the rivet line inside the skin. Because of the gentle radius of the spar (acting as the back baffle of the new tank bays), the bead of sealant missed the spar completely. The other leading edge was just done this morning & by applying the bead next to the rivet line, all seems to be well. If the joint between the skin & spar can be filled, there shouldn't be a problem with the rest of the joints & rivets. My big concern is with the 'slosh' coating & then later peeling off the large areas of the tank that weren't carefully cleaned like the joint areas. A couple of replies off-list (thanks, guys) indicated that this is the primary problem with 'slosh'. The outboard skin is thinner than the tank skins & will flex enough to lift off the spar even with the ribs attached. I'm still tempted to just drill the rivets, lift the skin & 'recaulk' with regular sealant. It seems unlikely that it's effectively 'stuck' to the spar, since it's leaking along over 1/2 the length of the 3 bays that were closed up for fuel. Any thoughts on which is the better option?

    Subject: Re: pourable tank sealant??
    --> RV-List message posted by: Paul Trotter <ptrotter@acm.org> Charlie, I can offer info on the tank sealant, but not on how you use it for your problem. The are 3 types of tank sealant as determined by their viscosity. The common "B" type is the paste we are used to. There is an "A" type that is brushable, and a "C" type the is designed to be rolled on. I don't think Flamemaster makes a "C" version, however PRC-DeSoto (Proseal) does. You can thin the tank sealant. The proper thinner is Toluene, not MEK. The "A" version is basically the "B" version thinned with about 7% Toluene by weight. You can safely thin the "B" type with up to 15% Toluene by weight without changing the characteristics of the material. I would be careful using any other thinner, because while it may thin it, it may also change the properties in some way. You can buy most of the Flamemaster products from Sealpak (316) 942-6211. They carry most of their products in all different sizes and they have no minimum order.

    --> RV-List message posted by: Dave Bristol <bj034@lafn.org> Those FAQ's were for the 3600, not the "a". There were none for the 3600a. I would guess that they'd be the same for both, but maybe not. However, a friend contacted Garmin by phone and was told that it would not support an autopilot.
