Jim, I think that is fairly normal. My elevator will move smoothly up and
down and gravity will cause it to droop slightly - but its not as light as
minus the cable.

STC's don't apply to experimentals. Just delete the reference to STC's and the
aircraft referenced. Also, the FAA doesn't approve flight Manuals or Supplements
for Experimentals.
You need to verify that your GPS installation performs as required for IFR maneuvers
- gives correct lat/lon, data base and waypoints are synchronized to where
you are, that contained approaches are consistent with the paper charts, etc.
Then make a log book entry attesting to proper performance of the GPS, sign
it, date it, and include your repairman's certificate - much like you did when
you certified that phase I was completed and that your plane meets requirements
for night and IFR flight as required by your operating limitations.

Sounds just like mine and others with manual trim that I have noticed. How
could it be otherwise when you think about it, the deflection of the trim cable
has to add some small degree of "stiffness" to the system? It is not
noticeable in flight to me, and FWIW I am very happy with the manual trim.

I hesitate to chime in here ... but I have set up multiple Wikis, and
think they are a fantastic way to share group knowledge. You are right
that they are like a "dynamic FAQ", but are even more free-form than
that .. which brings unique value *if* the Wiki is an active one. If
there is enough interest I might be game to set up a Wiki.
Might there be real interest in this? Or is it one of those "sounds cool"
things that people won't *really* invest time/energy into? My experience
has been that if you get past a certain critical mass of activity, the
Wiki can have real value.
For one (huge) example of what a Wiki-like site can do, take a look at
http://www.wikipedia.com ... a dynamic group-effort online encyclopedia.
This is an amazing resource on the web, whether *we* decide we want a
Wiki .. or not.

Dwight:
I agree that a wiki is a good way to do it, and I know of some experienced
builders (and experts in related fields) who have indicated a willingness to
participate in such a project. I have been approached by them before but, not
having any experience with setting up a wiki myself, I haven't pursued it. I'd
really like to see this go ahead, though, and I would be happy to help if I
can. I would also be willing to host the wiki, if that helps.

Tedd,
I think having experienced builders (and other experts) willing to join in
and participate is _precicely_ the critical factor that has to be taken into
consideration. Without knowledgable input the site would be worthless. If
you have folks who have expressed interest, then I'm game to (can I be saying
this? don't I have enough to do already?) set things up.
I'd offer to provide some content ... but ... I'm still learning, and do
not feel like much of a "teacher" yet. Maybe with time and experience I can
have something to contribute. :) But I can do "geek stuff", and to that
end can contribute.
I think hosting isn't the big limitation. Reasonable commercial hosting can
be had these days for about $10/month. HOWEVER, the big help that you could
contribute is in helping create and organize content. Maybe I should go ahead
and snag a domain (rvwiki.org??) and set something up .. and we can use the
wiki itself to organize getting the wiki organized. If that makes sense. :)
Here is the thing I like about a wiki .. and it is the same thing that is
driving WikiPedia. It sounds like chaos having anyone and his brother just
putting stuff in willy-nilly. And, in the begining it is chaos to a certain
degree. However, over time as more and more people read/use/review the wiki
you get errors (and hopefully stupidity, urban legands, and old wives tales)
massaged out. In time, the most critical and high-interest items become
accurate BECAUSE they are critical and high-interest. Or that is the theory.
Seems to be working for WikiPedia so far.
Does this make sense? Should we take this discussion off-list so we don't
bore all the folks who don't want to hear geek-planning-talk?

There might well be a good fit here. A lot would depend upon available
resources on the host site. Ideally it would be a Linux based system
with support for PHP and MySQL. Can you shoot me (off-list, so we don't
bore the good folks here with geek-details) information about the host
environment?
Even if we don't co-host the services I think there is a lot of synergy
and linking between the two could well make a lot of sense. Lets keep this
possibility in mind as we figure out what we want to do.

| Subject: | Drilling EGT probe holes |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Jeff Orear" <jorear@new.rr.com>
List:
This is going to expose how lazy I have gotten, but here goes. I need to drill
the holes for my EGT probes and I have already installed and torqued down my
exhaust system.
Do you think it is a no-no to drill the holes with the exhaust on the engine?
Two things come to mind....First I will leave some burs on the inside of the pipe
and second, chips will fall into the exhaust.
The probe being secured by a hose clamp on the outside of the exhaust will make
the burs less of a factor. The fact that all the chips will fall down into the
depths of the exhaust and eventually be blown out on first startup makes me
feel a little more comfortable there.
So do I go ahead and drill or bite the bullet and take the exhaust off??

By chance, the Richmond, Virginia FSDO Principal Avionics Inspector was at the
airport for lunch today.
He said: Experimental Aircraft!! No FAA approved flight Manual supplement for
an IFR GPS is required for experiment aircraft. Just state in your certificate
that the plane will be operated IFR. You still need the altimeter/transponder
inspections.
Since it does not cost anything, I have down loaded the "sample" FAA approved
flight Manual supplement for the Apollo GX60 and will include it in my AFM.

flange protruding from the back of the vent so I can get the SCAT and a hose
clamp firmly seated. The ACS air vent only has a little shoulder around
3/16" long. Am I missing a piece? Neither ACS nor Aircraft Spruce has been
of any help.
Also, the mounting flange on these vents is curious. There are four
countersunk mounting holes on the flange, so it must be designed to be
mounted on top of some underlying panel. What's curious is that the back
side of the flange, the side that contacts the panel, is chamfered, not the
front side that you would see. Again, am I missing something?

WARNING!
I will be travelling to Creston B.C. tomorrow Thuraday the 17th and
returning to Kelowna Saturday afternoon.
I will be free to tour around the vicinity during that time. Are there any
aircraft homebuilders in the surrounding area that would help a roaming
stray RV6a builder find kindred souls for an hour or two?
I am willing to drive 1,1/2 hour or so from Creston on either side of the
border to get my aircraft fix {[;-)

You may remove the Ops Limits form the pink A/W cert. The A/W cert is the
only thing you need to display, although most people stick their
registration in the same pouch. The Ops limits and W&B can be put anywhere
inside the aircraft. Just remember that they must be on board the aircraft
wheneveits operated.

I have done it before. Unless your engine is upside down and chips will
fall into the engine I don't see a problem. I used a scraper that would get
inside the hole for getting the burs off. I was concerned about the thin
burr getting red hot, but it would probably just burn off and not be a
problem anyway.

This is going to expose how lazy I have gotten, but here goes. I need to

Do you think it is a no-no to drill the holes with the exhaust on the
engine? Two things come to mind....First I will leave some burs on the
inside of the pipe and second, chips will fall into the exhaust.
The probe being secured by a hose clamp on the outside of the exhaust will
make the burs less of a factor. The fact that all the chips will fall down
into the depths of the exhaust and eventually be blown out on first startup
makes me feel a little more comfortable there.
So do I go ahead and drill or bite the bullet and take the exhaust off??

Thanks Dale. I made sure of that when I located the holes. These probes
are from Rocky Mountain Instruments and have a 90 degree bend to them after
the probe exits the exhaust pipe. Makes it just alittle easier to avoid
things like the plugs.

Many planes stay in balance regardless of the gas and passenger load. What's
the point if you can't exceed the gross weight of the plane unless you have
a 400 pound passenger? Most pilot/builders have explored the math of Weight
and balance long before the first flight and know the passenger/gas limits.
They already know how large a person they can take for a ride with full down
to empty tanks.

That wasn't MY answer. That came from the "we're from the FAA and are
here to help you" ramp-check guy. And the only reason I had it in the
plane (wasn't there when I bought it!) was because I was, at the time,
working on my IR rating. I have no problem with your assessment of the
abilities of 99% of the folks that fly regularly. I'll bet that almost
1/2 of those that have been flying for, say 5 years .... will have
problems figuring a weight and balance!!! The guy that I get my
bi-ennial from loves that question!!!

I'm tempted, mine is grinding away slowly indicating turns and leaning in
level flight like a drunken sailor.
But the look I'm trying to hang onto in my panel is the '60's RCAF Tutor,
surely the trailing edge of technology by now, so I hope to find another
T&B.

Resist the urge....buy a new TruTrak Pictorial Turn & Bank. No grinding/spinning/whirring
Gyros in there! Plus, it's quiet and looks pretty neat too....
I didn't think they looked that neat until I had one in my hand and played with
it in my plane, now I swear by them. No going back to the old spinning gyros
for me. My Attitude indicator and DG are almost completely shot (from multiple
wifferdills, etc..) and I'm working on pushing them completely over the edge
here within the next month so I can get a new Trutrak ADI with both the Horizon
and DG in the same unit and throw my vacuum system far, far away!
I figure it'll take about 4 more cuban 8's, 2 hammerheads and 3 split-s's to completely
finish 'em off!
Cheers,
Stein
