    From: "Chuck Jensen" <cjensen@dts9000.com>
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Chuck Jensen" <cjensen@dts9000.com> Doug, Your assessment seemed right on in every respect. Your closing statement was particularly succinct in stating they are a long way from being ready to sell engines. HOWEVER, it's never too early to take deposits!!! Chuck Do Not Archive Doug Rozendaal wrote... I wish them all the luck in the world and hope they are successful, but it looks to me like they are a LONG way from being ready to sell engines that fly.

I am applying the final touches and am hoping for a few more photos. One photo I would like is an RV obviously engaged in some demonstration of "fun" such as aerobatics. I'm trying to show in a photo that an RV is more fun to fly than a Cessna, and the audience is NOT composed of pilots. If anyone has any photos I could use for this, please let me know. -Joe

    Subject: Re: Manual Flaps?, RV-7
    --> RV-List message posted by: "LarryRobertHelming" <lhelming@sigecom.net> My flap motor was shipped in 2002 and it was not a bad one. It works perfectly. Took it apart also to verify. FWIW, in my building experience, I deviated from the plans only a little once or twice. Such deviations required considerable time to implement. My friend with an RV6 has manual flaps. He just about takes over the cockpit when he needs to lower or raise the flaps. It requires strength and room. Could be something to consider if you are a small or older person without good arm and shoulder strength or a big person requiring lots of shoulder room.

I'm aware that a servo arm needs a hole, although mine was drilled. I'm also aware that arms often need to be repositioned to fit the task. And the fact that reverse polarity to change motor direction is also common; though, as I remember, it can be done electronically with this unit. If I didn't have a clue about servo positioning to start with, I'd have first checked it's operation without the arms connected to the control surfaces, stick, etc. to avoid damage. What I'm reading here, is that you hadn't thought it all out, during installation & first use. But then you call it a piece of shit anyway.... <Well It wasnt easy, but I finally got it together. had to take the servo back out and drill out the arm atach hole because somebody forgot to do it.

    Subject: RV7 up elevator stop Hey gang, The drawing for the up elevator stop shows a piece of 1x1x1/8" angle cut down to 3/4x3/4 (except for the middle portion where the horn hits, which is 13/16"). I find that a standard piece of 3/4x3/4x0.125 angle will allow just a tad more travel than called for in the manual (~33 deg vs. 30 deg). Does anyone out there have any experience with this or know of any reason why this would be a problem? <style> <!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";} a:link, span.MsoHyperlink {color:blue; text-decoration:underline;} a:visited, span.MsoHyperlinkFollowed {color:#606420; text-decoration:underline;} span.EmailStyle17 {font-family:Arial; color:windowtext;} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style> <span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>Hey gang, <span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'> <span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>The drawing for the up elevator stop shows a piece of 1x1x1/8" angle cut down to 3/4x3/4 (except for the middle portion where the horn hits, which is 13/16"). <span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'> <span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>I find that a standard piece of 3/4x3/4x0.125 angle will allow just a tad more travel than called for in the manual (~33 deg vs. 30 deg).

    Subject: sub-panel construction
    --> RV-List message posted by: sportav8r@aol.com Those of you side-by-side (-6 & -7 model) builders who have installed your instruments and avionics on removable sub-panels, using the original panel blank as a Swiss cheese framework to hold the panels together: did you find it necessary to use the same thickness of sheet for the sub-panels, or were you able to go lighter? I'm at work, and I think from memory the RV-6 panel blank is .065" but it may be .080" - wondering if there's enough stiffness in 3 smaller panels to make them a gauge or two thinner and save some weight. I'm planning a gradual conversion in several iterations to e3nd up with all glass diplays plus an IFR radio stack, but always looking to save a few ounces here and there when making changes. What has worked for you guys? Thanks, -Stormy

Travel is limited to control the amount of pressure the part will experience at full deflection and when you are cruising along and a sudden wind change might cause you to take strong corrective action. Keep in mind, these planes are super sensitive and responsive within described limits. You want to yank on it the limit knowing you have it at 33 rather than 30 degrees??? You think maybe the DAR will not find this and therefore not issue your AWC? You think your insurance company will pay off if a crash occurs and was caused by the change? I hope I have given you a couple of good reasons to consider building the plane as the designer intended in this matter.

I'm aware that a servo arm needs a hole, although mine was drilled. I'm also aware that arms often need to be repositioned to fit the task. And the fact that reverse polarity to change motor direction is also common; though, as I remember, it can be done electronically with this unit. If I didn't have a clue about servo positioning to start with, I'd have first checked it's operation without the arms connected to the control surfaces, stick, etc. to avoid damage. What I'm reading here, is that you hadn't thought it all out, during installation & first use. But then you call it a piece of shit anyway.... <Well It wasnt easy, but I finally got it together. had to take the servo back out and drill out the arm atach hole because somebody forgot to do it. Then on <fire up it pulled the stick almost max left and ocilated like crazy, and corections were backward, no sweat, reading on I learned all I had to do was reverse <the servo. Ok did that, still on turn on it pulled the stick near max left, in fact if I put that much control in it would have done a fast aileron roll. Called for <help, Oh all you have to do is disasemble the control arm off the servo which instructions told you to glue on, then experiment with moveing the arm <around, crawling back in the plane and turning it on, then keep trying till it might miraculisly center itelf. Wow! What a deal! for only $1800, you can get <an almost working unit! All you have to do is spend couple hundred dollars worth of time and it might even work!!! What a peice of Shit!!!

    autolearn=no version=3.0.2 --> RV-List message posted by: "charlie heathco" <cheathco@gvtc.com> I appologise to the list for using the S word, I was in a state of major frustration. It has been clear to me for some time that I made a very GOOD decision to buy a flying plane. I can do anything with wood, not a metals man. In spite of 22 yrs in electronics and computer inst and repair, (ended in 1980, went into home repairs and building), I was also frustrated trying to work with connecting up those tiney wires! At 66 yrs old I should be flying and sitting in my easy chair, not messing with this stuff, but I am possesed with the need to understand and know how. I also take back the statement that I considered the trio is a piece of S. Jerry is a good and honorable man, I just happened to get a faulty unit. I very much appreciate the opportunity to be on this list, much good stuff goes on here. Charlie Heathco, Boerne Stage

BTW, the stock panel is 0.063. I also reinforced the cutouts in the panel with 3/4 X 3/4 X 0.063 angle to replace the lost strength and stiffness. I'd do it the same way again. Harry Crosby RV-6 N16CX, 118 hours

    Subject: Re: Mixture cable too short?
    --> RV-List message posted by: Phil Birkelbach <phil@petrasoft.net> It would be helpful to know whether it was the cable or the quadrant that is causing the problem. If it's the cable then you would need a shorter mixture arm on the carb / FI servo. If it's the quadrant then simply move the attach point further out (away from the rotation axis).

    Subject: Tax question about personal use on company owned plane...
    (not processed: message from valid local sender) --> RV-List message posted by: "Matt Johnson" <matt@n559rv.com> Hopefully some of you can give me insight on this issue. My company just bought an airplane as a benefit for me. I have to pay taxes for personal use time. My question is this. How do you determine the amount that an hour cost to determine how much I pay taxes on? If you base it on the total cost of ownership, then I can get really screwed and it is no benefit at all. If you base it on the cost of the plane flying for 1 hour, it seems fair. But my accountant seems to think it is on the TCO not the cost per hour to fly... If the plane cost $10,000 a year for all expenses, and it flys 1 hour, is it normal for the company to put a benefit of $10,000 on that employees paycheck as a benefit and have them pay $5,000 (or whatever your tax rate is) for the honor of that one hour of flight? - Matt

    Subject: Engine Overhaul Question
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Richard Bibb" <rebibb@comcast.net> I have a few questions for the engine gurus out there. All pertain to a Lycoming O-320-E2D. 1) What sort of sealer and/or lubricant do you use with the crankshaft nose seal? The Overhaul Manual calls for Pliobond No.20 but I can't find the stuff. 2) I got new bearings but am confused by the location of the holes for the locator dowells in the Crankcase halfs. The dowels in the case halfs are centered in the bottom of the journals but the holes in the bearing halves are offset from the center. This doesn't look right yet the part numbers are the correct part numbers. What am I missing here? 3) How does one reassemble one of these without the "Clylinder Hold Down Any help and advice on putting the engine back together is appreciated.

    (not processed: message from valid local sender) --> RV-List message posted by: "Pat Hatch" <pat_hatch@msn.com> Matt, I can probably help you...since this is off topic perhaps you will want to contact me direct. Basically, you could be imputed income based on SIFL rates (Standard Industry Fare Levels) published by the IRS. I can give you the references for your accounting department, but it would be helpful if your company is a member of the NBAA (National Business Aircraft Association). If so, you can get a lot of free information on personal use of aircraft from them. Also, the IRS has just published a ruling on personal use that changes a few things. Bottom line: you will pay tax on about the equivalent of first-class airline fare between the city pairs for personal use. The company can expense the cost for all trips where there is a business purpose. Just scratching the surface here...write me direct if you would like further info.

    (not processed: message from valid local sender) version=3.0.2 --> RV-List message posted by: "charlie heathco" <cheathco@gvtc.com> Thats an easy one Matt, just dont turn inany time for personal use. Back in the 70's when i was a computer equip fixer, thats what we did and the company new about it. Charlie heathco ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt Johnson" <matt@n559rv.com> <socal-rvlist@yahoogroups.com> Subject: RV-List: Tax question about personal use on company owned plane... (not processed: message from valid local sender) --> RV-List message posted by: "Matt Johnson" <matt@n559rv.com> Hopefully some of you can give me insight on this issue. My company just bought an airplane as a benefit for me. I have to pay taxes for personal use time. My question is this. How do you determine the amount that an hour cost to determine how much I pay taxes on? If you base it on the total cost of ownership, then I can get really screwed and it is no benefit at all. If you base it on the cost of the plane flying for 1 hour, it seems fair. But my accountant seems to think it is on the TCO not the cost per hour to fly... If the plane cost $10,000 a year for all expenses, and it flys 1 hour, is it normal for the company to put a benefit of $10,000 on that employees paycheck as a benefit and have them pay $5,000 (or whatever your tax rate is) for the honor of that one hour of flight? - Matt

    version=3.0.2 --> RV-List message posted by: "charlie heathco" <cheathco@gvtc.com> Richard sounds like you are in deep S. I can tell you that the front seal was replaced with no lub on my cherokee by A&P . You seem to be in to deep, save your butt and get help. charlie ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard Bibb" <rebibb@comcast.net> Subject: RV-List: Engine Overhaul Question --> RV-List message posted by: "Richard Bibb" <rebibb@comcast.net> I have a few questions for the engine gurus out there. All pertain to a Lycoming O-320-E2D. 1) What sort of sealer and/or lubricant do you use with the crankshaft nose seal? The Overhaul Manual calls for Pliobond No.20 but I can't find the stuff. 2) I got new bearings but am confused by the location of the holes for the locator dowells in the Crankcase halfs. The dowels in the case halfs are centered in the bottom of the journals but the holes in the bearing halves are offset from the center. This doesn't look right yet the part numbers are the correct part numbers. What am I missing here? 3) How does one reassemble one of these without the "Clylinder Hold Down Any help and advice on putting the engine back together is appreciated.

It had 120 since major overhaul...... I would have loved to used those guns. I pissed away $400 on a GFG 670 devilbiss yesterday, along with some other accesories........ I am going to hang up my old conventional spray guns. The 670 is half HVLP and half old conventional gun. Well it is supposed to spray a lot like an HVLP with the feel of the older guns, Guess I will see. If it don't work out, Iwill put it on EBAY and get out the old guns. They paint perfect, just too much over sparay for this day and age....... Take small cuts so you dont go too far at one time... Oshkosh...... I had a good time there. I went to Fond Du Lac every night to sing. I found a great place with good sound. Singing starts at 6 pm and goes until closing time. seven nights a week........ I was there every night I was there....... I cant wait until next year. I am taking Marilyn up in a month or so for a long week end... Will stay in a Hotel two blocks away and bum around down town F' D' L' in the day time, lots of small down town stores like there used to be, and sing at night.. I just about have her ready to do a duet with me........ Once she sings in front of a crowd, she will be hooked. It's like a shot of heroin in the jugular vein....... You just can't get enough of it....... Do you need help? say so......... Phil
