    Subject: Good People
    --> RV-List message posted by: <rvjoe@cox.net> Just a note to say a public Thank you! to a fellow RVer. I am not one to participate in the posts on forums. In fact this is my first post ever to the list. However I read this list every day (have for years) and I make annual contributions to it. I felt compelled to send this post for the people in our community to know about this nice guy and to see that there are still good people out there. Actually I say that, but in our community there are a lot of good people out there. It seems rare though in every day (regular) life. I bought a used Apollo GX60 GPS/COM from Sarasota Avionics. When I received it and subsequently installed it in the panel in the RV6 that I am building, I powered it up and discovered that the previous owners information was programmed into the radio. There was the name, address, phone number, airplane type and N number of the airplane of the previous owner. Ironically the previous owner has an RV7A. His name is Scott Rosenberger. He lives in Baltimore, Maryland. Anyway because I am the new owner of the radio, I wanted to program in my information. In order to get into the owner information area, you have to put in the password. Since I bought the radio used, I did not have the password. I called Sarasota Avionics and they didnt have it either. They suggested that I call Garmin AT and see if they could help me reset it. Rather than do that I decided to call the number that was listed in the Radio in the owner information area (not knowing if it was still a valid phone number). Scott answered. I told him my name and that I am building an RV6. I told him that I bought this radio used from Sarasota Avionics and he must be the previous owner. He said that he was and that he did an upgrade on his avionics with Sarasota and traded in the GX60 as part of the upgrade. We had a nice conversation about building and flying RVs and about his new avionics. He put in a GNS480, MX20, etc.., etc Scott gave me the password for the radio. He ask me if I had a manual for the radio. I told him that I did, that I downloaded it from Garmins web site and printed it out. He said that he still had the original manual and wanted my address so he could send it to me. I told him that I appreciated the offer, but that I could just use the one that I printed out. He wanted my address anyway. I gave him my address and about a month later I received a package from FedEx. I was not expecting anything and I was curious as to what might be in the bo x. I opened it and found the manual for the GX60 and a really neat power supply with 9, 25 & 37 pin connectors for powering up the radio on the bench. There was no note and his name was not on the package anywhere. It took me a minute to figure out where the package came from. I finally remembered my conversation with Scott a month prior. Fortunately I saved his number, so I was able to call to thank him. The first few times I called he didnt answer and I got his voice mail. I didnt leave a message because I wanted to thank him real time. I finally got a hold of him on the phone two days later and thanked him. I told him that it was a very nice surprise to receive his package. Scott said that it was no problem and that he wanted me to have the manual and the power supply, as it was useful to him to power up the radio at home to practice using it outside of the airplane. Needless to say, I am very moved by this gesture. I asked Scott if by chance would he be going to the LOE FlyIn this year. He said that he is and that he went last year as well. I told him that I am going also and I hope to see him there. BTW, Scott said that his airplane (paint scene) looks a lot like the Vans factory RV7(a). In case anyone who doesn't know him maybe will recognize the airplane. Thanks again Scott!!! Joe Radford Peoria, Az RV6 & (still building)

    Subject: RE: Condition Maintenance Inspection
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Duane Bentley" <dbentley@fuse.net> Thanks for your responses, but let me clarify. I taxied my prop into the tip of a taxiway light on Saturday. One blade tip has small impact and will need rework/repair. The insurance company sent out their standard form, including a request for a copy of the Engine Logbook page and Aircraft Logbook Page that shows the last Annual Inspection. I've recorded the Condition Maintenance Inspection wording in the Aircraft Logbook each time, as recommended by the FAA, but never duplicated the wording in the Engine Logbook. Duane

    --> RV-List message posted by: "LarryRobertHelming" <lhelming@sigecom.net> I have not had this problem, but I believe there is some sort of insert/sleeve that goes inside the plastic tubing that gets press fitted when tightening it together.

    --> RV-List message posted by: "Greg Young" <gyoung@cs-sol.com> I know it will run on the HP4705 Ipaq 'cause they used it in their demo at SnF. Probably needs a hi-res PDA like the 4705 though. I was very impressed with the MountainScope product and the folks behind it. They exude the same kind of quiet technical competence I see from Greg Toman and Grand Rapids. I'll likely switch to them if I talk myself out of the 396.

    Subject: Re: Condition Maintenance Inspection
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Mike Robertson" <mrobert569@hotmail.com> Keep in mind that inspections and maintenance entries are two different animals. But a condition inspection is about the entire aircraft, not just the prop or the engine or the structure of the aiframe, therefore the entrie is in the one log that covers the entire aircraft. Keep in mind that the engien or prop may go away but the airframe log stays with the aircraft its entire life, thus the reason behind the condition inspection only needing to be in the airframe/aircraft logbook.

    --> RV-List message posted by: "Mike Robertson" <mrobert569@hotmail.com> True. The regs don't say which form the lgos must take, just that a maintenance or inspection entry must be made and kept for a period of one year or until superseded. In this case what is the wise or prudent thing to do may differ entirely.

    --> RV-List message posted by: "Mike Robertson" <mrobert569@hotmail.com> Duane, Again the condition inspection entry is not required in the engine logbook by the regulations or, more properly, the Operating Limitations given to the aircraft at the time of the initial certification. Many people put and entry in the engine logbook as to the finidings and inspection results, but it is NOT required. If you have any questions please feel free to call me at (503) 615-3237.

    --> RV-List message posted by: "Mark Burns" <burnsm@cox.net> Duane, Did you find your problem? Mark DO NOT ARCHIVE -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Duane Bentley Subject: RV-List: RE: Fuel Flow Anomoly --> RV-List message posted by: "Duane Bentley" <dbentley@fuse.net> Thanks for the responses. Yes, I had the same fluctuations at 2500 rpm in cruise that I saw at 2400. Don't think it's the fuel flow transducer, since the other two parameters are also telling me there real engine response issue. I have a throttle quadrant with a pretty good friction lock, so I don't think I'm picking up a vibration that is moving one of the cables. Again, why only at cruise with mixture reduction? By the way, I did have those magnets drop off the FAB Box flapper door about a month ago. (Not a great retention design). I got some new ones and glassed them in place, so the door isn't flapping for sure. An electrical problem . maybe, but I don't know how to isolate it as in intermittent problem that doesn't appear during take off, climb, or descent. Don Rivera also tossed the CS prop governor as an issue into the ring. Is the prop cycling the engine, causing the MP and therefore fuel to cycle? That is also difficult to trouble shoot. Again, why only at cruise? The suggestion of reverting back to the old crankcase breather tube can be done without a major problem. I'll give that one a try on Saturday as well. So you can see why I'm welcoming any input. Thanks Duane

Anything at Love itself, possibly? Would prefer a hangar, but secure is the main concern. Myself and some local buddies might decide to evac 3-4 planes tomorrow or thursday. Would want to fly SWA back to HOU as soon as the planes were relocated, then pick back up a few days later. Thanks in advance. Bryan Jones Houston
