    Subject: Re: mogas
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Ed Anderson" <eanderson@carolina.rr.com> Larry, AirNav.Com has a Fuel Price program. You can use it several ways. But, it also includes a function that enables you to input your departure and arriving airport and specify either the fastest or cheapest route. You can also specify some parameters such as max leg distance, etc. It will then compute up to 10 routes and give you how much you would save (I presume over the average price along the route) each route as well as the distance of each route, etc. Worth using, but as others have said, sometimes the fuel prices and availability are not up todate so you should call ahead.

If you were wondering if Mode S was a lost investment, this may help. -----Original Message----- From: pipercherokee@yahoogroups.com [mailto:pipercherokee@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of paul k. sanchez Sent: Friday, January 27, 2006 7:30 PM Subject: [pipercherokee] FAA list of TIS (mode-s) broadcast sites as of 20 January 2006 Got this list from Rebecca Trexler (rebecca.trexler@faa.gov) at the FAA public affairs office. It shows 115 broadcast sites (each 55 nm radius for TIS) as of 20 January 2006. And still 97 broadcast sites after year 2012. But without the Garmin GTX330 you can't get the TIS on your Garmin MX20/GNS430/GNS480/GNS530 or Avidyne display.

    --> RV-List message posted by: "Bob C. " <flyboy.bob@gmail.com> Thanks Skippy, An interesting article for all to read! I actually made the comment somewhat "tongue-in-cheek" . . . I have a 1940 Piper J4-A that I have to hand prop . . . if I get hurt . . . who do I sue . . . how long is long enough . . . there are financial and personal risks when you mess with airplanes . . . It does seem to me the we pay a lot for FAA Certification for less benefit than the cost . . . but there are few guarantees that cover you after you get down the road a ways! I'm lucky . . . my ECi cylinders (on my RV-8) are the more recent "Titan" version and are unaffected by the AD . . . but who knows what tomorrow may bring??

    Subject: Service variations - Intercom
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Nic" <Nic@skyhi.flyer.co.uk> Over the period of nearly two years I have generally been very impressed with the high level of service from Vans and other American suppliers. Best of all was Hooker, who when told that I was in a rush to get my RV8 flying for its test programme, initially quoted me 10 days to make my harness selection. However, they pulled out all the stops and made and despatched my choice of harnesses so that they arrived here in England just three days after the order was placed. Absolutely fantastic. At the other end of the scale, Aircraft Spruce. I recently ordered a new Sigtronics 200S intercom and face plate from ACS and asked for special delivery. I was told that the goods would be despatched by the end of the week in question. A week after that I was concerned that the intercom had been mislaid in transit so I rang to get a tracking number. After five international calls and several emails I was told that the goods would take up to another few weeks as Spruce would have to place a minimum order of 3,000 dollars with Sigtronics. They didn't have the courtesy to let me know the situation and left me completely in the lurch - the worst service in the last two years of building my RV. I don't think that I can place the order directly with Sigtronics - so I am at a loss as I urgently need a suitable 2 place intercom with a face plate that will fit a 21/4" hole in my existing panel - any suggestions please ? Thanks, Nic

Hi Nic, There seem to be a lot of people that sell sigtronics stuff: http://www.sigtronics.com/air/dealer.html At the bottom you'll find web sales companies. Not sure which model you are looking for, but if you are flexible, you might check with http://www.steinair.com/ for a PS Engineering intercom. He's a good guy to deal with. -- Mickey Coggins http://www.rv8.ch/ #82007 finishing do not archive

You can buy a small kit, that contains various cheater rivet sizes. There is a structural limitation to these rivets due to the smaller head, so it's something to keep in mind, as I don't know how many holes you need to fix. Somehow when I read "Drill all rib attach holes to #30" I drilled the holes on top of the flange of HS-702 (that connect HS-708) too. My skin (HS-601PP) is drilled to #40. The plan says use a "AN26AD3-4 to HS-601PP to HS-702 to HS708" This can't be right! Any suggestions on how I can fix this dilemma?

    --> RV-List message posted by: "David Carter" <dcarter11@sbcglobal.net> Someone else asked about scratching the canopy: . . . If visor is down in front of you, then a piece of soft leather or similar on top of helmet protects canopy. . . . If visor is up, then it will contact canopy - so, one might want to put a bit (1 foot square or diameter) of "cling plastic" on canopy above where your head will be. Lots of folks already have sun barriers above them, which would protect the plexi. Brian, my helmet simply has a snap on each side for attaching the elastic strap on the visor. I can unsnap the clear and snap on the colored visor when needed. I use the clear most of the time, for bird protection, with sunglasses underneath when needed, so don't really need the tinted visor. In combat in 1967 up "north" in Package 6, one day I told myself the visor was bulletproof - I no longer suffered anxiety rolling in on a heavily defended tgt. Prior to that I worried a bit about a 37 or 57mm in the face. Piece of cake after I put on my bullet proof visor. Now the biggest threat is buzzards, snow geese, and other large "mm" birds. Visor is real protection in event of a birdstrike, not just make believe. I just had 3M tinted window film (thin sheet of plastic) on my windows on the Gulf Coast last summer - makes the windows rather "hurricane proof". The website tells of a company putting these films on windows of a mobile home "office" at some petro-chemical plant construction site - 3 days or so later, there was a big explosion - trailer was blown over on its side but windows were intact. . . .

    Subject: Re: Liability Insurance.
    --> RV-List message posted by: "LarryRobertHelming" <lhelming@sigecom.net> There is no such thing as best rates. You should have liability insurance IMO. Rates vary with your recent experience in like type. It is very uncompetitive. You go with what ever you can live with as far as their qualifying conditions dictate. That is what I found six months ago. I am not unhappy in saying this. It is just the way it is. I flew the first 40 hours without insurance because I would not spend a small fortune to meet their qualifying conditions. I flew carefully when good conditions were present. My first flights were from a remote airport with lots of farm ground around it. And flat terrain. I did not fly into Oshkosh, for example. Anything we can do to minimize chances of filing a claim reduces everyone's cost as I see it. From my perspective the cost of insurance seems higher than it should be. However, The insurance companies know their costs in writing coverage and I do not. Too many lawyers is part of the problem maybe. But that is the way it is. So, Fly safe. do not archive.

(I hate the numbers on the instructions with no name; I've got really short memory with part #'s.) Assuming adequate edge distance & dimples on everything, the simplest thing to do is drill the skin #30, dimple, & use an426ad4-4 rivets. Buck carefully on the thin skin, but it should work fine; some of the older designs use ad4's for skins.

    --> RV-List message posted by: Jeff Point <jpoint@mindspring.com> Yuo are correct. The general rule for riveting is that the shop head goes on the thicker material, unless the plans indicate otherwise. Jeff Point RV-6 Milwaukee > > > > > > > > >

    --> RV-List message posted by: "Jim Jewell" <jjewell@telus.net> Hi Dan, Riveting the shop head on the (thicker) stiffer structure is the preferred way to go. Putting the shop head on the thicker material avoids or reduces local area distortion that might occur on the thinner material, You might occasionally find it won't work out that way due to assembly stages or access with the rivet gun or bucking bar. The forward, aft, top and bottom orientation consideration is used more in reference to nuts and bolts etc. Supposedly if the nut or lock pin, clip etc, falls away, the bolt will remain in place a while attempting to do it's job. {[;-?
