    --> RV-List message posted by: "glen matejcek" <aerobubba@earthlink.net> Hey Brian- In my limited experience with neighborhood busybodies it seems that as much as they try to exert their influence on others, they themselves are not in compliance with the body of rules they are trying to enforce. Also, it sure seems like you have grounds for a harassment suit. I'll zip JAX a short comment in a moment, as well as stop by the Unison booth (and flag down T.P.) if we cross paths at OSH. I would respectfully an sincerely request that you all do the same. If 30, 100, or 1,000 folks grab Tom by the ear next week it might rearrange his priorities a little. glen matejcek aerobubba@earthlink.net

    Subject: Gear Socket Gusset for an RV-6 engine mount
    --> RV-List message posted by: Doug Gray <dgra1233@bigpond.net.au> Folks, I have purchased the gussets from Vans to re-enforce the landing gear socket of my old style RV-6 mount to prevent the cracking some have experienced. Parts are WD-672A-R and WD-672-L. My plan is to have these welded to the mount but I do not have a clear direction how they are positioned. Can someone point me to a clear photograph of the lower end of a gear leg socket. I believe these are fitted to all RV-6 and -7 mounts currently being shipped. Vans sent me two photos but they are not clear enough to pass to the welder. Thanks, Doug Gray Sydney, Australia

    --> RV-List message posted by: Dwight Frye <dwight@openweave.org> Try http://www.mcmaster.com/ In the "Fastening and Sealing" section on the main page click on "Machine Screws". Under the "Material" section of that page you'll see a link for "Black-Oxide". From there you have the option of selecting a pan-head screw and they do have them in 8-43 and 4-40 and various lengths. I just love McMaster-Carr. These folks have one of the best websites I have encountered for finding what they do and do not have in stock.

    I think you were asking Larry -not me- but my plan is to wait awhile. I have a 196 which I like a lot, but I always want the latest and greatest. Aviation Consumer says they are going to do a complete review of the 496 in their September issue. I also see that there are two levels of XM weather subscriptions now, one at $30 a month and another at $50. The $50 one seems to be for higher altitudes than we would typically be interested in. See: http://www.xmradio.com/weather/aviation.html Someone at one of the avionics booths at the Arlington fly-in told me that my wiring for the 196 won't work for the 396 or likely the 496. He said it was a different plug entirely. Terry _____ [mailto:owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of James Clark Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2006 2:25 PM So what is your plan???

    Subject: Garmin 496
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Larry Bowen" <Larry@BowenAero.com> I recently upgraded from the 196 to 396. The wiring is different, but not a big deal. I'm real happy with the change -- even with the recent news of the 496. We sorta knew something was on the horizon when the price dropped. The 196 is now used in the back seat. http://bowenaero.com/mt3/archives/2006/06/gps_update.html -- Larry Bowen Larry@BowenAero.com http://BowenAero.com Terry Watson wrote: > I think you were asking Larry -not me- but my plan is to wait awhile.

I have seen times, like over the Guadalupe Mountains, that no echos at all showed up on my 396, but I could see a thunderstorm visually and by the lightning data. Makes me wonder about the source of the radar data because I know precip shows up here on NOAA sites. It is a difficult area for radar coverage though.

    Its a lot better airplane than the SR20....compare the stats. It is much closer to the SR22 which is a lot more cash than that. I doubt very much I would sell mine for any less, there just aren't any better options for the money.

    I'll bet there's $80-$90,000 worth of work just in the panel. And if the builder was Paul Irlbeck, and I think it was, you couldn't have a better builder.

    Subject: Re: XM WX winds aloft not accurate
    --> RV-List message posted by: <bud27@bellsouth.net> For what it is worth, I've been flying the 396 for a year now (I was one of the first to get one) and I've been on the "$50" subscription ever since. I have found the winds aloft data to be as accurate, and in most cases more accurate than what Flight Service and Enroute Advisory Service will give you, from all altitudes from surface to 16,000 feet (most of my flying tends to be long cross country in excess of 500 miles one way between 4500-9500 feet). The only problem I had (as had most all of the early purchasers) was that the unit would not update as fast as it should sometimes...a downloaded (free) patch from Garmin fixed that problem. I heartedly endorse this unit...in my opinion it is the greatest single piece of equipment ever developed...a great GPS, and a weather display that is the next best thing to a weather radar, without the drag penalty or cost (and if you have weather radar, it gives you the ultimate weather picture).

    Subject: Nifty scale engines on display at DIA
    --> RV-List message posted by: "BillDube@killacycle.com" <billdube@killacycle.com> If you have the time at DIA (Denver International Airport) take a stroll along the bridge between the main terminal and concourse A. (Most folks take the train, and don't even realize the bridge exists.) There is a display of about 50 (maybe 100) fully-operational scale engines, mostly aircraft engines, some exact scale replicas, even one Wankel! The scale Continental 85 was particularly interesting. If you are just there for a connection, keep in mind that you will have to pass though security to get back to the concourses. (Ugh) Be sure you have enough time to marvel over these engines AND go back through security. They will be on display until September 10th. Bill Dube'
