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.

I am going to send the ordinance to the Today show in New York, because
as it is effectively written, it is illegal to build model rockets, RC
planes and kites for the kids, this is really going way across the line,
and we all need to stand up for this, regardless of the cause, the end
results penalizes all.

Wouldn't the ordinance also prohibit hot air balloon pilots from
transporting their craft to and from launch sites. There must be a
balloon pilot or two in the county who would be troubled by this.

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

You can't get to the part number online at Spruce (went through
this just recently). Someone helped me out on this list - try
searching the archive. If that doesn't work - let me know I
have the part number on an invoice at home which I can get for

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. IMHO.

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.

I have the $30 subscription for XM weather right now.
It's fine, but the $50 one would be nice mainly for
the winds aloft information. It is available on the
396, it's not just a 496 new item.

Home Depot, ACE, etc. Unless you have to worry about
ferrous metals, of course. I used SS ones and had no
issues with magnetic interference. The brass ones are
very soft too, and the paint comes off easily..

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.

The 196 and 296 have slightly different plugs. The 296 has 2 serial
ports and the 196 only 1. I haven't looked at a 3 or 496.

I think the $50 subscription is also real nice for the lightning
data. 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 just flew from Florida to Denver, Ohio, back to Florida. Liked everything
on XM weather except the winds aloft info was far from correct. Estimate it
was significantly wrong 75 % of time (so far off it was of no value). Used
altitudes from 3,000 to 11,500 msl.

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. That man knows what he's doing.

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).

Forecasts have never been reliable and never will be, and that is
what those winds are, they are forecasts. I think the strength of
the XM weather is the observed stuff, just like in the rest of aviation.

No. What it took was one neighbor with nothing better to do than complain.

Much as I detest governmental inferference with private property rights,
I can just picture it: Carport made from pvc sprinkler pipe and blue
plastic Harbor Freight tarps, plywood work table alongside the driveway
set up on two rusty 55 gallon oil drums, cheap noisy oil-less air
compressor running all day and night, rivet gun ringing, stench of paint
fumes sucked into the whole neighborhood's swamp coolers . . . and now
over 8 years into the project.
It takes a real nuisance to get a city council involved let alone a
county board of supervisors.

You can't get to the part number online at Spruce (went through
this just recently). Someone helped me out on this list - try
searching the archive. If that doesn't work - let me know I
have the part number on an invoice at home which I can get for
you tomorrow.

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.
