Subject: | Wow, Cool! New List Feature... [Please Read] |
Dear Listers,
By popular suggestion, I've written a substantial new code module for the Matronics
Email Lists system. Here's how it works...
During each November, I send out quite a few PBS-like "Please make a Contribution
to support your List" emails. Wouldn't it be cool if, once a member made a
Contribution, they didn't have to receive my support pleas anymore for the rest
of that year?
Well, that's exactly what I've written! Following this posting, anyone that makes
a List Contribution in 2006 will no longer receive my Contribution Pleas for
the rest of the year!
The best part is this not only applies to the Realtime distribution, but also the
Digest distribution! For those that have made a Contribution, the Daily Digest
email-version will be invisibly stripped of my requests as well! (Note that
my requests will still be present in the online versions of the Digests, List
Browse, and on the Forum site.)
For those submitting their Contribution by personal Check, please be sure to include
your email address along with your Check as this is what is used to determine
eligibility.
So, in a nutshell, here's how it works:
Make a Contribution = No more "Please Make a Contribution" messages!
How sweet is that? If that's not a great reason to jump on the Matronics Email
List Contribution site and make your donation today, I don't know what is!
Don't forget that there are some totally awesome free gifts to be had along with
your List Contribution this year!! Don't wait a minute longer to support your
Lists!
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
Thank you for your Support!!

Subject: | Re: RV-6 elevators needed |
I bought a wing kit 10 years ago from another unfinished rv6 project and an empanage
came with it. All I needed was the wing kit. (This was before prepunched!!!)
My rv6a has been flying since 02 and last year I noticed the cracks in my rudder
were getting longer. I tried to fit the extra rudder I had on my plane but
the hinges didn't line up.
You are welcome to try the elevators but chances are they may or maynot line
up.
Did you want the horizontal stab too?

Subject: | Re: RV-6 elevators needed |
The RV-7 elevators will work on the RV-6 HS. At least they did for me. I
did trim the HS tips an inch farther forward so the longer, lighter, RV-7
elevator tips would clear. (It's in the plans, so it wasn't a builder mod..
:-)
)
BTW, the RV-7 elevators are also used for the RV-8 empannage.
I've put RV-7 elevators on both, recently.

Subject: | RV Painters in Iowa and Minnesota |
Guys,
I have an RV-9A that could fly next summer if I don't
paint it first. I could paint it at home in our basement
before the 1st flight using the Stewart/Hangar 21 water-
borne, 2-part epoxy process. This would add another
year to the build process. Once I fly it I'd rather not
return it home for painting. There is no painting permitted
at the Rochester, MN airport.
Can you recommend someone in the IA/MN area to paint
an RV? I'm getting close to a crossroad here...
Many thanks,
Joe Connell

Subject: | Re: Spark Plugs & Repairman |
Charlie, I think that we're actually on the same side here, but maybe I
wasn't clear in what I was trying to say.
My point was that you DO need an authorization to sign off the condition
inspection and you DO need to know that the plugs are gapped correctly
to do so. My quote "this engine has been inspected in accordance with
the...." is from my oplims and is therefore "required". The Repairman's
Certificate is not about "repairing" it's about signing.
I would "Never, ever, encourage more regulation & further restrictions
on your freedom. "

If you are interested in a very high quality paint job, consider Wipaire
at S. St. Paul. They just recently painted an RV-4 for one of our local
builders and it turned out VERY nice.

Does anyone know where to find this latch. It's very simple and clean and I
would like to use it for an oil door latch. Saw it on a Micco a couple of
weeks ago. The link below is to a Fairchild Fasteners catalog but I can't
seem to find a source. Any help appreciated.

Subject: | Re: Airflow Performance fuel servo set-up (RV-7 w/IO-390) |
Bill:
The Airflow installation manual has several pictures of various
installations. If that is not available, give them a call or an email,
there are more pictures available from them. The servo controls would
normally be connected with threaded rod end bearings.
Incidentally, I just returned from attending the Airflow Perfomance
two-day "Fuel Injection 101" I think it is an excellant value and was
well worth the trip.

w/IO-390)
Hello All,
If anyone has any pictures of the throttle and mixture cable
connections to the fuel servo, please send them my way. I am also trying
to find a source for the cable end B-nuts that will fit through the
linkage arms on the fuel servo or similar hardware for this purpose
(Aircraft Spruce doesn't have). I have rotated the fuel servo 90 degrees
that allows both the mixture and throttle arm linkages to be positioned
slightly lower than the sump. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Best regards,
