Dear Listers, The List of Contributors (LOC) is just around the corner! On December 1st I post a list of everyone that so generously made a Contribution to support the Lists. Its my way of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to show their appreciation for the Lists. As a number of people have pointed out in their Contribution comments, the List seems at least as valuable of a building/flying/recreating tool as a typical your magazine subscription! And how interactive is a magazine, after all? :-) Won't you take minute and assure that your name is on the upcoming LOC? Tell others that you appreciate the Lists.

All the $higher$ end fittings and hoses are reusable, and the fittings swivel to reduce stresses and installation hassles. The up front costs are similar to Aeroquip, but unlike Aeroquip the hoses don't require any special tools or talent to fabricate, and they should never have to be replaced. The only caveat I can think of is that if one installed the Teflon lined hose on the brake caliper, the lining could melt if you got the brake hot enough. I'm not sure if that's possible without a fire, though- FWIW- Andy Gold wrote: > Is there a routine time (in years or hours) that flexible oil and > fuel lines should be replaced, for no reason other than that they > have reached a certain age? > > Andy glen matejcek aerobubba@earthlink.net ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 05:05:25 AM PST US From: "RV6 Flyer" Subject: RE: RV-List: RE: hose options, was oil and fuel hose maintenance Standard industry practice is to replace hoses at overhaul time.

If it gets in a crack, crevice, overlap joint or other hideouts, it is highly corrosive. The Air Force has a ban on Simple Green for use with aircraft. Within the last few months, Simple Green has brought out an 'aircraft formulation' of the product, which supposedly will not aggressively corrode aluminum. An excellent cleaner but use with care and Read-the-Label to make sure you are using the correct one. Note: Even the old formulation, when used on open sections of aluminum and thoroughly wiped away, will cause no problem, but rivet heads and seams are impossible to remove all the SG.

I have heard (unverified) that Simple Green is not good for Aluminum.

You can put the bracket on any one of six ways. I don't know if that applies to all governors, or not.

I'm having a hard time estimating how long it is going to take to get the plane finished. My best guess is 3 to 6 months. Suppose I apply for and get the registration complete in 90 days (FAA says 90 - 120, though I've heard some guys claim it took them 6 months). Does the FAA care if 3 months goes by after they give me the number before I actually get my airworthyness certificate? -- Tom Sargent, RV-6A. ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 05:30:08 PM PST US From: Charlie England Subject: Re: RV-List: Searching for a self-etching primer Chuck Jensen wrote: > >The original formulation of Simple Green is definitely NOT good for >aluminum.

People seem to forget that acid etch is pretty corrosive to AL, too, if you fail to clean it off.

About 3 years ago, I purchased a license for truemap software. It was never used. It cost $595, and I presume that because it was never activated, the folks there will be kind enough to transfer this to anyone who wants to use it. (if not, I will take it back and refund the money.) I also purchased a Motion M1300 tablet PC, *with outdoor display*. the m1300 is almost the same thing as what they now sell as their LE 1600 tablet, though the latter has bluetood tech, and a fingerprint reader. the outdoor display is a *big* deal. w/o it, they are cheap. the tablet was also barely used, plus I have some accessories, like the extra keyboard---because I never ended up using the truemap software. finally, I have two USB GPS receivers. (they make sense, because a wireless consumes more power.) alas, I don't need the system any more. I may list it on ebay in a week or so. if you would like to purchase it, please drop me an email. not the smartest purchase I ever made... regards, /ivo ________________________________ Message 9 _____________________________________ Time: 08:42:00 PM PST US From: "Paul Rice" Subject: Re: RV-List: Prop gov. question Hey Dana, If it is the MT gov, just cut the safety wire, loosen the screws and set the arm at any angle you would like, retighten and safety wire.
