    Hi Eddy, Would you send this to rv list for me, this laptop is not configured right and is getting rejected when I send to rv list. I can receive fine. Dale RE: RV-List:YUMA, AZ Hi Yuma, and nearby Arizona RVers, We are departing Abilene TX this morning and will stop in Yuma. Trying to reach the nice builder there who said he would join visitors for lunch. We will check email on landing today and see if you are available. We had a beautiful ride from Ft Lauderdale, FL to Abilene yesterday. San Diego or bust! Dale & Barbi Cell 954-651-3000 ________________________________________________________________________

    01/30/07 Today @ 8:45 AM N-898SC RV-8 QB took to the air and flew just like an RV with a 0-360 and a hartzell prop. Left wing is a touch heavy but just a sweet flying plane. This kit was # 80533. The tail kit changed hands 3 times before I ended up with it. It took 3 hurricanes and one divorce to build. which is about 2.5 years Paint should happen before Sun-N-Fun by "Florida Aircraft Painting" in Bartow FL. Thanks to Duke Raven of Lakeland for bucking rivets. Thanks to Brian Parrish of Lakeland for his help. Thankyou Vans for a great aircraft. Sal Capra N-898SC Lakeland, FL.

    Well, no URL in that last message. I guess URLs posted on the Web interface using the URL command don't translate to the mailing list. http://minnesota.publicradio.org/display/web/2007/01/30/midday2/ Do not archive -------- Bob Collins St. Paul, Minn.

    Subject: Mounting throttle and mixture cables
    We are beginning to install the accessories on our Superior parallel valve O-360 that has fuel injection and a composite sump. In talking with Van's, they said they had no info on this configuration and couldn't offer any help on how the throttle and mixture cables are routed and mounted on the engine. If anyone has done this, I would appreciate any pointers or pictures you could provide Thanks, Jim Barrilleaux
