Sam:
I definitely agree that the 1000 is a very good unit. I really think that
my viewing problems stemmed from where I had it mounted. I did try various
brightness/contrast settings to no avail. Rather than make a major change
with my panel arrangement, I opted to try the 2000c.

It is very simple , just connect your vent line that in presently being
dumped overboard to the valve thats fastened to the exhaust pipe. The co
ncept is this, as the exhaust gas passes over the end of the little pipe
thats in the tailpipe it causes suction, just like those parts cleaners
that connect to a high pressure air line and have another hose that goe
s into a can of solvent. With the crankcase evacuation system the faste
r the motor revs, the greater the exhaust speed is and the greater the s
uction, which is perfect because the higher the motor revs the greater t
he blow by.

Hi Ken,
I have a 296 that I bought used on eBay from a fella who was upgrading. It
has worked flawlessly, really good readability in sunlight and
terrain/obstruction feature is nice. Currently selling on eBay for 1100~1200 many

Dear Listers,
I am ready to order a GPS for my Zenith CH701. My dilemma is what to
get. I have reduced the affordable units to three:
- Garmin GPS 296 $1,495
- Lowrance 200C $999
- AvMap EKP-IVC $1,495
Your comments are appreciated. If you have flown with any, please

From Cody one can climb to 10,500 and cross over Yellowstone, 90 nm. That is
high enough that it will not be too much bother as you see Old Faithful and the
other geysers. Turn south to Driggs, KDIJ, and dine on the patio watching
aircraft arrive and depart with the Teatons in the background. Restaurants are
also at Ogden.
EAA 407 is having a camp-in and breakfast at KWYS in August.
If you want to visit the Grand Canyon area you can continue on down the west
side of the Rockies past Salt Lake City down to St. George and the Moab Zion
area. If you want to cross back to Rock Springs, it is relatively low turning
east from Bear Lake, 1U7, to Evanston.

Gary,
Have you considered listing your 6 on eBay? I have had great
success with ebay for both buying & selling items large & small (several
airplanes and ~15 cars). The Trade-A-Plane website is subscription only
and really reduces your chances of exposing your 6 to the largest
possible buyer base. That is a huge price reduction and there may be no
need to take such a haircut if the plane was ever worth close to $90K. I
for one would love to see photos of your plane but can't on TAP w/o $. I
think the total cost to list the plane on ebay will be $50.00 and very
little more to relist if needed. Add another ~$25 if it sells. My last
vehicle listed on ebay had 2,400 visitors and over 200 watchers and sold
in 3 days. Just a suggestion.
Good luck,
Robin

My RV 6 is still available. It is listed online at the Trade a Plane
website for $95,000.
Besides what is listed in the ad there are a bunch of extras such as:
spare prop governor ( 50 hrs TT)
new complete ElectoAir electronic ignition systems with new wiring
harness for the plugs
Tail wheel
used fuel pump and magneto
Complete Lycoming service instructions, service manuals, parts manuals
and overhaul manual.
plus much more.
The aircraft comes with a complete annual at time of sale and I'm
willing to do the annual inspections for the next 5 years you just
supply parts.
Also I will spend 2 or 3 days with you going over the systems so that
you are comfortable with them, before first flight.
Also a complete flight check out is offered.
I will be leaving for our summer home around June 15th so now is the
time to make yourself the owner of a special RV6. The first person with
$75,000. will take it away.
Take care

I saw a posting on one of the forums where one was had for $690.00.
Not sure what the best price is now, but the bottom line is you can get them
for much less than they are commonly adverised for.

Ditto on the Airmap. If you're not going to pay monthly for weather and
want a great gps with terrain, this one is tough to beat.

While I am unfortunately far from being ready for RV transition training, I
think it is a very important part of the building process. I won't fly my
plane until I've gotten it, and I recommend that others take it.
I thought I should add a new page to my web site called Transition Training,
and populate it with info on all the people offering RV transition training.
Back when I started building, I think Mike Seager was the only one doing it.
But I know there are at least several more doing it now.
So, if you do RV transition training or know of someone who does, please
reply to this message with some basic info:
name of CFI and/or company
location
contact info
web site, if applicable
tailwheel or trigear
RV model
other info, such as your impression of the training, if you received it
If you don't know all the above info, just submit what you do know. Thanks
for your input. This will help all of us.

The collector is where al the exhaust pipes merge together and usually
the tailpipe is connected to it. It is also the place in the exhaust sys
tem where the exhaust gasses are flowing the fastest, thus giving the be
st results for maximum suction. As for your inverted system, my guess is
that the engine crackcase needs to breath so it won't blow out the cran
k seal, I would assume the crack ventalation system is the same for norm
al and inverted engines. Any one else want to chime in to either comfirm

Brian,
I heartily reccommend Jan Bussell for transition training. He is located
near the Okeechobee, Florida airport (OBE). I took my transition
training in February 2005 in his RV-6A. He also has an RV-6. After that
several hours with Jan, my first flight in my own RV-6A was almost a non
event. Everything was familiar with no surprises. I had not flown during
my 5 years of building except to get a couple of biennial flight reviews
in Cessna 152 and 172s. He is an excellent instructor. You can find out
details including how to contact him at:

Unfortunately, the VAF list is woefully incomplete. There are MANY more
pilots providing transition training now. I'm not sure how to round them
all up other than a "plea" like Brian has done. One example is Dan
Cunningham in Alabama who trains in a 9A.

I've created a new page with pointers to the VAF page, as well as additional
sources such as this one. If anyone has more, please email me about it.
I think there was someone in NC doing it a year or so ago, so if anyone has
that name, please let me know
Thanks,

Brian,
I heartily reccommend Jan Bussell for transition training. He is located
near the Okeechobee, Florida airport (OBE). I took my transition training in
February 2005 in his RV-6A. He also has an RV-6. After that several hours
with Jan, my first flight in my own RV-6A was almost a non event. Everything
was familiar with no surprises. I had not flown during my 5 years of
building except to get a couple of biennial flight reviews in Cessna 152 and
172s. He is an excellent instructor. You can find out details including how
to contact him at:

Unfortunately, the VAF list is woefully incomplete. There are MANY more
pilots providing transition training now. I'm not sure how to round them
all up other than a "plea" like Brian has done. One example is Dan
Cunningham in Alabama who trains in a 9A.

============================================
We shouldn't have to round them up. If anyone out there is giving or knows
someone giving transition training, please provide me their info and I will
add them into the Yeller Pages. That is what it is for.
I can't imagine anyone providing this important service (who presumably
would like to get even more business than they are currently getting) and would
not want to be listed in the most public RV listings possible.
