Sam,
I put two Comant, bent whip type, on the belly of my "8". I was told to put
them as far apart as possible to keep them from interfering with each other.
To accomplish this one is mounted on the center line of the fuselage just
aft of the main spar center section. The other is also on the centerline but
aft of the rear baggage area. Both are mounted on doublers on the skin to
reinforce those areas. After 100 hours all is well and my radios have worked
great. If you like I can send you some pictures off list. Let me know.
Hope this helps.

Sam, Put one on the belly between the gear and put a Rami type on top
of fuse aft of canopy. No problems with this setup and less shadowing.

I wish I had done this on my RV-6. I put both comm. Antennas on the belly
and I have no problem except with ground communications when my flaps are
down. The -6 is wider however and so spacing is probably less of a problem.
Flaps do cause a shadow for me at least.

The RV-8 canopy slides over the whole aft fuselage, all the way back
to the empennage fairing, so it is not possible to mount a comm
antenna on top of the aft fuselage.

What did some of you builders do where the
wing root faring meets the skin that extends from the bottom of
fuselage to the wing?
The holes provided in the wing root faring do not seem to
provide enough attachement points.

| Subject: | Re: AD INQUIRY - 2003 Van's Aircraft (RV Series) |
Thanks for your interest in my RV8A. Attached are some photos. To give you some
background info, I am the original builder of the airplane and it was built from
a quickbuild kit. It includes most of the kit options available -
rear seat rudder pedals & throttle, deluxe throttle quadrant and aileron trim.
It has been completely flight tested by myself and a friend who is an ex airforce
T-37 instructor. It has been spin tested and put through the basic acro maneuvers
- loops, rolls, cuban eights, emmelman turns, split S's, etc.
Engine- Lycoming IO-360 180HP. TTSN 700. The engine had a prop strike back in the
early 90's but was
compeltely torn down, inspected, and reassembled by Signature Aviation. A top overhaul
was done approximately 250 hours ago, due to low compression (valve),
and the need for oil impeller AD. While the engine was down, I decided to
replace all cylinders, valves, pistons and rings. The engine has a solid crank,
which is very durable, but precludes use of a hydraulic constant speed prop.
Prop - the prop was made by Craig Catto out in CA. It is a three blade fixed pitch
66" X72" unit.
Instruments Avionics - as you can see by one of the photos, the panel is pretty
basic, being designed for day/night
VFR flight. Avionics are: radio - Icom A-200, Transponder - Garmin GTX 327, TruTrak
ADI (combination horizon/dg), Navaid wing leveler and Grand Rapids engine
monitor.
Performance - Top speed 204MPH (average of four runs at 8000' at 75% power). Typical
cruise is 170MPH block to block at a throttle setting of 2400RPM. Climb
is around 2,000/fpm, a little better on a cold day.
Paint - done professionally by Rick Harris, Nashville, TN Top color is Lexus pearl,
bottom is metallic teal and the
"flash" begnins in gold metallic and gradually turns to tangerine metallic. Flash
is outlined in apple green hand
striping.
Hope this meets your needs. I can snail mail you a CD which contains many pics,
specs, etc., if you have the interest.
Thank you,
Walt Shipley
Chuckey, TN
P.S. The price IS NEGOTIABLE!

I have one of these Blue Mountain Efis-one units and it is amazing.
Sophisticated, updates are expensive but it sure is cool. Sure is a
let-down when I fly behind steam gauges these days.

What engine is it, do you have any details on what's included with it? You
can email me directly offline if you'd like.
