>>>>>>>I think somebody did a WHOLE messa drugs during the 60's and is still
continuing to have flashbacks.>>>>
Now hold on here, the 60s were not my fault, I wasn't even here most of the
time; I was hanging out in the land of the egg people and the grasshopper in
the three piece suit kept chasing me all around trying to make me eat soy
bean and peanut casseroles.
However, I did learn a lot about flying aerobatics during that period of my
life.

I agree with Konrad but FWIW ........I have been very pleased with the
O-360 purchased from Aerosport Power. Now has 179 hours. Needed to

Hello all,
I'm at the point on my RV-4 project that I have to cough up a wad of
cash & buy an O-320. I'm contemplating purchasing an experimental engine
from one of the following: Van's, Mattituck, or Aerosport. I live about
20 minutes from Matittuck, so I'm leaning in that direction, any
thoughts?

Perhaps the other reason would be *final cost*... I'd get a bid from
each of the many engine builders and shop around for what you really
want. I don't know what the sales tax situation is like in L.I.,NY, but
it may even cost more in sales tax alone then what it would cost for
getting a Bartized Lycosaurus shipped from Canada. Aerosport Power has
certainly earned themselves a stellar reputation (not to put down
Mattituck, PenYan, LyCon and the various many other custom shops). Your
call, but I would simply visit Mattituck to see what they would have in
store for you, and then compare apples to apples... Good Luck!

Just to throw a wrench in the deal, I have from some builders that the
import of goods from Canada triggers their local tax authority and they
have gotten hefty bills. In our case, the state of OK passed HB1577
last year exempting all aircraft parts/repairs from sales tax to the end
user. I have a customer in another state whose friend is over tax
collection, and there has been discussion that the state he resides in
may not be able to collect tax on his engine because of our state
doesn't tax anyone, including its own residents for aircraft parts. If
you have an accountant, you could always ask them to write the tax
commission for a ruling on the taxability of the item by giving a
hypothetical situation.

Another important thing to consider is the warranty. I went with Aerosport Power
for a variety of reasons but the deciding factor for me was the warranty.
It's associated with the first start rather than with the purchase date.

Bert, I think you will have to raise your threshold in order to purchase
ready-made fairings.
I have been flying the TeamRocket fairings for several years:
http://www.teamrocketaircraft.com/TeamRocketAircraftcgi/hazel.exe
Their fairings are $150 for the set but you must use their gear leg
fairings. Here are details of my installation:

Can you be more specific? Are you talking about the pants, leg fairings AND
upper & lower intersection fairings? Plus, I noticed you are one of the smart
guys like me with a nosewheel (uh-oh!!) which means three of everything,
basically- I think you could spend almost that much just for tools & material to
make them all-
Other wise, can some one tell me how difficult would be to make my own.....
If you are a masochist, that helps. There are those who actually "enjoy"
delving into the black art of fiberglass, but IMHO they retire to padded rooms
in
the evening. 8-) Seriously, unless you already know how to work this
stuff, you could spend a great deal of $time$ learning the mysteries of
fiberglass. But if you have the patience and time, you could sure get all the
information you need off the Internet. Browse these publications offered by The
Builders Bookstore:

(http://www.actechbooks.com/airframeCOMPOSITES.htm)
Even buying the parts offered by Van's, Fairings etc. and Team Rocket (among
others) will result in much time spent whipping them into useable condition.
If your personal standards for fit/finish are particularly high, you will
spend much, much more time. I have used components from all of the above and they
are all OK if all you want is OK- if you want exceptional, buy from the same
places and plan on a lot of shoptime fine-tuning each part. My personal
experience is that the offerings from the latter two are pretty darn good-
especially that upper nosewheel fairing from Fairings etc. that was an almost perfect
fit right out of the box- (Thanks, Bob!)

My suggestion is either forget about using them and the significanty
speed
penalty that you will pay OR
Pay the price and be done with it. Don't make a few flights if you have
to
to "pay" for the cost.
OR
Place a WTB ad somewhere and hope that someone wants to sell theirs

How many hours do you think it would take you to do it yourself?
If you paid yourself $25 an hour and worked for 6 hrs I would bet that
you would not have the first fairing made. Oh and by the way, you will
still have to pay for the supplies. You want 5 fairings for $150. Ha ha ha!
It's all in the way you look at it.
I spent 4 hrs. putting the hinge in one main gear leg fairing today. I'm
sure glad my intersection fairing from Bob are on the shelf. I tried the
upper one on and it fits great :-)

Aerosport, hands down. My next, middle, last, er..all engines will be from Aerosport.

I've heard nothing but great things about Aerosport, but no experience
with them or any other. I'm a long way from needing things that go
vroom ;)

| Subject: | Gel Coated Fairings |
Greetings:
Have an "older" Emphennage Kit (circa 1999) that came
with Gel Coated F.G. Fairings.
1) Do the "newer" Kits from Vans still come with the
Gel Coated Fairings ?
2) My understanding from reading the Archieves is
that the Gel Coat is used over Polyester Resin F.G.
parts and not over Epoxy Resin F.G. Parts. Is this
true ?
3) Is it worth buying from Vans the "newer" NON Gel
Coated Fairings (assuming they come that way now) than
trying to work with the existing Gel Coated fairings
that I have ?
4) What is the purpose of the Gel Coat - mold release
?
5) What Grit / Method used - would you recommend to
take off the Gel Coat (and not digging into the F.G.
weave) ?
6) Is it recommended to remove ALL the Gel Coat down
to the F.G. weave so that any "flexing" of the F.G.
fairing will not crack any final Top Coat of paint in
the future ? [My Fairing on the TOP of the VS will be
removable for access to the VOR Antenna - should that
be necessary and could flex during removal and crack
the Top Coat of paint.]
7) Any helpful HINTS on getting a nice Fairing / Skin
edge line where the Fairing meets the Skin and still
keeping the Fairing removable ? [Will be using #6
Screws into Nutplates riveted to the F.G. Fairing]
Appreciate your helpful inputs,
