Subject: | Used RV buying best practices? |
I think a set of Best Practices for used RV pre-buy/purchasing would be
helpful. Has anything like this been compiled before? I'm thinking about:
Indicators of good construction (with photos)
Indicators of poor construction (with photos)
What to look for in the logs (good and bad)
What tests to do? (avionics, engine, etc)
Should an Oil Analysis be done?
What quirks to be aware of between models.
I think something like this would be very helpful to any non-A&P shopping
for a used RV.

Fellow RV Builders,
I'd like to make you aware that we are introducing a new flap
controller to our line-up of products at TCW Technologies. TCW
Technologies currently provides the Safety-Trim series of servo
controllers.
The new product, Intelligent Flap Controller IFC-1 will be featured
along with Safety-Trim at our booth at Sun-n-Fun. (booth N-96)
IFC-1 was specifically designed to drive the Van's Flap actuator and has
some key features not available in other flap controllers.
IFC-1 provides for simple wiring of Pilot and Co-Pilot flap switches and
provides Vfe protection to guard against accidental flap deployment.
All the details are available at
http://www.tcwtech.com/Aviation%20Products.htm
IFC-1 will be available directly from our web site or at Stein Air, Inc.
www.steinair.com
Thank you,
Bob Newman (40176)
TCW Technologies.

Thanks, Esten for the reminder.
I need to let you know that we won't be able to make it. I am currently
waiting to hear from the FAA about my recent physical. I don't expect
that they will beat the forcasted 6 weeks.
Best regards,
Richard Dudley

t so you can see it) go with you to inspect it.
