| Subject: | Calaveras Air Fair |
On behalf of Calaveras County Airport I would like to say Thank You to
all who flew in to support our annual Airport Day community event. It
was a joy to see such a great variety of aircraft fly in and fly by! In
addition to the fly in aircraft Calaveras Airport is very pleased with
the turnout of local people as well; it is a great opportunity to show
the local's what our airport is all about. Around 200 people were able
to take a scenic $5 airplane ride around San Andreas, Angels Camp, and
New Melones Reservoir. Looking forward to the wonderful aircraft,
pilots, and crews flying in next year; Thank You again for visiting
KCPU!
A very special Thank You to the RV community for flying in. It is
always a joy to see so many RV's in one place, certainly more than 40
had flown in this year. I was asked by another RV pilot "Which RV here
do you like the best?" I could only say that each one was as beautiful
as the next and I am very happy flying my RV-6.

| Subject: | RE-AIRPARK LIVING |
To Dennis,Charlie,Carl, Ed,Lynn and All who responded so far..
Thanks a lot for all the good suggestions and ideas regarding Airpark Living.These
were and still are greatly appreciated,keep them coming.
To Dennis...
The Airpark is to be located at the Lachute Airport (CSE4 )
,north of Montreal (CYUL), which is a 4000' hard surface ,fully lighted with
a VOR approach airport.
The Airpark,so far, is to be a three sections developpement
with an only commercial hangars section, one with a mix a private hangars &
hangars-homes set up with finally an only hangar/homes section ( that the section
where the lot I'm looking at is located,it is the largest lot of them all
as a matter of fact ).
The only drawback so far is the type of hangar/house combo,
the developper is allowing. What they are planning on right now are hangar/ homes
looking like typical hangars ( corrugated aluminum exterior ) which is not
exactly what I was planning on building.I'm planning on something more '' highend
'' if you know what I mean....without going overboard.
The developper also mentionned that they are responsible for
the road / taxiway buildup but not the paving.The Airparks homeowners will be
responsible for the paving of the road / taxiways which is not a problem for
me as long as it doesn't take years to complete...My RV-4 has a composite prop
and doesn't like gravel too much..
We will be responsible for snow removal.
The zoning and restrictions have all been approved by the city
( which is behind the project 100% ).
Property and liability insurance will be at the owners expenses
but are a lot less complicated up here than they are down in the States....
I have pictures of the airport/ airpark if anyone wants to have a look, just send
me your e-mail and I'll send them to you.
Thanks again

Hello Bruno,
With due respect, we don't know enough about your airpark to allow us to even
begin to offer suggestions. The house/hangar layout will be determined after
consideration of airpark covenants and restrictions, local zoning, your
insurance company, hard surface or grass taxiways, snow removal
considerations, and careful consideration of your plot survey, to name but a
few factors.

| Subject: | RV8 gear leg fairing |
How did you all clamp/hold the RV8 gear leg fairing so
it would not slide down the gear leg? The plans leave
it to our imagination...

Sam, a number of different methods. What I did was use the fiberglass
fairing from gear leg to fuselage to hold the metal fairing in place.
Worked for 10 years.

I installed the hinge such that the fairing was snug enough to not move.
No other attachments needed.

I would be amazed if you needed to do anything at all. The gear leg
fairings are quite tight on the gear legs once the hinge pins are in,
and they can't slide very far before they would hit the bend at the
bottom of the gear leg. I'm hoping I can get by without worrying
about this.

I've gone without any method of securing the gear leg fairing for the first
125 hours. That fairing can't go far, even if it wanted to. I haven't seen
any evidence of movement.

| Subject: | Looking for electrical info |
Hello RV Builders and old friends:
This E mail is from John Caldwell. I am the original founder of Terminal
Town. I've been on hiatus for 6 years running the Electrical/Lighting dept.
for an industrial design firm that is a subcontractor to Boeing. I am proud
to say that I had a great deal of input into the new lighting systems that
will be used on the 787 and other Boeing Aircraft. (And no it is not my
fault that it is delayed.)
I am located in Everett WA. I am looking for a RV builder in the area that
is doing the wiring on his/her RV project. I would like to photo and video
his/her project. So, if you know someone or if you are at that stage in your
build. Please contact me at howtocrimp@gmail.com.
Many thanks and best regards,
John Caldwell
