    Subject: 406 ELT
    I believe its now clear that we will not be required to have the new elt, unless flying to canada maybe. I was wondering what the folks on here are thinking about installing, or not? At this time I am leaning to Not. I havent seen any good indicators that ELTS have saved any ones bacon. Do know of several times they have ben acidently set off, did it once myself but caught it after couple mins and notified tower. Charlie Heathco, Fayetteville Ar

    Subject: Re: 406 ELT
    Having pondered the dilemma, I'll probably go with a modified 406 Mhz PLB. I see no reason to install a 'traditional' ELT that, as Charlie says, doesn't add anything to the survivability. AFAIK, the traditional ELT May help find the bodies less problematic. But I said 'modified'. The only thing wrong with the PLBs is that they have no G switch, so I'll modify my PLB with a homemade G switch. If you already have the 'traditional' ELT, then I see no reason to change ...... the CAP will (may) find your remains, and if you survive the crash I think you should be able to get on the radio and call for help.

    Has anybody on the list ever experimented with dimple tape? Below you will find a link to an article written in sport aviation back in 98. They claim a 10 mph speed increase on an RV3 and half of the propeller noise. With the speed increase and noise reduction claimed I have to wonder why I dont see this on almost all airplanes...makes it a bit suspect. Still if it's real I would want to know...cheap speed mod.

    I won't install one. I have a 406 MHz PLB with integrated GPS. At some point in the future I will install an APRS system which provides exact coordinates when on and stations pick up the signal. A Spot system offers similar benefits using different communications links (satellite). Ron Lee

    Yes, I was suckered into trying it. I put it on the Warnke wood prop on my Rv6A and the max RPM which had been 2550 was now 2800 and he throttle wasn't even full open. The tape reduced speed to a dangerous level with significant handling reducing qualities. I took it off after one dangerous flight and threw it in the waste can where it belonged. The Warnke prop may be operating near stall normally and the tape put it over the edge, anyway the tape was a joint buy with another pilot who had poor results and stopped trying it also.

    Subject: Re: Hobby Air System
    I am using one right now. It takes a little planning in the paint booth for dragging the breathing hose around. I found it easier to tape the air pressure hose and the breathing hose together, limiting the tangle. The air does get a little warm if the breathing unit runs for a while. All in all I like the set up.

    I got the same results as John. I actually made a jig and dimpled the wood prop. The speed did go up but it was because the RPM increased just as John's did. Problem was that I was now over revving the engine and I didn't want to do that. By that time Sensenich came out with the metal fixed pitch prop for the 0-360 and I went with that. Better speed at normal RPM. Jim **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps! ooter)

    Looks like your fairley close to finishing, might want to complete it because, you can actually make money on an RV once its finished. Im thinking 10~20K range depending. Here is another thought,finish it, fly it for a year and then sell it, you can still make money that will have paid for all your flying! Your so close, you just gotta finish it! Have you thought about taking on a partner? I feel for ya.
