    Subject: Behind By 21% - Advertising May Be Needed...?
    Dear Listers, The percentage of people making a Contribution to support the Lists this year is currently lagging behind last year by approximately 21%! I'm hoping that everyone is just waiting until the last minute to show their support... ;-) Please remember that it is solely your direct Contributions that keep these Lists up and running and most importantly - AD FREE! If the members don't want to support the Lists directly, then I will likely have to start adding advertisements to offset the costs of running the Lists. But I *really* don't want to have to start doing that. I really like the non-commercial atmosphere here and I think that a lot of the members appreciate that too. Please take a moment to make a Contribution today in support of the continued ad-free operation of all these Lists: http://www.matronics.com/contribution I want to send out a word of appreciation to all of the members that have already made their generous Contribution to support the Lists! Thank you! Matt Dralle Email List Administrator

    Subject: 406 MHz ELT
    All of this discussion regarding mounting of the ELT antenna is very interesting and eye opening, but we -8 builders have one issue: There is simply no place on top of the fuselage to mount the antenna because the canopy on the -8 slides all they way back to the vertical stabilizer when it's open! As far as I can tell, this leaves only the options of mounting the antenna in the cockpit, or underneath the empennage fairing as others have done. Anyone have any other suggestions? How about in front of the canopy. On the wing, or on the fuselage side angled up at a 45 degrees. Recommendation: do what ever you want, it is your airplane. What I like about this list is we can truly beat a horse to death! Bob RV6 "Wicked Witch of the West"

    I hopoe I understand your question, you mean you do not believe that an ELT, SAVE LIVES?????? If you think does not, is not... then no sense on discussing this... every one has opinions and that is that.. JUst like in my family, I had tried for years to convince my sister how wrong she is, based on facts, every one else sees that, but she will never do... You can never change the mind of people, once they are with such believe etc... is a waste of time and energy, with no purpose. robert --- On Sun, 11/16/08, SteinAir, Inc. <stein@steinair.com> wrote: > From: SteinAir, Inc. <stein@steinair.com> > Subject: RE: RV-List: Re: ARTEX 406 ELT in a 7A > To: rv-list@matronics.com > Date: Sunday, November 16, 2008, 3:59 PM > <stein@steinair.com> > > This is a question I have that is really a question...and > I'm not trying to > be fececious....I truly want to know: > > Does anyone know of (or ever heard of) any pilot who > crashed and died whilst > awaiting a rescue - someone who lived through the crash but > died because > rescuers didn't get there?

    I have always said: Ignorance and stupidity, are not the privilege,or peopole on third world countries. It is abounding in the USA, not only on people with no highschool education, but in the upper ladder, even the President of the US, has shown stupidity many times... NO sense on trying to convince people, on something they already have created in their minds to be true... is a waste of time. robert --- On Sun, 11/16/08, Terry Watson <terry@tcwatson.com> wrote: > From: Terry Watson <terry@tcwatson.com> > Subject: RE: RV-List: Re: ARTEX 406 ELT in a 7A > To: rv-list@matronics.com > Date: Sunday, November 16, 2008, 4:34 PM > <terry@tcwatson.com> > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com > [mailto:owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of > SteinAir, Inc. > Sent: Sunday, November 16, 2008 12:59 PM > To: rv-list@matronics.com > Subject: RE: RV-List: Re: ARTEX 406 ELT in a 7A > > Inc." <stein@steinair.com> > > This is a question I have that is really a question...and > I'm not trying to > be fececious....I truly want to know: > > Does anyone know of (or ever heard of) any pilot who > crashed and died whilst > awaiting a rescue - someone who lived through the crash but > died because > rescuers didn't get there?

    Subject: engine dehydrator
    I remember reading a story about a homemade engine dehydrator that used an aquarium pump and desiccants. It was designed to reduce humidity inside the engine during long periods of non use. Does anyone know if that was in AOPA or EAA mags, or where it might have been? Thanks. Rick do not archive **************One site has it all.

    It was in Sport Aviation about a year or so ago. Bob From: Grenwis@aol.com Subject: RV-List: engine dehydrator I remember reading a story about a homemade engine dehydrator that used an aquarium pump and desiccants. It was designed to reduce humidity inside the engine during long periods of non use. Does anyone know if that was in AOPA or EAA mags=2C or where it might have been? Thanks.

    Subject: Plexiglass Scratch Repair...
    Dear Listers, During the fitting of the Plexiglass canopy on my RV-8, I managed to put some pretty disheartening scratches in the windscreen section. You can see from the pictures that they looked pretty bad. A call to Van's revealed that a replacement canopy would be $640 + $250 shipping to California! Ack. So what to do... A bit of surfing and I found this "Scratch Off" windshield repair kit for $35 on the Aircraft Spruce web site: http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/cspages/scratchoff.php Frankly, it just seemed too good to be true. Nothing for $35 could be that "magic" I thought, but what did I have to lose at this point.... Well, the kit arrived yesterday and I decided to give it a try tonight. In a word: WOW! In about 2 hours the windscreen looked as good as new - no kidding - AS GOOD AS NEW! The pictures really don't do the repair justice. It looks better in person. There are basically two sponges in the kit with four decreasingly porous pastes. You just put some of the first paste on the sponge and buff it in with a drill at 1200 RPM or less. Then you wash everything down good including the sponge and windshield with warm water. Then you use the next finer paste and repeat the process. Etc, etc, until you've used the 4th paste that is kind of like car wax. Frankly, the scratches were gone after the first application of paste - I started at #2 based on the instructions and the "observed severity" of the scratch depth. So, the bottom line is, if you've got scuffs or mild scratches in your Plexiglass buy this repair kit. It works! Matt Dralle RV-8 #82880
