Fellow RV Drivers:
I took a trip to Aruba over the past 5 days in my RV-8. Good fun! I've put
pictures and text up on my blog:
rv-8.blogspot.com
Techie details of interest that I didn't add: with light speed ignition and
Whirlwind prop I'm doing 160 knots at 10,000 ft buring 6.7 G/hr or less. It
made for plenty of fuel margin for a trip like this. endurance is something
like 6:30 including a climb to 10,000.

I recently went to the Cayman Islands via Cuba. Your trip
was even more impressive.

| Subject: | Measure RUDDER Deflection (Swing) Angle |
Greetings:
Have my VS mounted to the work bench along with the Rudder attached. -Try
ing to verify the 35 degree travel on the Rudder to the Left and Right of N
eutral. -Seen no Archieves on how to measure the angle other than laying
the VS and Rudder on the work bench and using "Smart Level" to measure the
deflection in the Up & Down positions. -Must be "super simple" to measure
it, but for some reason the method is not evident to me (now).
Appreciate your help, - -Garey Wittich - Santa Monica, CA
