    Subject: Primer Question
    From: "Conti, Rick" <rick.conti@boeing.com>
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Conti, Rick" <rick.conti@boeing.com> I plan on ordering the same system. I'd be interested to know if the strobe wiring is 3 conductor shielded. Would you please let me know when you receive the system? Off line would be fine also at: rick.conti@boeing.com Thank You Rick Conti The Boeing Company office: 703 - 872 - 4602 cell: 703 - 472 - 8592 If you're looking for a cute saying....fuhgeddaboudit -----Original Message----- From: Scott Schmidt [mailto:sschmidt@ussynthetic.com] Subject: RE: RV10-List: Primer Question --> RV10-List message posted by: "Scott Schmidt" --> <sschmidt@USSynthetic.com> I ordered it though Van's. Scott at Van's confirmed that this was the correct system to order. I know it's a little early, but I want to get the rudder completely finished.

I'm using Akzo 2 part epoxy primer on my RV-10. Lots of discussion on primers. I based on my decision on the fact water based primers actually hold moisture. The Akzo is used by Boeing. What are your plans for external lighting?

Received my RV-10 kit October 4 and just closed the horizontal stablizer last night. Currently pacing myself at 20 hours per week to maintain relationships so I won't be the first RV10 at Oskosh. This is the kit I have been waiting for and have not been disappointed. I can't imagine building before match hole technology was available and would like to thank those earlier RV-4 & RV-6 builders because they kept Vans in business. I am using Sherman/Williams "DTM Wash Primer" for the inner surfaces. It is a one part, water base primer that is easy and light and recommended for aluminum. Since most of the metal surface is already corrosion resistant Alclad I opted for additional corrosion insurance rather than a total solution as with two step primers. Has anyone has experience with this product or information about its effectiveness in salt air conditions? Bill billderou@yahoo.com ---------------------------------

    From: Bill DeRouchey <billderou@yahoo.com>
    Subject: lighting
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Bill DeRouchey <billderou@yahoo.com> My lighting decision will be to bypass the rudder installation and go with wing tip only. This choice is colored from my experience with my Piper Archer. The tail light has been a source of problems over the years and the strobes provide a wonderful noise through the headsets letting me know they are working. The tail light installation has had problems with: 1) breaking the wire at the bending intersection 2) poor ground due to corrosion 3) need a ladder to change the bulb (not a problem with the RV-10) This will eliminate a wire run, keep the tail area quiet for the NAV whiskers, and provide a white light backup (better than nothing). I am dithering over a single power supply or one at each wing tip. Has anyone grinded through the logic on this decision? Bill --------------------------------- Free Pop-Up Blocker - Get it now

    Subject: Auto-Gas RV-10
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "DAVID BOONE" <david555@cox.net> O.K., I thought I would stir up some controversy with my first post. Is anybody else considering putting a Mazda 20B on there R.V.10. I know this is blasphemy, but the history and performance of the 13B crowd is beginning to get my attention. I have successfully used auto-gas in my 182 for many years and have about 600 or so hours using auto-gas on a Grumman cheetah prior to that. I want to use an engine that burns auto-gas. The 0-540 low compression engine I believe is 235 HP. The 20B is supposed to deliver about 270 HP using auto-gas. Let the fireworks begin. Thanks David.
