We use clear tape (scotch tape, if nothing else is available) all the time,
either when back riveting or on the rivet sets. It works great. Masking
tape does not do as well on the sets from our experience, and it obviously
won't work well for holding the rivets in the hole unless you are back
riveting on the plate because you can't see the rivet. We use Thinner to
get the residue off.

I have found great results using 2" packaging tape to cover and protect
skins while riveting. I started with a tip from Randy Debauw using the
packaging tape to cover the head of the swivel headed rivet set. Then I
decided to try packaging tape on the skin for holding and (setting
protection), works great. Anyone doing this? I use SOLVE cleaner by SEM to
wipe the skins when complete.

I'm having an approx 18 gal aluminum tank welded up that will go behind the back
seat, with the forward side at the angle of the seat backs to nest right behind
the seats. The tank is 14 in. high, 15 in. at the bottom,8 1/2 in. at the
top, and 30 in long. It will be easily removable, and will fit thru the baggage
door. The tank is pumped thru a Facet, anti siphon pump located just above the
tank into a T at the feed line from the left tank. I'll feed off the left tank
until there is room to pump aux fuel back into the left tank.
For me, this feed method is preferable to a three position valve that must be selected
thru "aux" every time you switch tanks. I have also added two extra ribs
in the baggage floor to allow for the weight, and provide aft anchor points
for the hold down straps. The pilot shall have to bear the responsibility of
an aft cg consideration that will move forward during fuel transfer, but the
plan is to use the tank for long 2 pax flights, with lots of bags in the rear
seat footwell area, as we travel from our home on Vancouver Island to Alaska.
The potential for a crash with fuel in the cabin is a trade-off for the safety
of extra gas over inhospitable terrain, in iffy weather, with few alternates.
I will post pictures and plans after I've completed the install.

--> RV10-List message posted by: "John Gonzalez" <indigoonlatigo@msn.com>
Being out of the power seen for some time, I am wondering how common it is
to have a fight computer instrument that can calculate your current
position,altitude, airspeed, wind direction/speed and distance to nearest
landing spot. Obviously calibrated to your aircrafts fpm sink rate in calm
air with the power out and propeller in flat pitch.
Is this something that is common in most units or not...if anyone knows of
some units with this capability, I would like to do some research.

John,
I have had instruments that fought back (Spellcheck, table 2!) at times!
Seriously though, I carry a Garmin GPS296 with me (I don't own, I
rent... :( ) and it does what you say fairly well. If there's an issue
(and haven't been keeping track of my own position like a good little
boy) I just hit "Direct To", then "Nearest" and a list of the nearest
airports appears.. pick one and hit "Enter" and it guides you to it and
provides any frequencies you might need. (You enter your aircraft info
in the setup page of the unit)
I bought it as a gift for myself a few months after passing my
private certification. Updates aren't cheap, but I only update it every
6 months (offset 3 months from the sectional updates), and of course it
has nifty terrain and obstacle clearance information...
The only thing I hate about it are all the "You will die if you use
this unit!" warning screens... There are FOUR of them, and you have to
page through each screen to get rid of them. And there's this little
issue of Automotive mode and the compass (2 small column mode)... It has
a nasty habit of resetting the unit if you are on that page for more
than 15 minutes... Then you get to go through the warning screens
again! (Please, GARMIN, I'll sign my life away, just get rid of those
warning screens!!!!!!)
Okay, a bit off the deep end....

Hi John,
On the cheaper side of the stuff available, have a look at the "Anywhere
Map" program www.controlvision.com it has a simple scaled circle or "safety
cone" depicting your possible glide range depending upon certain parameters
entered.
I had this loaded on an ipaq and it was partly re-assuring at night as a
back-up and helped to make decisions and modify your intended route and
altitude selection based on safety zone and landing area options.
I'm sure there are better and more sophisticated capabilities out there but
this was a good option for the budget conscious.

John,
The Anywhere Map software had/has a function very similar to what you
mention. If I remember correctly it would project a ring around your
position showing how far you could glide given present altitude and
performance parameters of the aircraft. This runs on an palm size computer.
I haven't played with one for a few years so anyone with more current info
please feel free to add your $.02. I think Sportys has a complete package
in their catalog, price somewhere north of a grand.

G'day all,
I'm about to start riveting the fuse side skins. Has anyone had any success backriveting
these skins? If so, what is the trick for preventing damage to the
ribs/floor panels while climbing around inside?
If your are near this point, have a look at Rick Sked's fuse stand in Tim Olsons
page under fuselage tips. Looks neat, easy to build and versatile. I had not
noticed it before. I guess the only down side is the height is fixed.
thanks in advance,

Im planning something similar but it will be a MAIN tank in the baggage area.
It will be fed via pumps from the wing tanks. It will only have an 8 gallons
(48 lbs) capacity but it will be easily replaceable with larger capacity for those
really long ocean spanning trips I may increase this standard tank to a
full 1 hour at 75% power reserve, so my IFR range would be a full 60 gallons.
Initially I was going to use the Andair valve but will use ALL three ports of the
Weatherhead for a LEFT-MAIN-RIGHT setting. When all is functioning correctly,
selector will remain on MAIN. LEFT or RIGHT would only be used in case of
an electrical or pump failure. Could also use the pumps as aileron trim.

Don't buy any of this software too early, it all keeps changing. They
are utilizing the Motion companies tablet PC's. Destination Direct uses the
same tablet, but DD is currently offline, as the company was just bought
out!!! ( i use this software for planning, before all the free versions came
out.) They also offered a GPS sensor... and many other bells and whistles if
you chose to take your laptop or tablet flying.
You can buy a tablet and install many software programs.... the weak
point is the lack of integration, as in the moving map will show you airport
frequencies, but are not designed to send them into the COM standby memory like
a Garmin 430+ does. But you can own one for FAR less then the integrated
systems, and have a computer too. Many stand alone systems will allow you to
buy the XM satalite USB receiver and other peripheries...
I recently saw a 2 seat experimental with a laptop in the luggage area,
hard wired for power, with the lid closed , USB GPS antenna and an auxiliary
touch screen moving map display mounted in the front.... with weather, etc..
total cost, under $2000. and all the power of a complete computer.... If
the lap top dies, throw it out a new one can be had cheap now.

Boy - these parts are nice
I just got mine too, and I completely agree!!! This is a no brainer
decision to buy the parts.... My attach bracket was nice, but not nearly as
perfect.

Everything in the photo was $76 including shipping. Well worth it given the quality.
I understand he has more parts on the way too.

I ordered and just received the collection of items Dave Czachorowski is making
for the -10 tail kit. It started with the trim cable anchor - now there
is a set of items.
Boy - these parts are nice. I just installed the HS Brackets he fabricated
and they're very well done.

| Subject: | EAA Tech Counselor visit |
I just had my first EAA Tech counselor visit. There's a guy in our local EAA chapter
that helps a lot of people out in the area - he really seemed to know his
stuff.
Question for the group - what kinds of experiences did you all have with tech counselors
and how would you recommend best working with them to get the most out
of it?

| Subject: | EAA Tech Counselor visit |
Jeff,
Having been a Tech counselor, I'll offer some thoughts.
First, it sounds like you have a strong player, but realize the only
requirement to become a Tech Counselor is to have built an airplane and send
in the paperwork so there are no guarantees about the skill of who you are
getting.
Second, time is a valuable commodity so I'd suggest making the most out of
his/her time and not expect more than they are willing to give. Having said
that, I suspect most counselors enjoy looking at other projects and the time
spent doing so or they shouldn't have signed up to be one.
As for how to utilize them, I'd suggest steering them toward any areas you
have concerns over. Then just cut them loose to wander about the project
primarily as a second set of eyes to catch things you are too familiar with
to notice are wrong. They also tend to have experience with other types of
projects and can offer unique insight to particular problems or catch
something that doesn't quite make sense.
I have never heard of a bad experience with a Tech Counselor so I recommend
you continue the visits if possible. I'd take lots of notes and then decide
what items need to be tweaked as it's your machine and nothing he says is
mandatory.

Thanks for all the suggestions on the glide slope issue.
Also, I absolutely loved the Yoda quote. Anyone who recites Star Wars
dialog is a okay by me!!!!
Unfortunately, we, like the Jedi, are a dying breed.
Did Obi Wan ever tell you what happened to you father...?No Luke, I am your
father.
Building break...Time to break out the Trilogy again, oh and the most recent
one I, IV, V and VI.

Does anybody know what bag or kit the F6122-1 Tri-Gear Brake bracket appears

I can't seem to even find it on the parts list.
