    Subject: Wing Back Riveting
    Just finishing up working on the wing ribs. Looking ahead to the skins I wanted to ask if Back Riveting using the large handheld bucking bar had worked well for those that have tried it. Also, do you recommend using the 12 inch straight or double offset back rivet set. Thanks, George 40434 (Wings)

    George; I just completed the wing skins, and I back riveted everything. It came out great. I did use the large handheld bucking bar, and it was easy. In many spots you will need the double offset back riveter. Just take your time, have a good assistant, and it will work great.

    Subject: Thielert's New 230 hp Diesel Aircraft Engine
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Jay Brinkmeyer <jaybrinkmeyer@yahoo.com> FYI Monday, Thielert Aircraft Engines announced at the Berlin Air Show intent to produce a new liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel-burning, FADEC-controlled single-lever-power 230 bhp engine, the Centurion 3.2. The engine is targeted for air-time in late 2007. Frank Thielert, CEO and founder of Thielert Aircraft Engines GmbH, said his goal was to offer a complete piston engine product line with, "New engines and engine integrations [that] will enable us in [the] future to cover the entire spectrum of piston aircraft engine technology." Those products -- the 150 bhp Centurion 1.7 (powering many Diamond DA42 Twin Star aircraft and burning 5.6 gph in economy cruise), the coming 230 bhp Centurion 3.2, and a 350 bhp Centurion 4.0 -- are supported by 111 service centers currently spanning 97 countries. The addition of more service centers is a company priority, as is Thielert's intent to make its 350 hp 4.0 available for multiple Cessnas. The existing Centurion 4.0 350 bhp jet fuel powered piston engine will be "integrated ... into further popular aircraft..." said Thielert. Specifically, the company seeks to acquire STC's for service in Cessna 206, 340, 414 and 421-series aircraft.

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "RAS" <deruiteraircraftservices@btinternet.com> hi all, If prices are similar as for the 1.7 I would say keep building, stick a Lycosaur on the front and sell it as quick as possible to finance your new thielert engine! You then have only two problems remaining : Find the finances for another RV10 kit and 2 building the thing with a big ugly squared off front area in the cowling....... I recall reading somewhere that current conversion cost are somewhere around 60,000 euro's for the full 1.7 kit for either C172 or PA 28. You'll have to fly an awful lot to get the initial price back through saving in fuel. An article in one of the magazines here recently quoted a headline flying from the UK to France for around 7 or 8 or something . MJR

    Subject: CHTs with electronic ignition
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Dan Masys <dmasys@cox.net> Putting an electronic ignition in seems almost like a no brainer with fuel prices over $5/gal, but one of the potential downsides is higher CHTs (presumably due to more complete combustion). Could those who have flying -10s say whether they are limited in climb out by CHTs hitting high values (and whether they have electronic ignitions)? Am sort of spoiled by my -7A climbing at 2500 fpm with CHTs never higher than about 400, even on 'high, hot' kind of days. Thanks, -Dan Masys Making engine decision...

    Subject: Airflow Performance Fuel Injection
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Dave Saylor" <Dave@aircraftersllc.com> Brian, One thing to consider with the purge valve: We worked on a plane that had the valve oriented so the shaft pointed up. We had replaced the engine isolators among other work and I suspect rasied the engine a tiny bit. We ran it without the cowl for a while, and it ran fine. When we put the cowl on (I know, we should have checked), the top cowl barely contacted the purge valve shaft, pressing it down into its housing. That kept the engine from starting since the shaft displacement created an extreme over-rich condition. Cowl on, no start. Cowl off, ran great. That took a while to figure out...make sure the shaft is well clear! That installation ran the purged fuel back to a header tank (ideally...).
