Lubricating UHMW BlocksI also went with AIG, through NationAir and they
waived make and model time in an RV-10 for both me and my buddy who I
added as a named pilot. We both have in excess of 1400 hours. I have
almost 300 TT in an RV-6A but my buddy doesn't have any RV time.
Insured for $200,000.00 for less than $3800.00 premium.

Subject: RV10-List: Insurance for first flight
I had a near anxiety attack causing lesson yesterday over my
insurance. My machine is all signed off and ready to go for Saturday,
so I called the insurance folks I had spoken to during Sun-n-Fun
prepared to bind the insurance. While at Sun-n-Fun, I had been told
that my 5,500+ hours, extensive RV-6 and other low wing time (Cherokee,
etc) would count as close enough to the RV-10 so no -10 time was
required. Well, things have changed and I was told from several
insurers that between 2-5 hours Dual was required and one company said
they wouldn't insure during the test period no matter what. I was heart
broken over possibly not being able to fly this weekend.
Fortunately, after many calls to every agent I could think of, the
folks at Falcon Insurance hooked me up with AIG and approved no
experience requirements but with an increased deductible and reduced
liability during the test phase - WHEW! I am certainly a firm believer
in experience in make and model and don't want to downplay the benefits,
but I survived my Q-2 and Skybolt with no make/model time and have
enough experience in enough types that I'm confident all will go well,
and apparently so does Falcon. This is certainly not the right answer
for everyone, but I wanted to stress that the industry has become more
conservative regarding the RV-10 (one broker told me they were leaning
toward 250 hrs TT and an instrument rating!) so I'd recommend folks plan
ahead and get the training if required.

Subject: | Re: Door seal adhesive |
I used a rubber door seal that I purchased from Brown Aircraft Supply
in Jacksonville, FL along with 3M 1300L glue. The seal only comes in
black and it has the identical profile with Van's seal supplied with
the kit.
I was looking for a door seal with smaller diameter bulb so the door
could be closed easier. I also did not want to get silicone glue
(the only glue you can use with the door seal that comes with the
kit) near my plane before painting the plane for the fear of
contamination.
I seem to have a good seal and am able to close latch the door with
less force on the handle.

Mine were pretty tight too, but I just left them. Spraying them
with something may attract dust and stuff. 110 hours later
they're still fine. I think the friction is pretty minor
compared to the aerodynamic forces they'll be working against.

The vents Stein has are probably the best available, but none that
he has *today* are a drop-in replacement that works with the
4-hole thing sent with the kit. What he's saying is if you want
a better, cheaper valve, do a little creative engineering and
don't attach that 4-hole thing, but attach a hose, mount the
valve differently, and use his valve.
Jesse was right that the doors are one of the weak design areas
of the plane, but the ventilation is another. I'm all for
trying to figure out something better for the front vents, but
in the end I gave up. The newer kits with the lower cutouts
may have better luck.
At any rate, the 4-hole ones are what I used, so I couldn't
get them from him right now. I believe he may be able to get
them eventually, but I'm not sure. After seeing the ones on
his site, I wanted to go down that path, but just couldn't do
it today. Stein, work on those guys to get you a supply and
you'll sell a bunch.

I installed the seal after the door was painted. The door does need
a good pull though to close, so it would be nice to have your
seal, but in the standard silicone. The silicone should last
longer and hold up better. Both should be fine.

Rob,
Which actual part number did you buy? They have a number of them that
look
the same as the Van=92s gray seal.

It is BA1900010. It has a smaller bulb and a shorter leg. Just make
sure that you mask the door before applying the 3M glue. Once there
and cured, it will not come off.

Subject: | Air Vent Recommendation |
From: "John N. Strain II" <aircarepros@yahoo.com>
Subject: Re: RV10-List: Air Vent Recommendation
I am attatching a photo of even another option for vents. These vents are the
most highly styled available and provide more air movement than any of the others
that have been mentioned. They were displayed in the Flightline AC booth
as an upgrade option to our ac systems. They mount thru a skin (overhead or
panel) by drilling a 2.5" hole and are held in place by a threaded fitting that
can accept a 2.5" hose, or they are trimmed to allow for use in an overhead
panel. They fully close off, partially open, and fully open via a telescoping
mechanism and rotate 360' to be able to focus air movement. They are a machined
aluminum part. They sell for $125.00 each.
Flightline AC # is 541-330-5466

Well....both types of vents will work. It just depends on what you do with
those "dumbo/elephant ears" on the lower corners of the panel. The standard
Van's vents use a pretty large flange with 4 screw holes in them. The vents
I chose to procure do not have the flange on them and as a result the size
of that ear can be nearly 1" smaller overall than the flanged ones. We
looked at getting those, but I figured as replacements we wouldn't sell many
because people probably already had the higher buck aluminum ones from
Van's, and new builders would like the smaller area required by the
"flangeless" vents. While they still have a flange on them it's only about
1/8" around the circumferance and the vent is held in place by screwing on
the plenum from the back. At least that's what I prefer, and so that's what
we ended up with! I've been flying behind the smaller ones for years in
my -6 and they work great, but the larger ones will inevitably allow for
more airflow.
If there's any lesson to be learned out of this it's to file those worthless
plastic ones in the garbage the minute you get them (us old little RV
builders learned that lesson long ago) - but that's just my opinion!
Cheers,
Stein.

Lubricating UHMW BlocksOther than wanting the insurance, well for
insurance in case of an unwanted event, Does the DAR or other require
that the builder show insurance for the inspection? Is insurance even a
requirement- like it is for a car?
Not saying I don't want insurance just trying to understand if one is
"required" to have it versus chosing to have it.
Some people, for example, with no or little flight time may be limited
to finding insurance, does that mean they can't take their chances until
meeting the requirement?
So other than comments about whether it's right or wrong for not having
it- just want to know is it required?
Thanks!

I had a near anxiety attack causing lesson yesterday over my
insurance. My machine is all signed off and ready to go for Saturday,
so I called the insurance folks I had spoken to during Sun-n-Fun
prepared to bind the insurance. While at Sun-n-Fun, I had been told
that my 5,500+ hours, extensive RV-6 and other low wing time (Cherokee,
etc) would count as close enough to the RV-10 so no -10 time was
required. Well, things have changed and I was told from several
insurers that between 2-5 hours Dual was required and one company said
they wouldn't insure during the test period no matter what. I was heart
broken over possibly not being able to fly this weekend.
Fortunately, after many calls to every agent I could think of, the
folks at Falcon Insurance hooked me up with AIG and approved no
experience requirements but with an increased deductible and reduced
liability during the test phase - WHEW! I am certainly a firm believer
in experience in make and model and don't want to downplay the benefits,
but I survived my Q-2 and Skybolt with no make/model time and have
enough experience in enough types that I'm confident all will go well,
and apparently so does Falcon. This is certainly not the right answer
for everyone, but I wanted to stress that the industry has become more
conservative regarding the RV-10 (one broker told me they were leaning
toward 250 hrs TT and an instrument rating!) so I'd recommend folks plan
ahead and get the training if required.

I wanted to announce a rare sale that we are having at Cleaveland
Aircraft
Tool. We try and keep prices reasonable all the time rather than
running
specials, however our inventory level is just too high after the summer
show
season has come to an end. As a result we have decided to have an
"inventory reduction sale" or a give-away sale as I like to call it as
all
of the items are at, near, or below our cost.
Some of the items are:
Clekos (you will never see Wedgeloc brand clekos at this price)
3M wheels
Air Drills
Wire Twisters
Unibits and hole cutter sets
Dimple dies
Many others.
Check out the whole list at

be sure to click into the "special pricing" on each item to see the sale
price.
The items will drop off as inventory levels come down so act fast.

No, unless perhaps there's a state-by-state rule, I've never heard
of such a thing. You could probably go without insurance if you
choose to accept all the risks.

I was told that I could choose to not bind coverage and do my flyoff
without insurance, and that the time would still count toward the
total time in make/model. What they DON'T want is someone to start
the insurance process, but not finish it, and fly without it. They
figure that it would then be possible for an uninsured person to
crash and have the spouse still claim they should have been insured,
just because there was some preliminary work done to get coverage
going in the future. So they really want to stay away from you until
you are ready to bind insurance. I did get AIG too, and they did have
decreased coverage during the flyoff, and I believe a 10% deductible
during that time. They required 5 hours of Transition Training from
me, with me having just a hair under 500 Total Time and an instrument
rating. I was told that if I did do the flyoff period and THEN
applied for insurance, I would probably get a better rate right
off the bat because of having a bunch of time in type. Not that
this would be a good idea, but just to show that it is possible.
I figured if all else failed, and I couldn't get transition training
and the whole process fell apart, that's what I'd do...but I didn't
end up having to. Transition training is worthwhile, but a current
and experience pilot would really not need more than a couple hours.
So no, I don't think it's required, but again, it may be
a state law or something in some state...I've just never
heard of such a thing.

The only instance that comes to mind for " required " insurance would be
a lender requiring hull insurance if the plane was collateral for a
loan. Other than that, you're on your own. ( at least here in Ohio ).
The wisdom of "going naked" is different issue though.

--> RV10-List message posted by: "Byron Gillespie" <bgill1@charter.net>
For some others that are utilizing the Chevrolet overhead console, I
have found some decent LED lights that are a perfect retrofit. I wanted
to ditch the factory white ones so began playing around fabricating some
bulbs - they worked great but were time consuming to fabricate. I
checked at my favorite store and found some options to investigate. I
bought 4 Red LED bulbs for the map lights and a blue for the dome light.
I bought several others to try out but these are the best I found. All
look great. The seller on eBay that I used was "velocityled_1" there are
likely others but he was super fast and very professional to deal with.
They are set for 12V automotive application so are already set with
resistors and diode for current protection.
The power draw is 0.05A each - all 5 lights lit up .25A
Eyeball - "VELOCITY LEDS SUPER RED HIGH POWER LED BULB 194 168 158"
- 2 for 8.99+S&H
Console - "SUPER BLUE HIGH POWER LED BULB 211-2 212-2 214-2"
- 1 for 6.99 + S&H (can combine)
Just another custom option.

With all the talk about flying insurance I thought I would ask who
everyone is using for builders insurance, if they are. I have reached
the point where I have enough invested that I don't want the risk
hanging out there anymore.

I also went with AIG, through NationAir and they waived make and model
time in an RV-10 for both me and my buddy who I added as a named pilot.
We both have in excess of 1400 hours. I have almost 300 TT in an RV-6A
but my buddy doesn't have any RV time.
Insured for $200,000.00 for less than $3800.00 premium.

I had a near anxiety attack causing lesson yesterday over my
insurance. My machine is all signed off and ready to go for Saturday,
so I called the insurance folks I had spoken to during Sun-n-Fun
prepared to bind the insurance. While at Sun-n-Fun, I had been told
that my 5,500+ hours, extensive RV-6 and other low wing time (Cherokee,
etc) would count as close enough to the RV-10 so no -10 time was
required. Well, things have changed and I was told from several
insurers that between 2-5 hours Dual was required and one company said
they wouldn't insure during the test period no matter what. I was heart
broken over possibly not being able to fly this weekend.
Fortunately, after many calls to every agent I could think of, the
folks at Falcon Insurance hooked me up with AIG and approved no
experience requirements but with an increased deductible and reduced
liability during the test phase - WHEW! I am certainly a firm believer
in experience in make and model and don't want to downplay the benefits,
but I survived my Q-2 and Skybolt with no make/model time and have
enough experience in enough types that I'm confident all will go well,
and apparently so does Falcon. This is certainly not the right answer
for everyone, but I wanted to stress that the industry has become more
conservative regarding the RV-10 (one broker told me they were leaning
toward 250 hrs TT and an instrument rating!) so I'd recommend folks plan
ahead and get the training if required.

I've had good luck with Avemco on builder's insurance, however I wouldn't
use them for the flying insurance due to their rates.
