    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Richard Sipp" <rsipp@earthlink.net> Hi Sean: It's on page 21 of the final inspection and flight test section of the builder's manual. As Tim posted +3.8 and -1.9 at a gross weight of 2700 lbs. There are a couple of paragraphs on G loading and testing. This section has lots of other good "stuff"; it may not come until you order the finish kit if you are not that far along. There is no discussion about "rolling Gs" so you have to assume these limits are for none rolling conditions only. Pulling near limiting G loads at the same time as a roll input can easily overstress the down aileron wing. Any of the aerobatic RVs will fly rings around an AT6, sure miss the RV4. Bananas are good for breakfast too..they taste the same coming up as going down. All the best. Dick Sipp 40065 finish kit

    Subject: My Tunnel Heat Fix
    Jim, Great fix and I'm glad it worked so well, may end up doing that myself. The really impressive thing is the nerve to make the changes since they would be tough to undo. That's the great thing about homebuilts, think of a fix and act on it. Not everyone would have the conviction to do it though - great job! Marcus _____ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of jsmcgrew@aol.com Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2006 3:59 PM Subject: RV10-List: My Tunnel Heat Fix Second try to post this message: On my first 3 flights the tunnel got very warm. You could still hold your hand on it (just barely) but it was hot in there. Additionally, the belly of the aircraft just aft of the cowling was HOT after the flight. Now that I've made some easy changes the tunnel is cool to lukewarm and there is no appreciable heat on the belly after flight. I've been flying in 80 to 90+ degree weather with the heater scat tubing connected. I heard about the tunnel heat problem a little late and I built only a few preemptive things into the plane. I put ceramic gaskets behind the heater valves to keep heat from transfering to the firewall/tunnel. I installed a blast tube on the firewall forward of the tunnel. And I installed a computer fan in the tunnel cover just over the fuel pump (this actually made a big difference in tunnel heat once I turned it on.) These things didn't fix the problem, but here's what did. I was having CHT and oil temp overheating problems and one of the things I did to fix this problem was increase the cowl air exit area to improve air flow. As you can see from the photo I enlarged one of the louvers and added an additional one - this didn't make much difference alone. Then I trimmed the aft edge of the "reverse scoop" forward about an inch (see photo). This increases the exit area, but I think it also allows the hot air to move down and away from the fuse and disipate faster. I'm sure that I added extra drag to my plane, but the engine and tunnel are now cool. Jim McGrew 40134 - flying _____ [Image Removed]

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "John W. Cox" <johnwcox@pacificnw.com> Dick is a fine gentleman and I too did some aerobatics with him and Spanish Lady back in 1990 when I was producing airshows for the Blues. He was based at Centennial (Colorado) and the memory of our low pass over Chatsworth Reservoir at 50' AGL was unforgettable. This is a well maintained T-6 if there are other Warbird fans within the RV-10 community.

You are absolutely correct. Enjoying flight and all that goes with it is a major reason for the build. The people that surround it, the unbelievable scenery, the excitement of your youngest as she gets to take a ride in a very cool 1929 Curtis Wright TravelAir Biplane.....and so much more. All of us building are very blessed for the opportunity to do so. Can you think of many things better than pouring hours of your time into a project that allows for so much fun with your family and the satisfaction of such an accomplishment? You and the others that have completed the project....now fly! The rest of us can't wait to get there, but along the way there are small victories that are adding up to the big payoff. For now....I'm a builder that is a student pilot. I have much to learn. Soon I will be the certificated pilot of an airplane that I was fortunate to build. I've attached a picture of the AT-6. The pilot/owner is Dick Jones. The plane is "The Spanish Lady" and it is beautiful on the ground and in the air. Unfortunately, he must sell it due to high fuel costs. Anyone want to upgrade? Thanks for your help, again. Sean Blair #40225 -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Tim Olson Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2006 6:21 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: G ratings Hi Sean, Here's a link from Van's site regarding the engineering of the RV-10. http://www.vansaircraft.com/public/rv-10int2.htm I think it was designed for use within the standard category normal limits of +3.8 and -1.52 G's. That's great that you took a flight in an AT-6 Texan. I'm hoping to do some advanced recovery training some day, perhaps in a plane like that. We too had a new experience this past weekend. We went to 3 local fly-in's in the RV-10, one of which was at a small grass strip with just about every type of small plane and ultralight you can imagine. We paid and took the 4 of us up in a 1929 Curtis Wright TravelAir Biplane. It sure was an experience! I've never seen my youngest so happy in an airplane. (photo attached) This reminds me....from time to time, the discussion turns to where to put the OAT probe in the airplane. One builder recently told me they didn't want to tear things up to move the wire out to under the wing, somewhere mid-span, like I suggested...and that they would mount it far back aft under the tailcone. From the ride in the TravelAir, I can tell you for sure that you would never want to do this. I could feel the heat off the cylinders a few feet back within the boundry layer around the airplane. There is almost no possible way that your OAT will read properly if it's inline with the prop, either in the sun on top, or the exhaust flow on the bottom. Move it out to a place under the wing, near an inspection panel. If you don't, not only will your chance of icing maybe go up, but your systems like in my case the Chelton's won't be able to accurately calculate density altitude and True Airspeed. Anyway, nice to see you're not so focused on the -10 that you won't get out and have some fun!

    Subject: Re: Nose Wheel Valve Clearance Solution
    I just spoke with the people at Matco about returning my front wheel for exchange and they said, like a previous poster had said, they will take it back if it hadn't been mounted yet. The only difference from the last post is that there is a small fee for returning it. The fee is $18.30 plus you pay the shipping charges. If it's been mounted, like mine was but the plane had never been moved, they have to evaluate whether they can accept it back as new or if the have to repair it or not. I couldn't see a scratch on mine but I'll have to wait and see what they say. I told the lady, Carolyn, that others said there was no charge if they hadn't been mounted yet and she told me that she has set up the receiving on all of these exchanges and they all were or would be charged the standard fee. For what ever it's worth. Wayne Edgerton #40336 front wheel off and going back

    I'm already deleting a whole bunch of stuff from the finish kit and I think this will be another item. No sense in paying for it to be shipped to me, returned, and have another handling fee and shipping fee assessed. Sure would be nice if Van's would just start using the correct part. I'm sure Matco has brought this up with them.

On a more serious note on my last flight the EGT on cyl#5 went to 1425 degrees and did not respond to a full rich mixture setting.

    Subject: HTS
    From: "zackrv8" <zackrv8@verizon.net>
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "zackrv8" <zackrv8@verizon.net> Guys, Here's what I am doing for the HTS (Hot Tunnel Syndrome). I made two brackets that raise up off the bottom floor by 1 inch. They are simple U-brackets made from .050 2024. The existing cradle brackets are then riveted on and three holes on each flange are then riveted to the Tunnel side walls. I have a"KoolMat" insulation layer laying on the floor followed by 1 inch of closed cell foam I bought from Wicks. The fuel lines will be firesleeved when I finish making them. SO much easier working in the Tunnel without the side skins on!

    Subject: Re: A few new photos and items posted
    Thank you, Mark. I looked at Scott's pics. Looks like the filter is turned 90 degrees by the adapter and is butt high. So by punching a hole in the top (butt) of the filter, the oil drains back into the engine with nothing left after about 20 minutes. This looks like a mess saving way to change the oil filter. What specific adapter did you order from B&C for your IO-540? I looked at their website and they have several.
