OK, I am a little confused. You are making two slots 3x8=94 (a little
tight
for a hand with a tool, I would think), about 3.5=94 aft of the panel.
This
is aft of which panel (I assume the subpanel)? If it is inside the
windshield, I think you will have much better access from underneath,
personally. If you are talking aft of the firewall, and thus outside
the
windshield, then it will have to be sealed. This is the only place I
can
imagine an access panel that would be worth the trouble to put in, so
you
can get at anything that you might put between the subpanel and the
firewall, because that is very hard to get to after the rudder pedals
are
installed (not to mention the control sticks and seats). Am I missing
something?

I spoke with Van's today and they see no problem creating access panels.
I
plan to create two 3" by 8" slots about 3.5" aft of the panel ; they
will
each start about 2" either side of the center post. Van's suggested
avoiding
overkill on the doublers. match the thickness of the forward deck with
the
doubler. They suggested #6 screws but I will use #8s and nutplates. I
will
be necessary to use cap screws with internal hex head so that an Allen
wrench can install and remove. I will install my defroster fan just
forward
of the left slot with some .625" standoffs ; I believe this will provide
adequate air circulation to keep condensation at a minimum in rainy
humid
conditions.

David,
I considered doing this but decided to cut the panel into three sections
instead. This worked well for my simple VFR panel layout. Center section
should not have to be removed. Side sections give plenty of access.

Aircraft tires, especially small ones, will lose air pressure due to a
number of reasons, most of which do not warrant a tube/tire change. Have
holes in my RV-6 wheel pants with pop out plugs for 2-3 years now. Just
take a hole saw, support from back side, and cut. May have to dress up
rim/edge of hole for durability. LM, RV-6/N42GF/FD38

Yeah, I know.... but the benefits are well worth it. Trust me! :-)
Besides, we have been together for ten (10) years and I have a lot
invested in her. At 41 years old, she's got the body of a 21 year old
(goes to the gym 5 days a week along with Yoga and Pilates classes the
other two days).... Beautiful, sexy, smart and she's 'smoking hot'!.
It's the perfect set up.... She owns and lives in her own home 18 miles
away, I live alone in my home about 1.2 miles from the hangar/airport,
and we get together on Saturday evening and all day on Sundays! The
rest of the time I get to spend building or flying airplanes. What more
could a guy want and who the heck would want to give that up? Oh, and
on Sunday's she brings over all my pre-cooked/prepared meals for the
entire next week..... Excellent cook and she love's to do it....
Sorry for the 'boast post'... but I just couldn't resist. I have too
many buddies at the airport that would die to have the situation I have
so if she needs room for three suitcases full of shoes..... she's got
it! :-)

I just finished all my wiring and I did it all myself for 2 Cheltons, 2
Grand Rapids, and a standard IFR stack in the middle. If I were to add
access holes for wiring I would add them forward of the windshield like
Dan Checkoways. http://www.rvproject.com/20031124.html
I don't think it would help much at all by having access holes in the
cabin. The windshield is pretty close and you will have a hard time
seeing. I have had very good luck jut removing the sticks, laying down
and reaching up to get everything. It is a pain but it's not too bad.

You also need to consider the amount of ballast you'd have to add to the
baggage compartment if you didn't have any back seats. Current pilots talk
about wishing they had a little more elevator authority on landings when
flying solo or light. I would imagine the removal of the rear seats would
make the problem even more dramatic. Of course, you could go lighter
forward of the firewall to compensate to some degree.

I would very much recommend that you NOT put in the crotch strap bracket in
the back. If you are in an -8 and plan on aerobatics, that is one thing,
but putting a passenger back there for a cross-country trip is another
story. But, to each his own. I think most people, from what I have read on
this list, are not putting them in, or end up removing them before they get
finished.

Paul,
Personaly, I wouldn't install belts in ANY plane without a crotch strap
for two reasons. There are all sorts of studies that show how much they
enhance protection from "submarining" in a crash, but they also make it
possible for everyone to cinch down their lap belts more effectively for
improved comfort in turbulence.

I'll be at the homecoming. It's nice to live here. Looking forward to
all the RV's coming back home.
Question: What kind of restraint system is used for the rear seats?
Should I install the rear seat crotch bracket or not?
Thanks, And See you all at Van's

My concern on that approach would be to ensure that you have a good seal.
I've seen too many stacks trashed by leaking windshields. I would think
that putting access panels in front of the windshield would be inviting
trouble.

I just finished all my wiring and I did it all myself for 2 Cheltons, 2
Grand Rapids, and a standard IFR stack in the middle. If I were to add
access holes for wiring I would add them forward of the windshield like
Dan Checkoways. http://www.rvproject.com/20031124.html
I don't think it would help much at all by having access holes in the
cabin. The windshield is pretty close and you will have a hard time
seeing. I have had very good luck jut removing the sticks, laying down
and reaching up to get everything. It is a pain but it's not too bad.

On my 6A slider, I made my panel removable...the eight pack is removable
from the
panel and provides access to allow the rest of the panel to come out.
I am thinking about access panels forward of the windshield though.

Below is a picture of the sample door seal from I received from Aircraft

I looks to be a firm texture closed cell foam with a self-adhesive

| Subject: | Re: Aircraft Door Seal sample |
Kevin,
I installed these in my Piper, and have been disappointed. Not so much with
the product but how they've worked. IMHO in the Piper the location is not
the best...it should be on the door and not in the opening. Feet catch on
them along with hands and the rivets in the door pull the foam away from the
planes frame.
In an experimental you can get your own closes cell foam and try with out
spending $70 to get similar results. But please do what you think best. As I
said I was disappointed with this product in a Cherokee and it was most
probably due to the foam location and not the product itself.
Just my opinion, though...

Here is one option. There are two similar ground connectors mounted above
and below the triangular reinforcement where the firewall and top longeron
meet. There are at least thirty ground pins available in each connector.
The paint was removed under the mounting. I am planning to also terminate
the large ground lead from the engine on the same triangular reinforcement.
