    Subject: Re: Build times - time to get restarted?
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Russell Daves" <dav1111@cox.net> Larry: First let me give you my background so you have some perspective to work from. I am a 60 year old first time builder with 1500+ hours flying time, an instrument ticket, and a full time law practice. My first five airplanes were three C182's, a C-177, and a Bellance Super Viking. My sixth airplane was an RV-6A which I purchased. I loved it so much that when the RV-10 came out I decided I had to build it in order to have both an RV and a four place airplane. From October of 2003 until about July of 2004 I worked on the Emp/Tailcone kit getting it mostly built. I had an A&P friend who taught me the basic building skills and gave me a hand at times when it really helps to have a second pair of hands (there are a lot of those times). When the QB wings arrived I did a little work on them while finishing up on the Emp/Tailcone but the wings I basically set aside after receiving the QB fuselage and worked on it until about March of 2005 when one of my best friends (and RV-10 builder) passed away. I spent most of my spare time over the next three months helping his widow get his RV-10, engine, and prop sold. I then had three major surgeries during the period of May-August of 2005. When I recovered and got back to building in November of 2005 I pushed ahead with every free waking hour (average 6 hours sleep a night) until I finished my RV-10 and flew it on 7/28/06. Thirty three months from start to finish including the over 8 months of down time, and keeping my solo law office afloat. Would I do it again? In a heart beat!! I have enjoyed the building process even though the last three months were hell on wheels because of the deadline I set for myself of flying to OSH2006. I flew the week of OSH2006 just not to OSH2006. So close yet so far away. My -10 is in the paint shop at GLO Custom Paint and I am due to get it back next week. I can hardly wait. Had I not sold my RV-6A early during the building process I would not have pushed myself so hard to get the RV-10 built by OSH2006, but on the other hand I am really glad I sold when I did as I obtained a really good price and it helped pay for the RV-10 build. If you are not going to make a commitment to build, now is the time to sell your Emp/Tail kit. Building an RV-10 takes both a commitment of time as well as money. From a time standpoint you will be better off committing a regular consistent amount of time, whether that is 10 hours a week or closer to 20 hours a week for part time building. The long layoff's and stop/start of the building process is not helpful and will cause you to have to spend a lot of extra time just getting back up to speed in the building process. >From a money standpoint, I did not build cheap, however I probably have about $150,000.00 in my RV-10, but I didn't go as expensive as some who I am sure will have $200,000 or more in their RV-10. I doubt you can do a decent job of building a quality RV-10 for less than about $125,000.00. I hope this helps you make a decision. One thing I assure you of, if you decide to the building commitment there are a lot of really great guys out there who can help you with advise, pictures, and encouragement. The RV community is one of the best groups of guys and girls you will ever come across. If you are not active in a local EAA chapter I would also encourage you to get active as the EAA group is great as well.

    Subject: Static Ports / Airspeed Error
    --> RV10-List message posted by: <jim@combsfive.com> For you guys that are flying and working on the static port / airspeed errors. Couple of questions / Comments: (1) Has anyone gone back to the EFIS folks to see if they can provide an airspeed calibration method. Maybe a linear scaling factor to the calculated airspeed number prior to display to offset any static port "differences". (2) If the airspeed is slightly off is the altitude also "Off"? I would think any static port errors would also have an altitude error. What is the GPS telling you at zero airspeed and altitude vs 200 mph (or knots)?

I was surprised no one else mentioned it. Vary the static pressure either positive or negative and vary the altitude inversely. "When going from High to Low - lookout below". Sound familiar.

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Paul Grimstad" <bldgrv10450@comcast.net> Larry I enjoyed the history and detail of your build process. I am having a great time work on kit 450 fuselage now. It's fun to look at all the beautiful RV10's completed but, some how it seems more achievable when you read the history of your completion. When your in the process concentrating on each little detail the overall task seems daunting, but bit by bit you look at what you have completed and the building of an RV10 is a truly rewarding undertaking.

I don't have any installation pix handy but they form & fit identical to the aluminum units supplied in the kit.

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Evan and Megan Johnson" <evmeg@snowcrest.net> Yep...that is Don London and he is an outstanding guy. He builds for Vans and spruce and Adam and Cirrus among others. I just spoke with him a bit about this and he is doing a SS heat box as well as the directional vents for the cabin heat. (you can select heat for one side or the other at will) I don't think he is shipping them yet but he is supposed to be bringing me some to look at next weekend at the Reno air races. I will let you fellows know how they look if you are interested.

    Subject: Dick Waters engine
    Please relate your info in the forum. Having one of his engines in hand along with a pleasant process definitely needs the other side of the coin. He said to call him prior to engine run for a phone walk-through. The engine is also unconditionally guaranteed for one year from first run on the airplane.
