| Subject: | OSH Camping and RV-10 gathering |
We're coming up on the last call for campsites pretty quickly.
We've got 16 sites being held all for specific individuals who've
actually contacted Bob with their request. 16 sites is a pretty
good sized area, but we'd be happy to rope off a couple more
if there are more people who want to camp in that area. The
info is all on the builders list page on how to sign up, but
email Bob Condrey if you have questions.
Here is the current reservation chart:
http://www.myrv10.com/osh/OSH_2007_RV10HQ.jpg
For those who will be flying your RV-10 to OSH, please, if you do
just one thing this year, FLY SAFE, and also READ and PRINT
and CARRY the NOTAM. Be Prepared. We don't want the first
RV-10 crash to be at OSH, that's for sure.
Here is a copy of the notam:
http://www.myrv10.com/files/FAA_docs/OSHnotam07.pdf
Now, for something I'd consider REQUIRED READING, you want
to check out this article that should whip you into shape
attitude wise before flying in. You'd be a fool not to heed
the warning.
http://www.avweb.com/news/pilotlounge/182691-1.html
On the builders list page I have added info for use for
helping you around the show, much of it straight from the EAA
site. The OSH 2007 Planning guide, among others.
http://www.myrv10.com/osh/07planning_guide.pdf
Also there are grounds maps, and maps to our area in scholler, which
will be updated after the 17th when Bob is on site.
It's looking like it's going to be a great year for gatherings, with
lots of people showing up at the show, and a bunch going to Van's
banquet and the BBQ. For those who are staying there and have
young kids, I'm sure if you're camping we'll be able to
coordinate some good times where the kids can all hang out.
I myself have decided that this year I'm going to take it one step
up off the ground and I picked up a small camper for the show, so
I'm kind of pumped about the whole camping thing.
As for fly-in arrivals, if there is anyone planning to go early
on Sunday, I could find a way to meet up with you and fly in
at the same time. My home airport (KLUM) has fuel for $3.75/gal,
which in this area is very good. It's a 1 hr leg from there to
OSH, so it makes a great last fuel stop that gives you just
enough time to re-read the NOTAM on the first half of the flight
over, and from there on in you need to be on the ball big time.
Also, if you're flying your RV-10 in, please let me know and
I'll put it on the list where it will be parked (HBP or HBC).
That way people will know where to go see it. There are
lots of excited RV-10 builders out there wanting to eyeball
all the finished planes.
Again though, if you're planning on camping in the RV-10 common area,
shoot Bob your request right away. It will save you lots of
walking and you'll find it very convenient.

Ben Moyle mentioned in the article was flying a Glasair III. He and I went
to lots of airshows together with our III's. I don't know about his, but
mine stalled at 95mph when loaded. I went around several times at OSH
because someone felt he needed to show how slow his plane could fly.
As they say, fly the plane, fly the plane!

| Subject: | Rivethead Aero, are you out there? |
Anyone heard from Rivethead Aero in the form of a delivery or contact?
I place an order 3 weeks ago, followed up this week with an email and a phone call,
mail box full on answering machine....check returned, address no good.
Laughs on me, I ordered them online with Paypal so some recourse if it's gone bad
which I don't think it has.
A post by Matt Burch on Vansairforce today asked the same thing, I know a -10 builder
on the list is related somehow.

I got my parts from them a week ago I think. From the time I placed the
order to the time I got it was about 3 weeks. I think stuff gets made
in batches, and goes out when ready. I wouldn't worry about
"recourse"... I've ordered a bunch from him, and it always shows up -
just make sure to place the order long before you need the part!

Thanks CJ,
I wasn't worried, I saw the post on Vansairforce and figured I ask out loud on
the list for peace of mind mainly and to dispell rumors that always start once
the "are they in business" posts start.

| Subject: | AEX Tiedown - thickness of flange |
Can someone tell me the thickness of the flange on the AEX Tiedown
extrusion? That is, I'm looking for the thickness of the flange that
the bolts go thru. This same part is used on the tail and wing tiedowns
I'm trying to determine the bolt size to use on one of the aileron
brackets with a cushion clamp added.
Thanks in advance.

Rick,
I've tried numerous times to contact them and place an order before they
showed the door things on the website. I talked to him once and he was
going to call back. Never heard from him - I've left several messages
and emails since to no avail.

Bob, I will be driving to Osh and camping I should arrive on Wed (25 and stay till
Sat morning. I will be driving and sleeping in a van. I would like to either
reserve a campsite or just park in an existing space. I will pay for the
use of the site.
Let me know if I need to send you some money or what ever arrangement you want.
Thanks, Jim Combs (40192)

For those that are reserving sites at RV-10 HQ in Camp Scholler, I will
send out an email to everybody probably late in the day on Tuesday 7/17
with contact cell phone numbers for Tim, Gary and I along with a map to
the location. Game plan is that you should call one of us when about
20-30 minutes out and one of us will meet you at the Camp Scholler
entrance with your campsite credentials and car pass. Obviously we
won't know the exact location before Tuesday AM, but if you have any
other questions feel free to contact me before then.
*** Begin Advertisement ***
Current count is up to 16 sites. Time is getting short if you want to
reserve a site of your own! I have sent a confirmation email to all
that I've received a check from - if you haven't received an email, I
haven't received your check. I can also accept PayPal using my email
address for the account.

That's really too bad. I got the trim cable mounts a while back but I don't
recall how long it took. I'll say it again for any of you vendors lurking, fastest
way to make or kill your business in aviation is word of mouth. Not responding
to potential customers, or worse current customers, will do more damage
than anything else in the Internet age let alone in hanger talk.
You want to run a business, act like you actually give a crap about your customers
and you will never have to worry about bad press taking a foothold. Zack,
I believe Dave is your nephew or something like that. He makes some nice stuff
but you might want to say something to him before this slides anymore.

Same experience here. Took a long time. Little response in the
interim. But it all came in and met expectations... except for
timeliness and responsiveness. But that includes cost and quality.
I'll do it again as long as I have the lead time.

I still have the cutoff piece and the wings measure 0.070 inches. Hope
that is the dimension you need.
