    Subject: oshkosh --- favor
    dear list readers--- I had planned to go to Oshkosh to advertise my RV-10 (N325HP, http://welch.econ.brown.edu/n325hp/) for sale, but personal reasons do not allow me to do this. A couple of my friends is going, but none will be parked in the RV-10 section. If anyone will be proudly displaying their airplane and is not trying to sell it, too, I would gladly contribute to the fuel cost of this person flying out there if he/she could hand out 1-page flyers for me to interested viewers. I guess the easiest way to do this is to place up a little table next to the plane and put the flyers under a paper weight or into a box that can hold flyers. if you can do this for me, please send me an email, and let me know how much you would like me to contribute to your fuel costs for this favor and for how many days you will be there. The flyer itself could either be sent to you electronically and printed at Kinko's, or I could send you the hard copies myself. Either way. Help would be very much appreciated. I wish I could have been there. Regards, /iaw

    Ivo; I think you'll find someone who will do you a "favor" and watch your flyers for you, but you would be best served to get someone who knows your plane and can answer specific questions about it versus another builder/flyer that has the same plane but not a 325HP engine nor any of the other "perks" you have in your plane. See if your friends can swing some time and hang out by a RV-10 and hand out flyers (you give them to take to OSH) to anyone interested in the RV-10. Unless you have a plane to show only someone who can "sell" your plane, based on first hand experience will be best for handing out flyers. Also, I would be remiss for not mentioning the technicality of being reimbursed any fuel costs when the word "experimental" is on the plane.. Best of success!

    From: "John W. Cox" <johnwcox@pacificnw.com>
    Jeff, I just got back from the NWEAA Arlington Fly-IN and someone has probably already offered. However, I am flying our CJ-6 Fighter/Trainer into Manitowok arriving on Friday PM. Paul Grimstad will fly into MKE on Sunday and we both will head to Sausen's picnic. As EAA Tech Counselor #5242, I would be happy to drop by after taking my flight skins off. As Deems' can tell you I will travel great distances to help make RV-10s the safest kit-built around. Offer good to many US locations. John Cox (503) 453-6016.

I am pretty flexible the whole week and am not sure which days I will be attending so if anyone could help me out I could stop by and pick them up anytime.

    Shawn I use a product from SEM called SOLVE 38374. Available at our local auto parts store. I am also using SEM Self-etching primer. GooGone did not cut some of the sticky stuff and seemed to leave a residue. One other thing that I like about SOLVE, the quart can comes with a long nose applicator and small cap that helps control fumes and spills.

I need to remove tape residue from my wing spar. I was thinking of using Goo Gone to do it but wanted to know if anybody knows of any ill effects from doing this. Any issues? Is there something that would be more appropriate to use? Thanks. --Shawn 40366 - Wings ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Fussy? Opinionated?

    Subject: Surreal experience realized today...
    From: "John W. Cox" <johnwcox@pacificnw.com>
    Dan, congratulations on a most important milestone in RV-10 building. I don't believe you can truly fathom how many people are looking forward to seeing you and your plane on the sacred ground at OSH next week. Take care and may your flyoff be un-eventful. I just returned from NWEAA, which is billed by them as the largest regional EAA fly-in. Attendance was down about 30% from last year. Personally, I think Sun N'Fun has that record for a regional. You are the talk of many NW builders. Unfortunately word of Roger Everson's loss of his RV-7 Subie Egg H4 supercharged 2.5L down in Arizona set things back. Do it right... fly safe. I am still trying to grasp the word that "Two weeks to Taxi" is available to RV-10 builders. Dave Saylor, VAN, Joe, John, and Rick must have given up trying to save the homebuilt industry for those select few, large production numbers offered by the capitalists. OSH '08 - maybe the FAA will do it right for a change.

    We just added Bill Watson (#40605) as site number 17 to the RV-10 HQ gang at AirVenture. Unfortunately Bill is only staying through Tuesday or Wednesday. If you are showing up, want to camp and don't yet have a site - here's an opportunity. Contact Bill directly at Mauledriver@nc.rr.com to work something out if interested - Tim will be updating the graphical view of site availability soon but I wanted to let folks know as soon as possible.

    Dave McNeil posted an excellent post on the routing and potential conflict with pre-manufactured VANS control cables. I have their First Line source and have had many cables made to exact dimension to help with better routing and reduced friction. If any builders are interested... contact me offline or grab me on the ground at OSH '07. John Cox #600

    Subject: Another RV-10 slips the surly bonds
    At about 2 PM Sunday July 15th, about four hours after receiving its airworthiness certificate (and with a whole lot of reassembly help from RV-10 builder Brian Sutherland and members of EAA Chapter 162), N104LD (aka serial number 40448) launched skyward for the first time from John Tune airport in Nashville. Required a fair amount of right foot to keep the ball centered, with the factory new IO-540 and Hartzell blended airfoil prop, and averaged about 170 kts around the patch with its fairings on and 75% power. Definitely has that distinctive RV feel, though quite a bit heavier in the nose than the RV-7A. Pics of the takeoff, panel and post-flight RV grin attached. Only 24.5 hours to fly off by next weekend :) -Dan Masys RV-7A N747DL flying, RV-10 N104LD flying (just not at the same time ;-) )

    Congrats Dan, you'll need a couple extra days off work for those flyoff days, but it would be great to have you camped by 104LD if you get it completed! See you at the show either way, and welcome to the flying club!

To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Thursday, July 12, 2007 9:28 PM Subject: RV10-List: Surreal experience realized today... Two days ago the FAA came to my hanger and did my inspection, and much to my disappointment my elevator did not have the correct travel so I did not get my pink slip, but I learned a valuable lesson of check and recheck all work, even if you have looked at everything the night before, look again and measure again. Fortunately the FSDO worked with me and was able to have the inspector come out again this morning at 11a.m. N289DT became an airplane, she had her pink slip and operation limitations and after about 8 hours of additional work she was ready for flight..with the Eggenfellner Subaru engine spinning the best Damn looking 4 bladed prop out there, we leaped into the sky and quickly my dream became a reality. She climbed great, we flew together for about 40 minutes, all temps in the green, and just a few small issues to fix tomorrow. As the sun was setting I setup for the approach to the local runway and ended up a little high, remembered that I was only at half flaps and was able to land on the first third of the runway rather than going around. What an experience, I could not stop grinning and can not believe my wife and I built this in our garage, with the help of our good friend Don Gray. Without the love and support of my wife this would never have happened. Thanks to her, Don, Vans, SteinAir, Eggenfellner aircraft and soo many other people I now have one of the coolest airplanes to fly! Talk to everyone later, will have pictures to post tomorrow, as soon as I get caught up on no sleep for 7 days...

    Try contacting Jeff Point from EAA Chapter 18 out of Timmerman. He is a great guy, owns an RV-6 and is working on an 8. He did my first tech inspection. I live in Muskego, about the same distance you are from OSH only south. Jeff lives in Milwaukee. He may agree to fly up and check your work. I don't have his number handy, but anyone at EAA 18 should be able to get it for you. Google EAA Chapter 18.
