Thanks for your reply. Based on your reply, I was not clear if your AK-451 was
the same footprint and size as the AK-450.
Will the AK-451 support an RS-232 Serial In Line from a Panel Mounted GPS so that
the AK-451 would transmit the last known Long and Lat from the GPS Data?
I would like to see the AK-451 read this GPS Data and then save the most recent
copy that it would then use if the ELT was activated.

Dear Ray :
Thank you for your Email today,
We shall manufacture the ELT 406 MHz in the next few months. We are now at the
last step of FAA TSO Certification stage for ELT 406 MHz P/N AK-451.
However, we have been contact with the FAA almost everyday and confirmed that there
will not have any requirement from FAA about ELT 406 MHz in 2008. May be
there are strong opposition from AOPA.
The requirement of ELT 406.0 MHz will be for the Marine only in 2009. The Military
Satellites of 121.0/243.0 MHz will be available after 2009 for sure.
If we distribute the new ELT 406.0 MHz P/N AK-451 with the same footprints, same
sizes as our ELT AK-450 for easy retrofit direct replacement.
We also have a program of exchange to ELT 406.0 MHz P/N AK-451 and credit to your

With regard to the GPS location data option, has anyone seen any statistics
on the benefit of this? How accurate is the satellite positioning on the
406 mhz units? Is the accuracy such that the GPS link makes a big

I think it could make a big difference in time needed to locate a
beacon. Older ELT's bsically just send out a toned signal. You need
direction finding radio equipment to find the bearing to the
transmitter and then triangulate that with one or two other DF
stations to find the location. This could take some time. Also,
transmitter power and terrain may limit the effectiveness of the DF
equipment recieving the signal. As far as accuracy of the GPS reading,
the ELT itself will contain a GPS reciever that should be as accurate
as any other TSO'd GPS unit. The ELT signal will contain a data stream
containing the GPS coordinates that is relayed by satellite to the
central processing center. Once the coordinates are decoded, this can
be relayed to the rescue units. This should save quite a bit of time.
Of course, the accuracy of the GPS data the ELT transmits is a
function of how many GPS satellites it "sees" at any one time (need at
least three), just as it is with any GPS unit. In a crash I suppose
this could be an issue.

>From what I have read, GPS data get's you a couple things. First and foremost
it gives rescuers immediate coordinates to begin their search within a 100 meter
radius. With just the 406 beacon, it will take several passes of low orbit
SAR satellites to narrow down your location using Doppler Shift. The feds also
say accuracy using DS is 1-3 miles, time & samples variable.

Thanks for your reply. Based on your reply, I was not clear if your AK-451
was the same footprint and size as the AK-450.
Will the AK-451 support an RS-232 Serial In Line from a Panel
Mounted GPS so that the AK-451 would transmit the last known Long and Lat
from the GPS Data? I would like to see the AK-451 read this GPS Data and
then save the most recent copy that it would then use if the ELT was
activated.
Thank You

Dear Ray :
Thank you for your Email today,
We shall manufacture the ELT 406 MHz in the next few months. We are now at
the last step of FAA TSO Certification stage for ELT 406 MHz P/N AK-451.
However, we have been contact with the FAA almost everyday and confirmed
that there will not have any requirement from FAA about ELT 406 MHz in 2008.
May be there are strong opposition from AOPA.
The requirement of ELT 406.0 MHz will be for the Marine only in 2009. The
Military Satellites of 121.0/243.0 MHz will be available after 2009 for
sure.
If we distribute the new ELT 406.0 MHz P/N AK-451 with the same footprints,
same sizes as our ELT AK-450 for easy retrofit direct replacement.
We also have a program of exchange to ELT 406.0 MHz P/N AK-451 and credit to
your old ELT AK-450.
Please accept our sincere appreciation for your interest in AMERI-KING'S
products. I'll look forward to hearing from you soon.

I was hoping AmeriKing would create a 406 Mhz ELT using the same package as
the AK-450 ELT. Do you have any info you can share on this topic?

I'm currently paying for two hangars and trying to fly both my -10 and -7A often
enough to keep them both healthy. The -10 isn't painted yet and the plan is
to keep the -7A at least until the -10 comes back from the paint shop. My current
experience is similar to that already posted -- whenever I really want to
go somewhere for travel purposes, the -10 is the hands down winner. A real
sweetheart of a cross country traveler in terms of comfort, speed, and information
systems.
But the -7A is such a hoot, with its 2500 fpm climb rate, aerobatic capability,
and responsive controls. I just love taking the -7A out on a yank and bank excursion
with a few aileron rolls after sitting in the plush cockpit of the -10
for a long x-country. When I take up Boy Scouts or Young Eagles and give them
the controls, its always in the -7A since the experience is not unlike an aerial
motorcycle, where the -10 is more like an aerial Lexus.
Since both of them are paid for, the controlling factor will almost certainly be
the long term maintenance. Both need attention, and time spent doing maintenance
is time not flying; hangar queens definitely don't age gracefully.
Having two airplanes definitely teaches you the meaning of the term "possessions"
-- they are things that possess you!

Even though I'm not yet flying. I've considered this myself. I just
can't conceive of selling my -10. just toooo much love has gone into it,
not to mention the sweat and tears. But the desire for a 'toy' never
goes away. I've considered a partnership in a -7 / -8, particularly if
the other partner/s held the repairman's certificate.
anybody in the PHX area want to share a -7 / -8?

I'm actually considering building a LongEZ once the -10 is done. Not too expensive
to build and cheaper to fly with speed equivalent to the 10. Of course I
have to do that pesky house remodel first in order to appease the wife. :-)
Bring on the fiberglass!

| Subject: | Firewall Sealant |
I'm about to order my CS 1900 Firewall Sealant as I've reached the
point of riveting the forward rib subassemblies to the firewall and
the final instruction on page 27-6 is to "proseal any gaps around the
F-1001K Recess" etc.
While I'm doing that, would it make sense to put a thin coat across
the flush rivet lines on the engine side of the firewall?

The final texture of the CS 1900 is much different from the other
products.
Reserve your decision until after you watch the dried product on the rib
subassemblies. Then you should have no regrets.
Fire Annunciation, Fire Suppression, walking away for another day is

| Subject: | Fitting cabin top |
I'm now to the point of fitting the fiberglass top to the fuse. Like
most of us with minimal fiberglass experience, I approached the fitting
with some trepidation. I wanted to pass along a way to help get
started. I did the rough cutting to within 1/16 th to 1/8 th of the
line around the doorsill. I then got some help and tried to muscle it
into place. After about two tries it became quickly obvious that about
1/4 inch needed to come off from the width of the door. The fiberglass
had to be trimmed just about to the curve on each side. It also becomes
obvious that the first place it must fit is between the door jambs.
Rather than take the top on and off with each bit of sanding, I thought
the best way might be to make a door sill template. Overall, I think it
speeded up the process as it "only " took 4 tries to get the top to
start fitting inside the sills.
To make the template, first of all don't try to measure anything.
Reverse engineer it. Take a 3/4 inch piece of plywood or MDF ( slightly
larger than the opening which is about 37 x 12 inches) and get (3) 12
inch x 2 inch boards.
Take one board and use a single screw along the base. This will support
the backer board along the sill. Now take another one of the 12 inch
boards and screw it vertically so it can be clamped to the back
upright. Make sure it is above the small flange in the corner. Now put
the third board up against the front upright and mark it's position
(outline ). Remove the boards and screw the front upright in place.
Now you have the width and size of the opening.
Take 3 more 2 inch wide boards. One about 40 inches long and two more
12 inches. Use the long one as the base and use the uprights from the
template to hold the vertical 12 inch boards. Screw them into the base
of the 40 inch board and then add some scrap triangles in the corner to
hold them square.
You now have a template that you can fit over the fiberglass while you
are sanding/trimming. Once the template will slide over the fiberglass
top it will fit between the door jambs and you can then see how the
joggle fits and needs to be trimmed and see how you need to radius the
corners.
I'll put some pics on my site at mykitlog.com in the next few days. I
just realized my access to the site was down. If anybody is about to
fit their top and needs pics I'll send them to you. Too many and too
large for the list.
