It seems to me that the two problems with the stock RV10 trim that Tim
outlines should be able to be solved with less expense than a whole new
system (no offence Tim). The resister that William Curtis suggested solves
one of them (speed), can anyone of you electronics guys design a time out
circuit that we could build and add to our Ray Allen system?
William, what value of resister are you starting with to test the system?

Designing the delay function is the easy part (probably 555 timer
available at Radio Shack). What function do you want to 'time out'
(incremental trim???), how long is the time (,25 second??), and what
presently controls that function (switch???)???
I have no clue (I'm not there yet) what the actual functionality of the
servo is. Does it run too fast (the resistor mod) or coast past the
wanted position???? What's the basic complaint???

It's time to pray for a family of one of our own.
Dan Lloyd crashed and was killed in his RV-10 this morning.
HIS WIFE AND KIDS WERE NOT IN THE PLANE, so breathe your sigh
of relief on that point right now. They were to go for a flight
in the next hour. The plane is destroyed and Dan was killed,
however.
This is the only link I have at this time:

Focus your prayers on the family, as they poured themselves into

This is the first known fatal in an RV-10, and it's a very sad

It is with a heavy heart that too received multiple phone calls and took
word of our loss of Dan Lloyd and his wonderful RV-10 as I departed from
work this morning. I too am so thankful his family was not aboard.
I can only pray for the family in this unfortunate time and look back
fondly at his smile and pride during Mike Sausen's picnic this summer
back in Oshkosh, as we all toasted his accomplishments and plans for the
future.
Build safe, Fly wise, seek more training, live long and remember the
best of Dan Lloyd and his gregarious and wonderful personality. Our
family is much to small not to appreciate his contributions.

My last e-mail from him, forgave the debt and committed us to buy each

Subject: | Andair Fuel Valve - Redux |
Thanks to all on list and off list that have helped me with the Andair
Fuel Valve acquisition. I have a valve which I will use. I would like
to use a 6" extension if I can get one easily.
If anyone has a Andair Fuel Selector Extension kit you'd like to sell,
please contact me.
Current status and findings:
After much back and forth and some cancelled orders to Andair, I bought
a unit from Vans:
Part Number: FUEL VALVE FS 20X7T
Quantity: 1
Unit Price: 205.00
Part Number: F SWIVEL TEE
Quantity: 1
Unit Price: 19.50
The 20X7T seems to me to be the best configuration whether you use or
extension or not. Vans said they still had a couple of dozen. The
price is right given current exchange rates with a savings of +$100 over
ordering direct from Andair. That difference is going to filter thru to
Van's inventory at some point so I'd go buy one if in the market. The
swivel T seems to be the optimal accessory for a fuel injected 540
installation.
The feeds from the tank are on elbows but the total cross section is
considerably less than using regular AN elbows threaded into the valve
body. I feel I can use this valve pretty easily with or without an
extension. I'll post a photo once installed. Thanks to all the others
who posted photos - invaluable!

Subject: | Re: Alternate static switch |
The switches are readily available at McMaster-Carr (McMaster.com), which is a
great store to work with and they have an incredible inventory. I just got the
6791T13 which has the plastic toggle switch. The 6791T11 and 6791T12 have the
metal switches.
I was hoping that the plastic switch would look more like the 'standard' electrical
"bat" switch. It is similar but the handle is slightly narrower and longer.
It will still look good in the panel but will need to be placed out of the
way so it isn't accidentally switched on (open).
These are a very cool solution for an alternate static switch and reasonably priced.

A ton of bricks is right. The hardest part is thinking about how his family signed
the inside of the aircraft during construction and how proud he was of Trish
for jumping in all the way on the build. I'm lost for words, God speed Dan.

This hit me like a ton of bricks. Dan - was my friend, (I suspect
everyone who met him felt that way). He was full of enthusiasm and
encouragement. I owed him a Sundae for not being ready for Copperstate.
My last e-mail from him, forgave the debt and committed us to buy each
other sundaes to honor the completions on his planned trip out West.
I miss you Dan. Fly high.

I met Dan at Osh this year and it was like meeting an old friend. I talked to him
on the phone many times since and he was always eager to share information
and give me encouragement. I liked kidding him about his paint job. I will miss
him. I will certainly be praying for his family.

Never met Dan, never talked to him, but he was a part of an extended family
that we've become. This just hits in the pit of your stomach. We have all
been holding our collective breaths, I believe, that this email message
would eventually be delivered, hoping it would be delayed for a long, long
time, and perhaps never come. I am so sorry it was Dan; that it would be
any one of us.
Two things that come to mind. Tomorrow, I'm going to go fly. I'm going to
get up into that wonderful sky and I'm going to say my prayer for Dan and
his family there, where the words belong. Second, I ask someone here who
knew Dan and his family, and who might gently enquire as to where I can send
a donation, to let me know. You can do it offline or let the list know.
We are having the NW RV-10 Fall dinner soon, and we will take a moment at
that time to wish Dan God Speed, as well.

Dan was going to stop by sometime so that I could look at his plane.
I have this terrible thought that "If I didn't ask him, maybe it
wouldn't have happened..." Kinda silly, but can't shake the feeling.
This is the second friend of mine who has died in a crash. The first one
was on a first flight around 1995. It spooked me a bit...
I don't think I can get back to building for a while.
God Speed.

This is a truly sad day for our family. Part of me knew it was inevitable
and part of me cannot believe that we have lost one of our fellow builders.
I can't imagine what it could be like for Dan's family. The pursuit that
brought him so much joy and then this. I can only hope that he had totally
experienced the thrill of accomplishment and creating his dream before
moving on. Our prayers go out to his family and all of those who feel the
loss.

As a group we share more than conversation and information, we share a comm
on dream and love. It is this commonality that draws us together. It also i
ncreases the pain of loss. The missing man formation has always touched som

Our plane was in Vans booth during OSH and I watched as Dan taxied up and parked
just behind the booth. After things settled a bit I went over and listened as
he talked to several people. I also talked to him briefly at Vans dinner. He
seemed like a gentle soul.
Condolences to the family and those that knew him well.

Subject: | Re: Pray for Dan's family |
I too am saddened by the loss of Dan. I don't think I ever met him, but
like many others I felt I knew him. He was part of our extended
family. So, to remember Dan, I went through my archives and read many
of his posts. He sure did contribute and help many of us.
So as a tribute, below are a collection of his emails.
*To start off, here is is last post to the list, from yesterday:*
On mine the cups went up about halfway, and the springs really had to be
compressed to fit at all. I made the angle spacers, and tried to screw
everything together repeatedly before I finally figured out how to get
it all to work. The easy way to do it, is to put all three through the
face plate and set it on the bench, put springs on the screws, backing
plate on, and compress the springs until they just seat in the nut
plates. Then this is the hard part, slide the whole assembly to the side
of the bench and as one screw is exposed get a screwdriver on it and
hold the pressure. Do this for each of the three and it works. The hard
part is then getting the angle spacers to line up, but work with it.
Dan
N289DT RV10E Flying
*Did anyone at OSH this year take Dan up on use of his wife's Expedition:*
We will have our Expedition, and will be happy to coordinate picking
your stuff up and moving it back and forth for you.
Dan
The RV10 is large, but it does not have a trailer hitch, and the pop-up
is too big to fit into the baggage area, so because we will be there the
whole week my wife offered to drive up and meet us there.
I SHOULD be there with the RV10E and the Expedition.
Dan
Keep in mind I am a glutinous American, so why only take one, I will be
taking both the RV10E and the Expedition, it is my right to burn as much
fuel as possible on a trip!
Dan
Maintenance crew, now you are funny, it is to carry the cotton baby
diapers to wipe off all the drool and fingerprints everyone will be

Dan
*Dan sure did love his RV-10
Here's one from transition training, which was his first flight in the 10*
Hey guys,
I have spent the past day out in Oregon with Mike Seager and flying the
factory 10. I now have 3 hours in type and 15 landings. I have two more
days to fly with him and try and get my mind wrapped around this fast
bird. I know many of you have 4/6/7/8 time, and the 10 is not the same,
but all I can say is WOOHOO! Put the throttle in and it instantly leaps
in the air, blink and we are passing through 2k ft. We flew North and
trued out over 200MPH,
did I say this plane is incredible?? 2.5 years and I am in the home
stretch, and I can not wait to fly my own, and finally report my first
flight.
I know it sounds funny, but we chose to build the 10 without ever having
been in one, and all of expectations have been met and exceeded. For
those of you in the same boat as myself, 150 hrs in SPAM cans, I can not
stress the value of transition training and spending the time necessary
to get used to these planes. Things are happening so fast that it is
difficult at first, but after several hours with Mike I am starting to
feel that with a couple hundred more I might make an RV pilot. One thing
that I find very funny is that I have heard about P-factor and the need
for right rudder, and thought I knew about it, but the first time you
put the throttle to 260 HP you quickly realize what you had no clue
about!!! Get the transition training so you are ready.
While I have been out here I have met a couple of the guys and toured
Vans factory, too cool to say the least. But other than flying the 10,
the most memorable part of the trip is the hospitality of Ed Hayden, he
helped me around town, and took an afternoon to show me his project.
What a plane, all the bell's and whistles and then some! I can not wait
to reciprocate when he comes to town. It is the builder community that
makes this so much fun and Ed is a pillar of the community making us
feel welcome!
THX
Dan Lloyd
N289DT RV10E Finally I can say finishing up!!!
...BUT with everything being said about costs, planning and such, lets keep
in the perspective that there is not a better feeling than the first
time you take off in a plane you built in your garage, it makes
everything else a mute point. No matter what you have to do, collect
aluminum cans if you have to! Build one and fly it, it is definitely
worth the heartache and frustration along the way!
Dan
N289DT RV10E flying
*Dan encoring us on:*
Congrats Tom, and we look forward to hearing about your progress. If you
want to have your wife talk to Trish feel free to call and they can
brainstorm on how each team member can participate. Each of our kids got
to sign the inside of every structure they worked on, with name, date
and age. Even the younger kids can participate by handing tools, sorting
pieces etc.
Give us a call, and I would be happy to fly up and give you guys some
motivational rides and get everyone excited about the adventure ahead!
Dan
N289DT RV10E Flying
*Here's one for you Deems:*
Hang in there Deems, you are getting close! After 10.6 hours and 68
landings logged, I can say this plane is worth it. It will be everything
you wanted and more. Now I just need to get home and git'r'done too. I
heard you were coming up to the dinner in a couple of weeks, make sure
to get Randy and others to give you a ride for motivation. This is when
you need it most to get you over the hump!
Dan "starting the up hill push to finish"
N289DT RV10E
*and the last one, Dan asking us to be safe:*
You need to be careful on this, allot of people follow this list and
read your recommendations on both safety of flight issues, as well as
equipage for IFR, but they do not know you do not have a pilots license
and do not have any IMC time, to make this type of comment could lead
allot of low time pilots to believe that they can get by without
training. When I got the transition training from Mike and let him
review your comment he stated that even he, as the pilot with the "most
RV time around" would not get into a new plane and fly when/if there is
transition training available, even he would take several hours and
learn the intricacies of the new plane.
I can not stress the value of transition training enough, regardless of
how much time you have, this is why most insurance agencies will not
insure without dual time. We do not want to end up like the Lancair guys
and have our insurance so high it is unaffordable. We are building plans
valued north of $100k and in the scheme of things transition training is
a very low cost item to help ensure a successful first flight.

This is truly the most sad news I have heard since I started my project. It
is a tragedy in every way.
Dan contributed hugely to this list which has been instrumental to countless
RV-10's. It is at least nice to know that a little bit of Dan will live on
in many RV-10s where the builders have applied something from his
experiences. Mine is certainly in that list.
I am sure that when mine is flying, he will be in my thoughts often.
I wish his family all the support they need to get through this extremely
difficult time as best they may. They will all be in my prayers.

and the kids through the next few days and the funeral. Who of you out
there lives close to Dan's home town and is able to attend the funeral? We
need to be able to represent the multitude of us who cannot attend. It will
be very important to Trisha that she knows that she has an extended family
who are grieving along side her.
Can anyone provide me with Dan's home address so that I can get a sympathy
card in the mail? I would also appreciate the funeral details so that
flowers can be arranged. What do you think about an arrangement from the
matronics group?

Larry - what a wonderful tribute to Dan's perpetual spirit. I can still
remember his big smile, the pride of completion and the times we shared
discussing mods to make this kit even better for many. Here are two
pictures which capture just a glimpse (for those who missed out). I
even found postings that we shared below the radar screen on the use of
Solidworks. He was always willing to discuss, to share and to dream
together. He could often be found in a "Flying High Sky" blue or
"Arrest Me for Dreaming" red t-shirt.

I agree with Tim, seems like a lot of geeks are into
plane building,
maybe we like the many hours of alone time in the
garage?
What do you need on solid works? We use it here at
Werner and have 20 seats. Let me know Dan
I also agree with what is here. I am looking at an
alternative engine, and am very interested in exploring this avenue.
Things that would motivate me are test cell running to prove TBO, and
number of Aircraft installed on, I realize to break into the market
place you would need Beta testers, I am willing to do that beta testing,
but would be have to be at manufactures expense. If I am willing to use
my airframe, the least they could do is provide the engine for testing/
proof of concept. Dan 40269

Camp Condrey - OSH '07"
I will continue to cling to the memory of his infectious smile as we
talked confidentially of renegade builders, unusual techniques and bold
ideas for many product improvements. He was my idea of a REAL
Experimental/Amateur Aircraft Builder with passion in his every breath
and the desire to make another step to "Living the Dream".

I too am saddened by the loss of Dan. I don't think I ever met him, but
like many others I felt I knew him. He was part of our extended
family. So, to remember Dan, I went through my archives and read many
of his posts. He sure did contribute and help many of us.
So as a tribute, below are a collection of his emails.
*To start off, here is is last post to the list, from yesterday:*
On mine the cups went up about halfway, and the springs really had to be
compressed to fit at all. I made the angle spacers, and tried to screw
everything together repeatedly before I finally figured out how to get
it all to work. The easy way to do it, is to put all three through the
face plate and set it on the bench, put springs on the screws, backing
plate on, and compress the springs until they just seat in the nut
plates. Then this is the hard part, slide the whole assembly to the side
of the bench and as one screw is exposed get a screwdriver on it and
hold the pressure. Do this for each of the three and it works. The hard
part is then getting the angle spacers to line up, but work with it.

*Did anyone at OSH this year take Dan up on use of his wife's
Expedition:*
We will have our Expedition, and will be happy to coordinate picking
your stuff up and moving it back and forth for you.
Dan
The RV10 is large, but it does not have a trailer hitch, and the pop-up
is too big to fit into the baggage area, so because we will be there the
whole week my wife offered to drive up and meet us there.
I SHOULD be there with the RV10E and the Expedition.
Dan
Keep in mind I am a glutinous American, so why only take one, I will be
taking both the RV10E and the Expedition, it is my right to burn as much
fuel as possible on a trip!

*Dan sure did love his RV-10
Here's one from transition training, which was his first flight in the
10*
Hey guys,
I have spent the past day out in Oregon with Mike Seager and flying the
factory 10. I now have 3 hours in type and 15 landings. I have two more
days to fly with him and try and get my mind wrapped around this fast
bird. I know many of you have 4/6/7/8 time, and the 10 is not the same,
but all I can say is WOOHOO! Put the throttle in and it instantly leaps
in the air, blink and we are passing through 2k ft. We flew North and
trued out over 200MPH,
did I say this plane is incredible?? 2.5 years and I am in the home
stretch, and I can not wait to fly my own, and finally report my first
flight.
I know it sounds funny, but we chose to build the 10 without ever having
been in one, and all of expectations have been met and exceeded. For
those of you in the same boat as myself, 150 hrs in SPAM cans, I can not
stress the value of transition training and spending the time necessary
to get used to these planes. Things are happening so fast that it is
difficult at first, but after several hours with Mike I am starting to
feel that with a couple hundred more I might make an RV pilot. One thing
that I find very funny is that I have heard about P-factor and the need
for right rudder, and thought I knew about it, but the first time you
put the throttle to 260 HP you quickly realize what you had no clue
about!!! Get the transition training so you are ready.
While I have been out here I have met a couple of the guys and toured
Vans factory, too cool to say the least. But other than flying the 10,
the most memorable part of the trip is the hospitality of Ed Hayden, he
helped me around town, and took an afternoon to show me his project.
What a plane, all the bell's and whistles and then some! I can not wait
to reciprocate when he comes to town. It is the builder community that
makes this so much fun and Ed is a pillar of the community making us
feel welcome!
THX
Dan Lloyd
N289DT RV10E Finally I can say finishing up!!!
...BUT with everything being said about costs, planning and such, lets
keep
in the perspective that there is not a better feeling than the first
time you take off in a plane you built in your garage, it makes
everything else a mute point. No matter what you have to do, collect
aluminum cans if you have to! Build one and fly it, it is definitely
worth the heartache and frustration along the way!
Dan
N289DT RV10E flying
*Dan encoring us on:*
Congrats Tom, and we look forward to hearing about your progress. If you
want to have your wife talk to Trish feel free to call and they can
brainstorm on how each team member can participate. Each of our kids got
to sign the inside of every structure they worked on, with name, date
and age. Even the younger kids can participate by handing tools, sorting
pieces etc.
Give us a call, and I would be happy to fly up and give you guys some
motivational rides and get everyone excited about the adventure ahead!
Dan
N289DT RV10E Flying
*Here's one for you Deems:*
Hang in there Deems, you are getting close! After 10.6 hours and 68
landings logged, I can say this plane is worth it. It will be everything
you wanted and more. Now I just need to get home and git'r'done too. I
heard you were coming up to the dinner in a couple of weeks, make sure
to get Randy and others to give you a ride for motivation. This is when
you need it most to get you over the hump!
Dan "starting the up hill push to finish"
N289DT RV10E
*and the last one, Dan asking us to be safe:*
You need to be careful on this, allot of people follow this list and
read your recommendations on both safety of flight issues, as well as
equipage for IFR, but they do not know you do not have a pilots license
and do not have any IMC time, to make this type of comment could lead
allot of low time pilots to believe that they can get by without
training. When I got the transition training from Mike and let him
review your comment he stated that even he, as the pilot with the "most
RV time around" would not get into a new plane and fly when/if there is
transition training available, even he would take several hours and
learn the intricacies of the new plane.
I can not stress the value of transition training enough, regardless of
how much time you have, this is why most insurance agencies will not
insure without dual time. We do not want to end up like the Lancair guys
and have our insurance so high it is unaffordable. We are building plans
valued north of $100k and in the scheme of things transition training is
a very low cost item to help ensure a successful first flight.

First of all I would like to say that I was fortunate to meet Dan in
person last year at Oshkosh and we are all lesser for this loss. Dan was
a larger than life ambassador for all of the builders out there who
were looking at alternative engines to power our RV-10s. He was quick
with the help and didn't ask anything in return. Both Lucy and I will
miss him.
What we as a group need to be looking into shortly is how to support

I would suggest we all make the effort to send at least a card to the
family, nothing speaks louder than to receive hundreds of cards of
sympathy with something nice to say about a lost one.. Shouldn't be hard
to do for Dan.

Subject: | Pray for Dan's family |
Both my son and I took Dan up on his offer. He was gracious enough to offer
us a ride to Michael Sausen's house at OSH. While I met Dan and his family
the week before in Greenville as he was finishing his RV-10, we got to know
the family better on the hour drive to Michael's.
His last email to me on Wednesday was:
"I would definitely knock out the fiberglass as you go, I waited to the end
and was so fed up with it that I got bummed out and am still avoiding the
tail. One thing to make sure of, that I saw during Rick's build and mine is
that the Elevator horn fairings do not line up well and require work on the
trailing edge, so fix these by cutting them flush on the trailing edge and
feathering in and taping the line all the way around. I saw how Rick did it
and will do the same on mine. I do not like that transition between the
fairing and the elevator, so I am going to hide it "
Our prayers are with Dan and his family.
