Hello,
did you guys cut the CB-1001a front baffle in order to fit the prop governor through
the cut out hole?

Yes, a little. You don't want to remove too much, though, because you
don't want to lose your cooling air through that hole.

Yep, try to trim in the shape of the governor, so that the ramp
kind of form fits to the governor's needs. Leave enough clearance
though to guarantee the lever and bolt won't hang up.
Then, once you have the slot there and it's wide enough, glass in the
ramp ends so the air can't flow up through that area and under
the ramps. You should be able to seal that area pretty well,
even with the clearance hole. The sealing of the air ramps is
a big key to getting things done right.

| Subject: | Diesel engine lawsuit...from avweb... |
Millen Aviation Services of Kent, England, filed a lawsuit on Dec. 17, 2007,
against Diamond Aircraft Industries in Wiener Neustadt, Austria, over their
Thielert diesel-powered DA40s. "The claim for damages is based on our
experience with our two DA40 1.7 TDIs, their extremely poor reliability,
highmaintenance costs, waiting time for spare parts and, our firm belief of their
premature release to market without sufficient research, development and testing,"
company partner Mike Millen said in a prepared statement. Diamond did not
immediately respond to AVweb's request for comment....
Kind of interesting that Millen cites high maintenance and spare parts as a
problem when Thielert and others in the diesel business talk about diesel
engines as having less parts and more reliability...sure would be interesting to
know the exact details...

"BPA" is usually Allen, but I'm sure he likes to be thought of as a looker also.
:D
Back in the early 90's I spent several years flying skydivers in striped out and
beat down 182's. I don't think I'll ever forget that first trip to 11k when
that door popped open. White knuckle experience for sure. Of course after
a couple dozen of those I was side slipping the airplane with my head practically
out the door to see where they were before making a screaming descent. But
I digress.
The good news was that I routinely took people for rides when less than full
(4-5 passengers and 1/4 tanks). Now I wouldn't recommend using a skydiving operation
for an introduction to aviation. After the grueling 30 minutes to alt
in a packed tight 182 with the aircraft clawing its way through the last 3k feet,
I generally took it a little easier on them in decent. Even though I was
sensitive to the experience about to be given there was still more than one passenger
that was a little greener than the people that jumped. ;-)

When I was a kid (LONG time ago)one of the major arterial streets in
Tulsa ended roughly 100 yds from the main runway at KTUL. One of the
great pleasures we had as youngsters was going to Brahms, getting an ice
cream and cruisin' to the airport with Dad on Saturday nights to watch
take offs and landings. Now we have locked gates, limited access, and

At my home airport (FYJ) the anti-terrorist fence ends about 50 feet
each
side of the road leading in. We were issued codes to get through the
$17,000
electric gate. Guests must go through the terminal building ($1.7m) to
get
in. Terrorists evidently don't have the wits to walk around the end of
the
fence so they are barred from evil deeds.
Before the fence, people interested in flying would often stop by and
visit
or bring their kids to watch. No more.

I'm working on the gear leg fairing hinge that holds the trailing edge
together. The plans indicate that the rivets shouldn't be completely set
because it might crack the thin fiberglass material. I suppose that this
would leave a small protrusion above the surface. Has anyone used the
oops rivets here? They are larger diameter (1/8") but have a smaller
head and might not protrude.

Al, whatever rivets you use, consider adding a strip of fiberglass tape
to cover the rivet heads. It will keep them from 'working' later on and
messing up your paint job. After you prime and sand w/ some
primer/filler (Smoothprime) it will look glass smooth.

Albert: I have an rv6a I do mnot know if the fairing is very much different,
but I used the regular rivets, if I recall were the A3-4? they are small..
JUst set them carefully, with enough preasure to get a smooth surface.
I did not have any problem with them. The imprtant thing is to have
a good quality
set of, rivets set heads? ( I got mine from Avery) Adjust the rivet Squezer
so that would not crush the fiber glass. Really it is easier than you think.
I would not use pop rivets, they do not have the strengh under the stress
and tension, if that is the case... also they will never look as good...
Hope this will help you

Albert;
I did the gear fairings last week. I used the 3.5 rivets. Standard. I
had read the note in the plans and used just a gentle squeeze with the
hand squeezer. Had the countersink enough to have the rivet head flush.
Went well. I did not hear any fiberglass cracking or see any problems.

Dave,
Great poem and a refreshing sign of an inspired future aviator (if not
one already) compared to the Fences posts.
If he writes another acro poem with a more positive ending (ie on
maneuvering, cloud dancing, whatever), please post that as well. It was a
very well done and by no means am I indicating anything negative about the
poem, I'd just like to inspire more along the same theme.

| Subject: | Gear Leg Fairing |
Just completing a Conditional on a nine year old RV-6A. By the way, the
Lycosaurus is an O-360 modified for IO service and over 900 hours of
joyous almost maintenance free operations. Compressions were all 80/80
and one was 79/80. One half of the AD426D-3-3.5 rivets have pulled
through the glass on the leg fairings. This is the piano hinge retainer
on the trailing edge. Integrity of the glass was compromised by
hydro-carbon pollution which was to be anticipated.
The discovery was part of the SB pursuit and solution on the Nose Wheel
Fork.
For the RV-10, you guys are still seven years from discovery that the
small countersunk head cannot be retained by just the fiberglass under
normal vibration forces.
For What Its Worth
I recommend an epoxy to metal piano hinge fastening process, backed up
by the rivets. Be sure and leave adequate clearance between contact
with the lower engine cowl and the fairing. The fairing lost all of its
outer epoxy and half the glass to the chafing with the lower cowl.

Albert;
I did the gear fairings last week. I used the 3.5 rivets. Standard. I
had read the note in the plans and used just a gentle squeeze with the
hand squeezer. Had the countersink enough to have the rivet head flush.
Went well. I did not hear any fiberglass cracking or see any problems.

Put a layer of glass between the hinge and the fairing hold with clecos
till it cures then put your rivets in and squeeze as much as you like.
We did this with our 6 after many other builder with great results

I didn't do this on the leg fairings, but I did do it on the cowl hinges
and that was to apply Pro-seal between the hinge and the fiberglass and
then rivet.

Thanks to all who responded to my question. After a call to Pacific

The tray itself is only $35, but the backplate and connector kit adds
another $200 or so.

Great class. One of the best parts was meeting other builders and sharing stories.
The Mexican food was a bonus. There should now be three completed RV10s
on the field - all worth seeing.
Hmmm... Perhaps if there's VFR weather it might be time for the $100 burrito run
in the Citabria to meet some of you guys during the lunch break.

When I pulled the plastic off the windows were the cleanest they've ever
been; I don't remember anything left from the plastic covering. I have had to
wash them since then. I use Plexus (from Aircraft Spruce) and a micro-fiber
cloth (from the aviation department at Walmart). I seem to remember an extensive
thread regarding the different solvents people are using on the plexiglass. I
personally have never used anything but water and plexus on the windows.

I didn't see it on the site either. Because I had already taken my
first walk around the plane looking at the ill fitting glass top, I
decided to call. Dave Saylor said the class was on.
Hope it's not over (or under) subscribed. Suggest you call.
How many RV10ers does it take to stick a top on it?

He flies with me every chance he gets and asks for more. His first trip
to OSH was in a stroller, and he has been there every year with me
since. One year he spent the entire day on my shoulders. He bucks and
guns rivets with me and can tell you the model and manufacturer of the
machine guns in the nose of a B-25.
I hope his poem is not reflective of the workmanship he sees in our
plane!!!!! ;-)
He tends to write about excitement and thrill, no negative taken!!
To me, there are no better blessings in life than kids, especially when

In organizing the video library, I came across my 4 VHS video set of "From

conjunction with the Discovery Wings Channel. It is 13 episodes that
documented the construction of an RV-8 from kit to plane that really spiked
my interest in homebuilding. The videos are in "very good" condition. I
can't say "excellent", 'cuz they've been viewed! They sell for $80 on the
EAA website, but I'll ship 'em to the best offer I get over the weekend.
They're ready for a new home. Do Not Archive.

Hi,
I am trying to get an off from Steinair since last year September.
I wrote 4 emails. I talked to Stein directly and still have no offer.
I had such great experience with him when I purchased the AP servos and the harness.
I can't understand what happened.
Thats my shopping list:
- Audio panel PS Engineering PMS9000B
- Garmin 430
- Garmin SL30
- Garmin 328 (XPDR for Europe)
- Trutrak APRV10 (I purchased the Servos already from you)
Backup instruments (2 1/4) Altimeter, Speed Indicator, Trutrak ADI (2 1/4)
