    Subject: XM WX Accuracy
    Thats correct Marcus- The data flows from the XM receiver without any commands after the initial setup. So any box receiving the data has the latest - but its the programmer of the box that chooses what to display. It is my opinion that the Metar data is just as important as the Nexrad visual. And, if your destination airport is close to the edge of a storm the Metar data becomes much more important than the Nexrad. Not having the latest available Metar is a safety issue. I have flown for 30 years and now after having GPS, TIS traffic and weather in my cockpit its mind boggling how I was able to fly with knowing so little. Bill Marcus Cooper <coop85@cableone.net> wrote: Bill, Thanks for the words. My expectations are in line with your info about the METAR updates, but I routinely see ZULU times associated with the METAR info several hours old. I guess I should give Garmin a call as there are certainly times when data that old can be misleading. Marcus From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Bill DeRouchey Sent: Friday, March 28, 2008 8:42 PM Subject: RE: RV10-List: XM WX Accuracy I just finished integrating XM weather into my "for education" glass displays and this topic is fresh on my mind. The Aviator LT package ($29.99) does not provide winds aloft. The technical call regarding why the 396 has confused you should go to Garmin. Real time weather flows from the XM receiver every 5 minutes (almost on the second). TFR data is downloaded every 10 minutes. It is surprising how quickly the TFRs change. The central Metars database is updated from all stations each hour and transmitted every 10 minutes. The ZULU times at the leading edge of the metar should always be less than 70 minutes from actual ZULU time. Bill DeRouchey N939SB, now flying outside the Magenta Marcus Cooper <coop85@cableone.net> wrote: Along similar lines but slightly different, Ive been frustrated at the update rate on my 496 WX on the METAR pages. The map view cloud WX display is usually fairly fresh, but the META page is often several hours old and never seems to update even though the info is typically updated on the hour. Does anyone know how to force an update or improve the update rate? I tried turning the machine off then on but didnt really get a good response. Thanks, Marcus From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Robin Marks Sent: Friday, March 28, 2008 1:03 PM Subject: RV10-List: XM WX Accuracy Dear List, I have been bugged for some time about the Winds Aloft readings I often get on my Garmin 396 using XM WX Aviator LT ($29.95/month) package. I have video footage of me flying in my RV-6A indicating 194 knots (Ground Speed) and a 90 degree Cross Wind component of 4 knots. I also have video of me cursing at the same altitude, same direction, same power settings indicating 140 knots (Ground Speed) which is well below my typical cruising speed and the XM wings aloft is indicating 0 knots. I believe dont actually receive the Winds Aloft data because of my pricing package (Aviator Lt) but I have no idea why the Garmin displays Winds data for me to misinterpret. I contacted XM, Real Weather (I think that is the data providers name) and Garmin with no satisfactory answer. Anyone know what data is showing up in the Garmin Winds data box?

    I just completed my fuel tanks and after I leak check them, would like to prime the exterior surfaces as I have the rest of the project. Should I be concerned if I use rattle can, self-etching primer, and a possible effect on the ProSeal? Thanks, Sean Blair #40225 http://websites.expercraft.com/seanb/

    Subject: Door Seals and adhesion - inquiring mind needs to know
    From: "AirMike" <Mikeabel@Pacbell.net>
    Getting ready to install the door seals on the doors and I have a few thoughts and questions 1. For those who are flying - do the Van's seals work well. Air leaks - where do they occur and are they bothersome? Is it a real problem to get the doors to fit well by installing the door seals after painting. How many CS4 rivets did you use to help with the adhesion and fitting or did you cleco to hold the seal in place? 2. I am not real keen on using silicone sealant on the rubber door gasket. The obvious problem is later paint adhesion. What products other than the Vans recommended silicone did you use? 3. Vans gives you 25 feet of gasket/seal and you need 24 feet (12 for each door) 4. My doors fit pretty well right now. After I put the gasket/door seal on will it mess up my tight fit. Should I stick with the Vans seal or how has the Aircraftdoorseal.com product worked out for those who have gone that route. -------- OSH '08 or Bust Q/B Kit - Doors/windows/fiberglass stuff Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=173617#173617
