I want to run flexible fuel lines from just outside the fuselage to make
the wing root connection. Has anyone else done similar? Length of line
used? Source?
Thanks,

I can't offer an opinion on this one quite yet, since I'll just be putting
on the top skins in the next week or so.
I just had the local EAA chapter over to visit my project. One of the
questions I was asked was why the RV-10 didn't require the use of a wing
jig. Anyone know the answer?
It appears to for the other RV models, building a wing jig and getting
everything straight was one of their more frustrating tasks. The 3 or 4
builders that had completed both RV-7s and RV-8s were surprised that the
instructions to build the RV-10 wing were just to clamp to the work bench.

No Jig is needed and the wing is dead on because of the prepunch holes.

Bob:
We don't need a jig because of the matched holes and the accuracy of
placement on the parts. When they all line up, the wing is straight.
Probably _better_ than any jig we could build at home.

| Subject: | HS Attachment Bars |
All,
I just started my tailcone, and when I went to drill the HS-1011C
horizontal stabilizer attachment bars, I found that the pre-punched holes
were conical in shape. That is, one side of the hole is a bit larger than
the other, larger than the #30 bit used to match drill. I understand that
this is probably the result of punching a hole through such a thick piece,
but it seems like this would leave a lot of slop for the rivet. Just wanted
to check whether others noticed this as well? Should the larger side of the
hole be put against the bulkhead?

Last year when I fly down, we landed at Bartow (KBOW) because w
e arrived when the show was still on. We killed time on the ground there u
ntil the Show was over than we refueled (Cheapest gas around here as well)
and headed back into he air. Like others have said, it took about 30 minut
es for the departures to finish before they would let arrivals begin, which
was around 30 minutes after the show. It was a nice tour flying in and ar
ound Lakeland while listen to the radio for when they were going to start a
ccepting arrivals.
Thank You

| Subject: | Rivetting Bottom Skins |
Bruce,
My wife and I did them on the table. The first one took forever but the
second one we did in about half a Saturday. We attribute the difference in
speed to getting a tungsten bucking bar. You can borrow mine if you want.
I will gladly come help you out with a few days advanced warning. I also
have a couple different sets that work great around the flap attach
brackets.
Some things to think about.
1) Have you planned your pitot location and tubing and wiring and if
you use the gretz where you are going to mount the circuit board?
2) Have you run conduit for wiring up lights?
3) Have you run tubing for the AOA ports (if your using AFS's AOA)?
4) Have you built your control rod tubing yet and fit it?

For those that have completed the rivetting of the bottom skins of the
wings, did you leave the wings in the cradle? or, did you do as the plans
say (page 20-5, step 2) and lay them on the table?

Yes, these parts first appear on page 10-3. These are the heavy tapered
bars that will attach the HS to the tailcone. This would be a bad place for
failure to occur.
I will give Vans a call to see what they say.

I just finished the install of my Matco parking brake.
Went really well. At least I will see when I hot up the brake system
1. I used an unused bracket (F1048F) from my QB kit - riveted
2. Matco brake from Matco (also from Vans) $115-120 with shipping
3. A few plumbing fittings modified from Spruce ($15-20)
4. A CT-A740 Cable from Vans ($25)
5. One #2 cushion clamp (in FWF/Electrical kit)
6. One Bowden cable end fitting (Vans $6.00)
Ran the cable to the F-1002-L frame and terminated it there.
I figure that down low at your ankles - it is out of the way (recessed)

When I tested mine, the balloon deflated after an hour. Turns out the

Service Ceiling, what is it?
My definition, highest altitude you can maintain 100 foot rate of climb.
I tested it today, these results are not scientific, but it looks like
20,100 for my airplane fully loaded to max. Very close to the aft CG. No
wheel fairings.
Had a break in the weather this morning, so I ran to the airport and did my
service ceiling testing. Got a block of airspace over the Ogden VOR, the
Salt Lake Controllers are great. The airplane performed well, it was my
first flight at gross weight and I really did not see very much difference
in handling. The EFIS showed 100 knot winds at altitude and thus I was
almost standing still while I was headed west....I should of looked at my
ground speed I am sure it was close if not 0 at times.
It looks like Vans numbers are right on for me.

Thanks for reporting the performance. Gross Weight, Aft CG and required

Was that an Aerosport IO-540D4A5 or a Barrett 9:1 Cold Air with Forsling

Thanks for reporting the performance. Gross Weight, Aft CG and required
climb margin.
Was that an Aerosport IO-540D4A5 or a Barrett 9:1 Cold Air with Forsling
tuned exhaust?

Service Ceiling, what is it?
My definition, highest altitude you can maintain 100 foot rate of climb.
I tested it today, these results are not scientific, but it looks like
20,100 for my airplane fully loaded to max. Very close to the aft CG.
No
wheel fairings.
Had a break in the weather this morning, so I ran to the airport and did
my
service ceiling testing. Got a block of airspace over the Ogden VOR,
the
Salt Lake Controllers are great. The airplane performed well, it was my
first flight at gross weight and I really did not see very much
difference
in handling. The EFIS showed 100 knot winds at altitude and thus I was
almost standing still while I was headed west....I should of looked at
my
ground speed I am sure it was close if not 0 at times.
It looks like Vans numbers are right on for me.

Thanks for the replies. I think I confused myself when I read the NOTAM
where it mentioned not routinely opening for arrivals until 1830 after the
field REOPENS each day. My hope was to arrive Sat morning before the show
and that's where I got confused thinking the only arrivals all day long
could only be after 1830.
Having said that, a Friday PM arrival may be possible which would be nice.
Thanks again,
Marcus

I'm hoping to get down to Lakeland on Fri or Sat at the end of the show and

to be the case? Seems awfully late in the day to start accepting airplanes
considering how many show up.
The airshow goes to 5:00 and they need to get the departures out ......
before the arrivals ...... is my guess.
Secondly, are most folks planning on parking in homebuilt and camping, or
parking at HBC (homebuilt camping) and living with their airplane? Seems
like this may have been hashed out already so sorry if it's a repeat
question.
I can't help there. I live in a camper the whole week ..... and it's
already onsite.
By the way, there are quite a few changes to the site .... go to
http://www.sun-n-fun.org/content/ and peruse the web site for a lot of info.
I was at the volunteer meeting yesterday, and they've already got about 1/2
of the tents up. Last year they were still getting stuff up on opening
day!!!

Nice job Barry, Congratulations,
re nose wheel,
1. Did you have the steel or aluminum spacers?
2. Did you make any provisions to 'anchor' the spacers so that they

Also VERY interested in hearing any information/data on the cowl/plenum

| Subject: | Primer overhead console and cabin interior |
Dear Listers,
I'm priming the cabin interior and overhead console in preparation from painting
w/ PPG topcoat. The PPG Primer Wash says "not recommended for use on fiberglass".
What to use?
Anyone know if 988 shake and rattle auto body primer would work okay? It seems
to stick pretty well.
Thanks in advance for replies.
Regards,
Jay

I like the 2 part epoxy primers - way better than the rattle can stuff.
I am not so keen on the rattle can stuff as it probably has some oils in it which
may prevent good adhesion later.
I am using Nason (Dupont) products, but a friend of mine is using Sherwin Williams.
If I were starting today, I would go with the SW product as it seems more
uniform. The Epoxies are a pain to mix and spray, but they are tough as nails
when dry

I made no adjustments. Thought I might figure that out tonight, but went
flying instead.....the choices we make. Maybe later this week I will figure
it out. It was cold today, around 33 at takeoff....

You don't use the wash primer on the glass. My painting area of
my site tells about it....I think it's PPG K-36 primer that you
use, mixed as a primer/sealer....where you mix it with paint.
That's the stuff to use for the glass. Actually, you'll use
that on the aluminum after the wash, too....as wash primer isn't
a sealer.
