We will be parked in Homebuilt camping. Plan to arrive on Wednesday. When we are
not shopping, we will be glad to show our plane and answer questions.

For those going to Sun & Fun it does not appear that there is any
problem with the Florida use tax. FMI read:

Subject: | Re: Tailcone attach gotchas |
Yep. Same thing happened to me. I caught it during inspection (and
introspection) before trying to mate the halves.
My QB fuse shipped 11/06.

Subject: | Scat tube questions |
I have the plane power 70 amp alternator. The installation manual
indicates that a 1" scat tube is needed for cooling---and there is a 1"
connection on the back. Where should I get that cooling air?
I also have the Lightspeed ignition for the upper plugs, and that too
asks for a scat tube. Since my console is located aft of the firewall
on the subpanel do I really need the cooling and, if so, where do I get
the cooling air for that item?
Those cooling items brings up another question. We are told that we
have to make our baffling as leak proof (see the last RVator where it is
recommeded to smooth the upper cowling for less leaking) as possible but
then we go and punch these huge holes for the various scat tubes
including the massive one for the oil cooler. I mean what does a
pinhole leak around the prop governor matter when you are leaking huge
amounts thru the various scat cooling holes? What am I missing? Jay
Rowe

I understand the same people who have been ripping off out-of-state aircraft
owners are now saying
"No problem, come on in" (said the spider to the fly)
I'm staying home this year.

Subject: | Re: Scat tube questions |
Tap your alternator cooling air off the right inlet air ramp, you make a va
lid point about sealing a "pinhole" leak. The inlet ramp actually gets it's
air prior to the point that provides pressure to the interior upper high p
ressure portion of=C2-cowl, almost like ram air. Most advice regarding se
aling the upper portion of the cowl are to make sure cooling air goes where
it's meant to go, with 180 kts air being forced into the upper region of t
he cowl, smooth airflow, through the components with the least amount of tu
rbulence is paramount, your goal and I'm sure I'll get singed in the proces
s is smooth airflow to all the areas...seal all the gaps to make that happe
n. I have a baffle on my oil cooler to deflect the air back and down to the
opening behind the cooler=C2-on the bottom cowl... I hope this=C2-will
aid in continuing the smooth airflow through the cooler and out the bottom
aft portion of the cowl.=C2-
