    I'm travelling to the US tomorrow having a flight to Los Angeles, we have to visit someone near Bakersfield and plan to drive up to San Francisco and back to LA for some sightseeing, the flight home is on Tuesday 18. What should an outsider see in California? Any ideas?, visiting an RV10 project would be nice as well. If you have suggestions please contact me off list, I will try to have my E-mail up once a day.

    As a lifelong Californian I strongly suggest... NOT visiting Bakersfield. >From Bakersfield drive North East to Yosemite National Park & stay overnight. On your way back from San Francisco drive through Monterey, Big Sur and drive Highway 1 from Monterey to San Luis Obispo. Try and overnight in Big Sur if time permits.

    You should hit the Monterrey Bay aquarium and Carmel if you have time. Drive up Highway 1 to San Francisco for the views....the traffic is really slow though. Zuni Cafe or the Slanted door restaurant in SF are worth finding, as is Irish coffee at the Buena Vista Cafe. The Exploratorium in golden gate park is fun...its a natural sciences museum with lots of hands on exhibits. ----- Original Message ----- From: Henkjan van der Zouw To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Sunday, November 09, 2008 1:03 AM Subject: RV10-List: California I'm travelling to the US tomorrow having a flight to Los Angeles, we have to visit someone near Bakersfield and plan to drive up to San Francisco and back to LA for some sightseeing, the flight home is on Tuesday 18.

    From: "partner14" <building_partner@yahoo.com>
    For those of you working on the fuel lines in the tunnel, you may want to hold off for a couple of days. I have come up with the best solution to the several problems associated with the fuel valve and scat tubing. I will provide pictures early this next week. Pascal Reid and Dennis Mangan have already seen it and were very impressed. Honestly, it's so nice, I hate to share it. Don McDonald #40636 4 steps forward, 2 steps back...... again -------- Don A.

    Subject: Vandalism of my 10
    As some of you know I have my 10 painted in Georgia Bulldog colors. This past weekend we flew it from Atlanta to Lexington KY for the game. As bad luck would have it the FBO tried to tug it to a new parking space and busted the front half of the nose wheel pant. As luck would have it Jim Combs lives there and generously let me have his. It was unpainted and we were able to put it on mine to fly home. However sometime during the game some KY minded fans (Jim and his pals) seem to have changed the colors to reflect their loyalty. It just aint right. Thanks Jim for your help and the wheel pant parts. Gary Specketer 40274 Flying

    Gary, It was great to have you and Brenda visit! The wheel pant was very unfortunate but provided an opportunity that I just could not resist! No one walked past your airplane over the weekend. They stopped looked close and then WOW! So many people looked and then make comments. A couple of fellow RV builders commented that you have raised the bar for our work. I had a bunch of folks comment - Why would anyone buy a certified aircraft? Beats me! And to echo Brenda's comment. Its a good thing Georgia won the football game! Hurry back. Lexington and Kentucky has lots to offer. The ride the Op Technologies EFIS are really nice too!

    Subject: QB Wing Angst- Oil Cannnig
    Hi After carefully researching how to rivet the bottom skins on my QB wings, I have run into the dreaded oil canning on one of the wings. I did dress the forward skin edge as many have recommended and I also found that there was no oil canning problem when the skins were clecoed. However, after riveting one skin using a rivet pattern found on the list, I found that I have a significant oil canning issue developed in one of the "squares" on one wing. The other wing is fine - I came up with a different rivet pattern which yielded much better results. So now I have this problem, is there any acceptable way to deal with it. Then "square" in question deforms inward and stay there unless popped out. I was thinking of riveting a small stiffner through the center of the "square" but am unsure if this is acceptable. Any comments, suggestions, guidance gratefully appreciated. Inquiring minds need to know Les Kearney #40643 - some assembly required

    Les, I went through the same thing. I ended up using proseal to attach a 6" piece of aluminum angle to the inside of the square that was oilcanning. Can't speak for final result as the plane hasn't flown yet but ground test (me pushing on panel) showed any canning was completely gone.

    Subject: Re: QB Wing Angst- Oil Canning
    Tom Thanks for the comments. I have thought about proseal as well. My only concern is I don't know how well the proseal will attach to my primer. I wouldn't want the angle to depart the skin and mess up the controls etc. My inclination would be to rivet the stiffner. With effort I can reach the square and use a pop rivet dimpler. Then again perhaps I am just being a bit to anal.
