What Michael said.
In my case, the VP-200 is on during start and that is used as the primary engine
instrument (fed by the EIS). And, I'd prefer to look at graphical engine gauges
instead of the character display on the EIS.

| Subject: | Electric Rudder Trim |
I am very pleased with the spring bias rudder trim I installed last summer.
It was easy to fabricate, install, and required no modifications to the
rudder. It has adequate range for high attitude climbs and fast descents.
Beats having to hold rudder pressure for long periods of time. I used the
aileron trim servo kit and installed it just behind the baggage bulkhead
against the bottom skin straddling a stiffener. An additional cable connects
to the rudder horn on one side, wraps around a pulley, to the springs at the
servo and back to the rudder horn on the other side. Pictures available to
any who are interested.

It isn't clear if CHT's are affected mainly because of the large drop in
OAT. To recap, my original problem was high oil temps in the summer when OAT
would routinely be well above 100F. The engine is a IO-540-exp with 10:1 and
310hp. I tried many things but lastly added a second oil cooler on the right
side. It was installed just like the left side cooler. Unfortunately,
gathering comparison data is difficult since OAT's have since followed the
stock market (ie, down by almost 50%) but it does not appear that rerouting
air to the new oil cooler has affected CHT's. I didn't think it would be any
different since that is the way we cool the left side oil cooler. Now if
this southern Arizona winter weather would just go away and get back to the
100+ temps I need for testing. 70 degree weather is just a pain.

Albert,
Did that change the cylinder head temps at all?

After reading the article in Kitplanes by Sam Buchanan, I got interested in
this system. (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_Position_Reporting_System)
A buddy had a license so we installed the equipment ($300) and have been
trying it out. I was so pleased with the results that I took the test for a
Technician class ham license and now have my own call sign and moved the
transmitter to my aircraft. Pretty neat. You can log onto the internet and
see the location in real time.

I'd love to see pictures! I've modified my -10 so that the rudder
cables hook to the pedals inside the tunnel, and will add a loop to tie
the rudder pedals together. The trim is the only thing left!

| Subject: | Garmin 430 WX protocol |
Hi all,
I'm new to the list and I have a question (sorry if it's a bit off-
topic) - does anybody know where I can find out more about the
protocol for weather display that is used on the Garmin series of GPS
receivers? For example, I know it is possible to display satellite
weather that has been received by a Garmin GDL-69 (satellite receiver)
on the display of Garmin 430.
Does anyone happen to know the protocol / format for the communication
between the GDL-69 and the Garmin 430? Is it documented anywhere, or
perhaps an open standard (e.g. ARINC?). I have done a bit of google
searching but didn't turn anything up.
Thanks very much in advance.
Regs,
Dave

For those of you looking for the overhead console, its finally ready and fitting
perfect to look at it go to nonstopaviation.com or I believe you can also contact
Stein from SteinAir because he is putting together a package deal to include
our overhead with his vents, lights and switches. Sorry for the advertisement
but I know a lot of people where looking for an overhead.

Dave,
I don't think they would publish that. But we could hook up a port monitor between
the two devices and document the protocol. We could then emulate the GDL-69
using a much cheaper WxWorks receiver.
Then again, we could emulate the Garmin with a much cheaper computer, and then...
:) oh, never mind... :)
Regards,
Lenny
