Everything is now ready with the online info needed to get you started for reserving campsites, and I have a new launch page for everything OSH related for our RV-10 group. http://www.myrv10.com/osh Bob is handling all campsite reservations, so by following the links off of the one above, you can get all paid up for your campsite and ensure you have space. This is done as a non-profit nice thing by Bob and Gary. The only change to previous info we posted is that the paypal fees are often slightly different depending on who sends payment, as there are different fees for different countries, so rather than $8 (of which the normal U.S. person I think cost $8.50 last year), we set it to $10 so that Bob would lose less money. You can, of course, avoid paypal fees by mailing him a check directly. If you choose the mailing option, please make sure to have it to Bob well in advance of 7/20, so he has time to cash it and have your money available to pay the EAA when he registers sites on 7/21. If you are getting a campsite, please read all of the camping related links fully. And if you choose not to pre-register for a campsite, please don't just show up and ask for space on a site...it's not fair to the people planning to have to juggle space on a moments notice. MAKE SURE you give your EAA number to Bob when you pay for your site...he absolutely needs that for your reservation. And, last year I was blindsided a bit by one other issue... to reserve your site you need to be an active EAA Member, so make sure your EAA renewal isn't about to expire. I had to pay a couple renewals on the spot last year in order to reserve sites...we don't want that happening again. For people flying into OSH, if you update your builders list entry you can send me the dates your plane will be displayed, so that others can see it. There are actually people that will plan their OSH schedule around such celebrities as Deems Davis. :) For RV-10 fly-ins, I haven't yet heard from Jeff Point, but I am pretty sure it will be the same as usual...RV-10's parking together due to size, so they will want a good estimate of quantities and dates so they block our RV-10 area accordingly. Parking is free for fly-in homebuilts. If you're camping out by your plane, you will not likely have any need to reserve space. You just get stuck out in the back lot and get whatever spot is available. If you're planning to fly in and camp, use the same system and I can mark you as homebuilt camping and it will let people know where to look for your plane. For people wanting to volunteer for parking RV-10's during the first busy days of the show, again, Jeff hasn't yet requested it but I'm sure he'll appreciate any help you can give, AND you get a T-shirt, so I have links to the volunteer chart for that too. You can email me or use the comments box in the "update builders list" link to pass on the info. The Airventure grounds have changed some since last year, so refer to http://www.airventure.org for info on the changes. We will try to post current photos once sites are blocked, and of course you'll see emails here on status updates as we get closer. It should be a good year for RV-10's with all the growth we've had recently in our population. I hope to see many flying RV-10's out in the lot! -- Tim Olson - RV-10 N104CD ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 07:20:25 AM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Re: Reduction T for AFS manifold and Lightspeed Box From: "orchidman" I got mine from Aircraft Spruce. Get all 3 connectors 1/8". Use a small piece for the tubing from LS (~ 3/8" long) and slip it into one end of a 1/4" piece of tubing that goes to the AFS transducer. Push the 1/4" end with the 1/8" piece from LS onto the T. It will lock on just fine.

I found a 1/4 to 1/8 reducer at Pep Boys. http://wcurtis.nerv10.com/10FFwd/FF1a.html Using a short piece of tubing, I connected the 1/4 to 1/8" reducer to the 1/4" T. The "T" was from Aircraft Spruce. http://wcurtis.nerv10.com/10FFwd/FF1b.html http://wcurtis.nerv10.com/10FFwd/FF1c.html The 1/8" portion goes to the Lightspeed while the 1/4" goes to the bulkhead fitting and the AFS sensor. At the firewall I have a 1/4" bulkhead connector with a restrictor (drilled rivet porsealed in place) going to the manifold pressure port.

Anyways, I bought the Vans fuel tank test kit. The kit is fine, but it is hard to find a leak-proof balloon. All the balloons seem to sag after a bit causing you to worry if it is leaking or not. you really need to use a mylar balloon and helium. Anyway, I have the wings temporarily mounted with hardware store bolts, so I took the bull by the horns today and filled one tank with auto gas. This should provide definitive evidence of any leak. Figure that I will drain it and place the fuel in the other tank to test it. PS: Does anyone know of a fuel dye that will not mess up my fuel system when I put it in my Toyota SUV??? -------- OSH '08 or Bust (busted) be there someday Q/B Kit - FWF end game Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=249742#249742 ________________________________ Message 14 ____________________________________ Time: 08:25:14 PM PST US Subject: Re: RV10-List: Fuel tank leak testing From: Kelly McMullen Marvel Mystery Oil will give it a red tint.
