    Thanks to all for the nice comments. As for the AFS 4500 things are working well. Working with Rob and AFS with new software updates. They have been great. Love them Rick as for the rudder trim it looks pretty neutral so far just a very little bit of right rudder trim but time will tell. I will keep you updated.

    I got some inspiration for you. I was flying back home yesterday with a 41 Knot tailing cross wind indicating 219 Knots (251 MPH) over the ground. I heard a 737 request a different flight level as he was battling a 108 Knot headwind and the controller told him that was a Cirrus indicating 100 Knots faster than the 737 flying the opposite direction!

    That's great. During my flight my friend was flying chase plane in his Bonanza and he kept asking me to slow down so he could catch me. Of course all the guys on the ground listening started heckling him. You got to love the RV-10.

    And that is before your wheel pants and fairings. It's always fun the tell then you are slowing down but not touch the throttle for the first two requests.

    Subject: Strobes
    Anybody have a tester for a Whelen power supply? Both of my strobes blew this last month. Fuse intact. No obvious wiring loose or frayed. I have 12 volts power at switch module. I replaced the strobes and they worked for a while, then it appears they have blown again. At $160 bucks for new bulbs, I find it hard to just replace them again without testing the power supply. Any suggestions? Robin: great story. I had a 205 knot ground speed coming back from the Texas Tech game to Forth Worth area Saturday night. 1 hr and a couple minutes. 25 knot direct tailwind. :-) It helped make up for the whipping the boys took from the Aggies.

    Subject: Very positive GRT HX review in Kitplanes
    ... and I'm psyched! Having just installed a 3 GRT HX panel in Tigressa, I was very pleased with the write-up in Kitplanes that arrived today. I posted pics and a description of my panel on VAF a couple of days ago here: http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=18921&page=13 Can't wait to go out and start flying this thing after the GRT review and drooling over Geoff's very fine ship.

    I don't know if your strobes blew or just quit working, however I had a similar problem with my whelens and the tech said to increase the size of the ground wire. It worked !!! David R.
