    Interesting. Someone else had mentioned using 1120A311 which I purchased. I have the older green top and find that most of the edges are 1/4" or better. The only section that is consistently less than 1/4" is the bottom sill. I'm guessing that the newer pink top is a bit thinner and more consistent in edge thickness if you had to build them up. I've been trying to figure out how to grind much of my edges down to 3/16" to fit the A311. So, I think I'm going to get 30' of the A411. Given the added thickness of the headliner abric that will be underneath it, I think that will be easier to work with. Thanks Bill Geoff Combs wrote: > This is what I used Danny.

In 2000, it was the cherry on top if you could send digital photos. Now it's 2010 and video is where we are. On a side note, what's 2020? Phil

    Hey Bill, I don't know if the pink canopy is any better in the edges, they are very inconsistent but then again I am using an aftermarket seal. I have been building the "gutter" up with thin strips of fiberglass until it is flat on the outside. When it got close I filled it flat with epoxy and milled glass. You have to use something like glass strips because it has to be structural, you end up trimming so much down on the other side. I was lost for a while and finally started seeing the light at the end of the tunnel when taking off the door a million times and touching up each spot that looked too close or filling anything with a gap too wide. I'm sure a lot of people are much faster at this. I know if I had to do another RV-10 I would do the same seal and it would go a lot faster knowing what I know now. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Mauledriver Watson" <MauleDriver@nc.rr.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 3:32 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Re: doors & insulation > <MauleDriver@nc.rr.com> > > Interesting.

    Here are some pics of mine. I did a similar setup but used two on each side instead of three. I cut my holes close tolerance under the seats and wrapped caterpillar grommets around them. The exiting holes are so tight they can't move. I stuffed two lines in one hole wrapped again with the grommet. Maybe I will abrasion tape around the step where they contact the conduit like you stated. -------- Cust. #40936 RV-10 SB Fuselage N801VR reserved Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=282254#282254 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/dsc05540_151.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/dsc05541_923.jpg

    Subject: Left exhaust hanger
    From: "John Cox" <johnwcox@pacificnw.com>
    For those that want to purchase Vans exhaust hanger kit. I could pick it up at Van's, cut the tube into two pieces and provide two new beads at no cost. The rubber hoses "work harden" over time, they swell and will slip off many prepared tubes. YMMV. The errant aircraft was a ten year old RV-6A built by a repeat offender, tech advisor and RV-10 builder. Five separate fixed brackets would all break after a year or two(Stainless, Titanium, Aluminum... it just did not matter), where attached at the lower side of the right rear cylinder. Vans advice was their flex hose (properly installed) route. First year of installation and the hose slipped right off without proper prep. Scott's method should slow the slipping process. The unfortunate thing was the hot exhaust stack resting on the resin of the fiberglass lower cowl once the connection was freed. Pictures of Deems shows a system which should work just as well. Those with auto or motorcycle experience will know what is meant by a "bead installed" on the hose end of the tubing prior to clamping. The nice thing about Experimental is that everything is Okay cause you the builder set the standard. The bad thing about certificated aircraft is someone defines a single method of compliance and others become liable.

The exhaust stack made contact with the fiberglass lower cowl. A beading tool allowed a quick ridge to be formed on the metal tube stock to capture the hose and clamp.

    Subject: 2020 was Conduit abrasion
    From: "Robin Marks" <robin1@mrmoisture.com>
    Phil, I cannot begin to tell you what we will be doing in 2020 but I know in 2011 we will start filming in 3D as 2010 CES was all about 3D TV's and CES 2011 is already slated for HEAVY 3D video cameras. I suspect in just a few years we will all have OLED tablets or "scrolls" as computers. If you have not seen OLED displays check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbTO5VM6s- Small OLED's started showing up in buttons where the small face of the button is a OLED display showing the status of the button "On" with green background, "off" with red background. Now the buttons have animations and small video loops and one can easily imagine a series of buttons on the panel that when you select for example a Landing Procedure all the appropriate buttons turn a specific color or display or give flashing visual warnings when they are not selected for that specific phase of flight and one button is dedicated to a check list etc... Another really cool item I saw at CES 2010 was a Microsoft Table Top called Surface Touch with full touch to control capabilities. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kr1O917o4jI So for 2020 I expect the entire panel to be one large OLED multi touch display where I can reconfigure my panel any way I wish at home and then load the new configuration into the display by just resting my phone on the surface. When I choose the IFR procedure a large 3D IFR plate is geo referenced on the displayed along with any/all relevant information. Now if I could only get it to perform a perfect hot start.

    Subject: Re: Left exhaust hanger
    Thanks Robin. I think this new setup might work well. Just mocked up now and not final fitted yet. Robin used a clamp around the mount against the firewall, which i had not considered. It actually looks like the better spot for a clamp. There is much more clearance you can easily see in the pics. It is a tight fit for the clamp but you can see the wedge used to give a bit of room. before: http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/A9mT9HXyj7yKkkz3NrP4kQ?authkey=Gv1sRgCI7088GZlYCc2AE&feat=directlink after: http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/-ictyfdhx9QfrQrIAIFkvQ?authkey=Gv1sRgCI7088GZlYCc2AE&feat=directlink The right side is much easier. The left side is more crowded because the 2 4 6 cylinders push the exhaust further aft. However, too far aft, then the oil cooler starts interfering. The sweet spot is definitely smaller on the left side. Jae 40533 Robin Marks wrote: > Same as the right for us. > > Robin > >

    It's 10% of some Plasma's but probably 40% power usage of LCD. Plasma's will soon be banned in California due to their high power consumption in both on & rest mode.

    Yes the plans have you use the cutoff shorter pieces to mark the doors where to hog out fiberglass. It pretty much requires the shorter pieces to be able to install the mechanism and the plans have you install the mechanism to figure out how much material to remove from the door to be able to install the door handle with the full length pieces. If doing it again though I would seriously consider cutting them a bit longer to have more travel for the door pins like was mentioned in the last couple days. -Ben Westfall

    We all got the same response. At least they responded, but I was with Scott, Vans response- As with all Service Bulletins in the certified and experimental world, it is not mandatory that owner/operators comply with them. It is up to the owner to comply or not, at their sole discretion. By issuing this service bulletin, Van's is recommending that it be complied with. Would have like to see the compliance as being "optional" since what Vans is giving us really is not the only solution, there are much better ways to do this, as many of us have already mentioned and their SB is not opening that option with their verbiage.

The point of any SB is to benefit both RV builders/pilots AND Van's Aircraft with increased safety and reduced costs. Most of the complaints we get about SBs list only the builder's personal concerns about difficulty/cost of compliance, or their belief that there is a "better way". We always consider those issues, but we also have to balance them with broader concerns; to maintain Van's Aircraft as a viable company, and to protect it against future liability. There will always be potential for some conflict between these two points of view, which we hope that our customers will understand. As with all Service Bulletins in the certified and experimental world, it is not mandatory that owner/operators comply with them. It is up to the owner to comply or not, at their sole discretion.

    From: "Lenny Iszak" <lenard@rapiddecision.com>
    I just realized the SkyBolts I ordered for the firewall are the floating type. I'm using hinges on the cowl split line. Would the floating type allow the cowling to move away from the firewall creating a bigger gap than what i've been crafting so carefully? Or should I just order the fixed receptacles?

    From: Chris Colohan <rv10@colohan.com>
    Well, I can now tell you what you get: - I got my package today, after ordering on the 14th. Fast! - A big bag of scotch brite wheels. 49 of them, actually. (One short! Oh well.) - They are of the type GP-5AF. Compare this to Avery's CP-7A. (Nope, don't know how to decode these numbers.) - Avery's are gray, hard, and can take a corner off of a piece of aluminum no problem. These are reddish, slightly squishy, and barely seem to scuff aluminum when you rub it on it. If you run them for a while over a rough edge you might convince yourself that it polished the burr to make it sharper. In short? A great deal, if you need these wheels. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with them. :-) If anyone wants one (or 5) and would like to pick them up from me, you are more than welcome to take them.
