I talked to Sandy and the very low reading indicates it is open and
reading the temp of the internal EIS. My number two was like that and
when removed was burn off to 3/8" I sent the list a picture recently. I
am going to buy a set of EI quick response probes. I have been assured
that they will work in place of the GRT probes (we will see). Got a good
quote.

It's probably been covered, but what where your indications of a probe
failure? I've got one on the fritz reading a constant very low temp but
I don't know if it's the wiring or the probe gone bad. I also have the
GRT setup and 450 hours TT.
Thanks,

Subject: RV10-List: EGT probes
Any suggestions for long life EGT probes? I have 278 TT on my RV10 and
have replaced 3 EGT probes from GRT. Failures have been on 6 then 4 (or
2) then 1. #2 failed this morning. Some are the original GRT EIS probes
and some are their allegedly long life probes. I lost the third one on a
trip to IL and GRT FEDEXed two "long life" probes to IL. I changed #1
and kept the spare. This morning on a local training flight, #2 failed
(again?). Probes are located 2 inches below the exhaust port (specs call
2-6"). EGTs normally see high 1300 /low 1400 in cruise. takeoff and
climb EGTs are 1200-1350. At altitude the LOP operation usually provided
CHTs (275-325) and EGTs (1360-1410). GEM probes on a previous aircraft
(TC177RG) were rated for 1650 F red line and since my normal operation
was about EGTs at 1400. I replaced two probes in 29 years of ownership
and 2500 hours. I have now replaced 4 GRT probes in 278 hours. I am
considering a completely new set of Alcor or GEM probes

Subject: | FS: LE1600 tablet with SSD |
Before I go to eBay with this, I thought I'd offer it
here:
I have a couple of LE1600 tablets that I run Voyager on.
I bought one and then when we were flying the Cherokee I bought
a 2nd instead of buying a handheld GPS. I figured it gave way
more function for the money.
But now I don't lease the Cherokee anymore, and since I
have both an LE1600 and an iPad, I don't need the 2nd
LE1600.
The tablet has a 32GB Solid State hard drive in it, and
it's been used very little since I installed the drive.
It should work very well for in-airplane use. it also
would come with a bump case installed.
$820 shipped if you want it...otherwise I'll try other
forums quick before putting it on eBay.

Bill,
I tried for two months with no results. I do know that the principal owner died
and that it was a family owned/operated business. I finally gave up under the
assumption that the business is apparently falling apart.

Subject: | Seat belt sources and finishing of hardpoint |
I have replicated the front seat hardpoints in the rear so all 4
shoulder belts will attach to the canopy top with single NAS 517-5-9 bolts.
(I did not do the AMSAFE installation required for their inertial
reels. I did dig out the hole from the inside, scarfed the outer
surface and built up the hardpoint with layers of cloth and filled rest
of thickness with flox)
Question 1: I have a nice tan/brown Flightline interior and would like
to matching belts - any suggestions on sources? The Vans belts would be
fine if available in the right color.
Question 2: I want to glass the bolts into place but I'm worried if I
do that, will mounting the seatbelt fracture the glass? Or is the bolt
being left flush and uncovered? What have others done? How has it worked?
Thanks.

Subject: | Re: Need a frank answer |
I want to thank everyone for the responses and private messages. I think that I've
got a way out, because of the wording on 41-3. It actually says you can skip
the lower horizontal angle if you cut below 3/4" of remaining metal; I was
assuming that the 3/4" was sacrosanct. It sounds nuts - and I plan on talking
with Vans about it - but I'm now guessing that my friend's idea of an angle or
"c" channel the length of the very bottom flange would do the trick.
If Vans says differently, I'll let everyone know. Again, thanks for the replies.

Grumpy,
I apologize if I have made a false statement. I was merely responding to Bill that
I had the same experience he has had, and gave my assumption that prompted
me to quit calling.

I used thier paint on my RV with mixed results. Loved the wonderfil
and primer, the paint was very hard to control the orange peel but we
kept it to a minimum by careful ratios of thinner. That said the paint
buffs and colors sands like a champ. Mike's dad passed away in the
middle of my paint project but I was always able to get his wife on
the phone to order more supplies. They were good to deal with and I
can't fault them on my experience. FWIW wonderfil is an Akzo Noble
product packaged by Loehle. I used both and if they aren't the same
stuff then sue me. If I had to do it again (I'm planning to) I would
use a Dupont base/clear system, much more tolerant to temps. Flamers
back off, I have lots of time behind a spray gun to make that call.
The reason I went with Loehle was it's was single stage poly and I
know what a bitch it is to touch up basecoat/clearcoat.

Hey Bill,
Question #2. I cut a slot in the head, imbeded a pop rivet stem in it to
keep it from turning, and glassed it over -- got the idea here -- and it is
still invisible from the outside, no cracks. And I can't imagine needing to
access it unless something really bad happened.
Wes has finished his fly-off time and is REALLY turning up the heat to get
me to fly with him. Maybe if you came down and flew with him, I'd get a
break! :-)
