    Ours is under the co-pilot seat. Relatively good access there, if needed, and cable run is still short. TDT Tim Dawson-Townsend RV-10 40025 tdt@aurora.aero<mailto:tdt@aurora.aero> 617-500-4812 (office) 617-905-4800 (mobile)

    Sorry to have missed the cookout and meeting with lots of the list. It was great to see the few folks that were around the HQ the two times I managed to get free. With the mass arrivals scrubbed there wasn't a lot of interest in camping on the mud, so stayed in hotel in MSN and commuted. That meant no evening fireside socializing. Weather and such limited time on site to Sun, Mon and Tues, so had to hit the displays on a run and get to the key vendors of all the expensive gizmos and chunks of metal needed for airplane completion. Obviously John was concentrating on the high society warbirds, so missed him. Oh, well...another time. Was good to see the -10s that made it in.

    Hmm, RE: the fuel issue.....I don't see any carbureted models with lower than 8.5:1 except a few 235hp models with 7.2 compression. Perhaps that is what you were referring to. I suppose some may consider it a fuel issue, but the 4 cyl models with 8.5 compression such as the 180hp fly just fine on premium mogas, IF the airframe has no issues and the fuel is mostly ethanol free, so don't see any reason why 2 more cyl at same compression should change that.

    Right on Kelly. I run the crap out of my O-360 in my Pitts ..... on premium mogas. Regular works OK as long as I don't get real wild. Had to go back to 100 Lotsa Lead because of the ethanol. Not sure if the PS-5 carb will tolerate the ethanol which is the only weak spot (ethanol wise) in the fuel system. All the old Aeroquip rubber hoses have been changed to the braided teflon so no issues there.

    Yep, it was a mis-speak...I meant 8.5:1 On Jul 29, 2010, at 8:11 PM, Kelly McMullen <kellym@aviating.com> wrote: > > Hmm, > RE: the fuel issue.....I don't see any carbureted models with lower > than 8.5:1 except a few 235hp models with 7.2 compression.

    Sure wish they would finish work on the Skyview first instead of spreading their efforts all over the place. Their lack of commitment to get their software finished, a year after it was announced, and not being anywhere close to AFS or GRT for a mature product would argue against creating more product lines.

    Subject: OSH RV-10 (and friends) Cookout
    From: John Cox <johnwcox@pacificnw.com>
    Here is a great story about Hal Morley's CJ in today's EAA news: http://www.airventure.org/news/2010/100729_china.html Let me apologize for the Triple Latte Starbucks and Chaisse Lounge Chairs t hat we are using in the "High Society" warbird area. While you are all sin ging at Camp Condrey, I am going out at 7AM tomorrow to do some aerial form ation and combat flying. Yes, the Nanchang does have many of my mods and y es it delayed the delivery a full 8 years. Yes, it has caused "Builder Int eruptus" on the RV-10 but then I have had the pleasure of watching many of you guys do a remarkably professional quality build all on your own. Saturday Night I will also reluctantly miss the Homebuilt Awards even while hold hopes that an RV-10 does us proud. I will be at the Warbird Awards C eremony in pursuit of Grand Champion. The rest is just a remarkable unforg etable Wisconsin Summer. The bird "An American Nanchang" remains along the E-W pathway from the nort h most Red Trolley stop. I have missed you guys up in the Snob Section. W e will be back on display by 9AM.
