    Dear Listers, There are just a few more days left of this year's List Fund Raiser. Response has been good so far, but we're well behind last year at this point.

Please remember that there is no commercial advertising on these Lists and the *only* means of keeping them running is through your Contributions during this Fund Raiser. If it weren't for your individual Contributions, these Lists could easily become economically infeasible and simply cease to exist. You probably can't even take the family out to dinner for $20 these days, but your individual Contribution of the same amount makes a huge difference in keeping the List services alive.

    Subject: Re: Brass Torx or Socket Head Screws For Panel
    Thanks for all the replies on and off list. It seems that it is hard to find brass fasteners that are Black Ox coated AND are something other than phillips or slotted head. McMaster-Carr (which most of the replies suggested) has a great selection of brass fasteners, but none of them that I could see were Black Ox coated. They have steel in Black Ox, but not brass. I guess there's always self-painting the heads. -Sean #40303 On 11/18/10 5:36 PM, Sean Stephens wrote: > I am trying to locate a supplier of black brass machine screws for my > panel.

    Really cool 360 degree image of a P51 cockpit. http://www.stclairphoto-imaging.com/360/P51-Mustang/P51_swf.html Requires Flash and note that the colors take a loooooong time to load. I need that switch panel on the bottom left for Guns and Bombs on the -10. I know the regs prevent flying for hire, but do they mention anything about strafing runs? I guess maybe just not over congested areas? :) -Sean #40303 DO NOT ARCHIVE

    I just had my kits ship today and I found out that the price below is slightly wrong. The kits are $70/10, but with prepaid postage, they're now $92.50. The postage is $2.25 each.

    I saw a Cirrus SR-20 today that had black allen head screws for holding the instruments. It was a fairly early 2000's model with mostly 6-pack of steam gauges. Obviously Cirrus had to source them somewhere. On 11/19/2010 9:42 AM, Sean Stephens wrote: > > Thanks for all the replies on and off list.

    From: "rvdave" <davidbf@centurytel.net>
    Plans show transducer to be in the tunnel, I've heard there are less fluctuations if it is placed after the mechanical pump and before distribution for fuel injection, is this correct? -------- Dave Ford RV6 flying RV10 building Cadillac, MI Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=320145#320145
