    Subject: Re: Nose gear maintenance
    I have had to add as many as 2 spacers before. That's the cause, I think, of some of the shimmy that people are seeing. I may recommend that you add another spacer. It's good to have just a little bit of preload on those rubber donuts. If you have someone help you, they can push down on the engine or engine mount to compress the donuts enough to get the bolt back through the collar. do not archive Jesse Saint Saint Aviation, Inc. jesse@saintaviation.com C: 352-427-0285 F: 815-377-3694 On Nov 22, 2010, at 9:42 PM, Dick & Vicki Sipp wrote: > I had the nose gear jacked off the ground to change a tire and thought to check for any looseness or =93play.=94 I discovered about .75=94 of vertical movement. I recalled the instructions for installing the 1/8th thick spacers under the retaining collar on the top of the gear leg. They said that an additional spacer may be required after the rubber shock absorbers wore in. The job of adding another spacer (lucky to find the extras) turned out to much easier than I would have thought; about 15 minutes and only one minor knuckle skin nick. The single additional spacer took up all of the vertical slack without making the collar difficult to re-install. Remember the collar can only be removed with the gear on the ground supporting the weight of the airplane. > > Dick Sipp > N110DV 300 hours > >

    I've got a question about the F-1099 wing root fairing supports - in particular, F-1099G - the bottom one. The plans don't show any nutplates there and the fairing doesn't have any pre-drilled holes there, so I'm assuming that nobody has put any there, right?

    Subject: Did you contribute yet?
    Personally, I haven't seen the emails lately on list contributions, as I contributed early in the month. I did run across a posting on the Aero-Electric list today by Bob in reply to apparently the lower contribution level from last year...and I know last year was actually a down year for Matt too. Consider the benefits you get from the list...sometimes it doesn't seem like much, but you'll run across some tips that may end up saving you $20, $50, $300 or more. To me, it's just part of being in the community, to contribute knowledge learned. With Matronics, we don't support a person, or a company...just a server and I'm sure a hefty bandwidth bill, and some incidental work. I don't have time to follow websites, and keep up on forums...but I actually often answer Matronics forum email before I answer direct personal emails...my thought is that if a person REALLY needs an answer, and wants it quick, they should ask the group. Anyway, I'm not tied to any list, but this is the place I call home because it's in the format that want...and I get a steady flow of it to my inbox. If you can't contribute a lot, consider a little...but try to do your share to keep it all alive. "Dear Listers, As of today, Contributions to the Matronics List Fund Raiser are lagging behind last year at this time by roughly 17%. I have a Fund Raiser each year simply to cover my operating costs for the Lists. I *do not* accept any advertising income to support the Lists and rely solely on the Contributions of members to keep the expenses paid. " -- Tim Olson - RV-10 N104CD do not archive

    Subject: Re: Transition Training LODA
    I sent a LODA package to my local FSDO about a year ago and got a LOAD in return; in addition they specifically stated (with the LODA) that I could not endorse anyone for high performance because that training could be conducted in a certified aircraft. At that point I decided not to pursue further. As with many government sanctioned endeavors, the hassle was not worth the potential return. Perhaps the latest EAA efforts have borne fruit. ----- Original Message ----- From: "rv10flyer" <wayne.gillispie@yahoo.com> Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 2010 7:34 AM Subject: RV10-List: Re: Transition Training LODA > > I will keep you in mind.

    I am glad you guys had fun. I would love to come to Copperstate. It is such a great time of year to head down there. The past couple of years I have had another trip planned that conflicted with it. Next year maybe we can get all four RV-10's from the Salt Lake area down there (Mike and Rick, Rene, Sean and me). Last? Why is it going to be the last?

    Agreed. I figure at a minimum ten bucks per list you are on. Come on, folks. This is not only great entertainment, it's also good education and info that saves you time, money, and possibly your behind. Then, after you contribute, go to your favorite charity and make sure you give there, as well. ...via phone On Nov 23, 2010, at 7:22 AM, Tim Olson <Tim@myrv10.com> wrote: > > Personally, I haven't seen the emails lately on list > contributions, as I contributed early in the month. > I did run across a posting on the Aero-Electric list > today by Bob in reply to apparently the lower > contribution level from last year...and I know last > year was actually a down year for Matt too. > > Consider the benefits you get from the list...sometimes > it doesn't seem like much, but you'll run across some > tips that may end up saving you $20, $50, $300 or > more.

    An invasion from behind the Zion curtain would be most welcome. (I did most of my ratings out of SL#2). Lastly, this year was the third and last, next year will be the fourth and last, etc. It is symbolic of the internal war of optimism vs defeatism that all experimentalists experience. :D -------- Myron Nelson Mesa, AZ Emp completed, QB wings completed, legacy build fuse in mostly done, finishing kit in progress.

    depends on your time and type. My insurance requirement was one hour. people who have flown my aircraft have been required 3 and 5 and 0 respectively. The three was a 300 TT current private without IR. The five was a 300 TT current private without IR. The 0 was a CFII 4000+ TT ASEL AMEL and flying a Piper Dakota(currently a 10 builder). David N46007 360 TT 4000+ TT 2500 RG/HP CFII A&P original requirement 1 hour dual received. Currently 300+ RV10 with about 20+ hours of dual given in my RV10. The numbers vary widely. All my insureds were through EAA Falcon insurance; typically 1.5-2.5% of hull initially.covered all. Anymore than 5 on insurance is a "club" and demands commercial rates. ----- Original Message ----- From: "rvdave" <davidbf@centurytel.net> Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 2010 5:00 PM Subject: RV10-List: Re: Transition Training LODA > > How many hours are insurance companies requiring for RV10 coverage, if > any? > > -------- > Dave Ford > RV6 flying > RV10 building > Cadillac, MI > > > Read this topic online here: > > http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=320680#320680 > > >

    Hi Dave, As DLM noted, different insurance companies will vary widely. With 18,000 hours, ATP, CFII, lots of recent Bonanza experience, no accidents or incidents, my insurance still wanted 5 hours with a CFI to cover me from first flight. 1.45% of hull value is the cost of my insurance. -------- David Maib RV-10 #40559 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=320702#320702
