    Bill brings up a good point and I have yet to call Vans support line. Van if you are listening (yes, I know no one is listening) the idea behind "enterprise" social media is a smart company, like Vans, would invest in an enterprise platform which allows them to easily combine, consume, monitor, participate, etc. in all forms of media. The goal is to engage all of their customers (young and old, high tech and low tech) in their media of choice, and combine all of information into one (virtual) location to the benefit o f everyone=8A at the same time hiding the complexity to both internal users and external customers. The good news for those who dislike social media =8B at some point in the future you can take advantage of social media with out actively participating=8A at least you won't know you are activity participating.

    Subject: Oil Breather Exit Tube too Short?
    From: "jchang10" <jc-matronics_rv10@jline.com>
    I had a visiting A&P comment that I should try and extend the oil breather tube exit a bit more. A tiny bit of extension he said would help. Right now, my exit is a good 2 inches above the bottom of the firewall and cowl exit area. He thought a lot of oil vapor and general messiness will result in the bottom of the firewall with the oil breather exit there. Can anyone commend on their firewall messines? Did anyone try extending theirs? Jae 40533 Final assembly Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=350214#350214

    Subject: Re: Oil Breather Exit Tube too Short?
    He's right. It really should be a couple of inches _/below/_ the bottom of the firewall. Also, about two inches _/above/_ the bottom of the firewall, cut a notch in the tube and then use a chisel or other pointy tool to bend the top of the notch into the tube .... like a whistle. This will allow the crankcase pressure to escape if the bottom end of the tube ices over yet keeps the oily stuff out of the cowl.

    Ken Scott...not to be confused with Ken K. Does Monitor & Relay the chatter. I would think the VANs Aircraft Kit Company might have chosen more wisely than facebook and discussion of improvements began here "years ago". This is just an example how Out of Touch that I am with Social Media Marketing. John 40600

    I have NO problem with Van's manufactured parts. I do have problems with QB assemblies that are not built to the plans. Stuff like trailing edge rivets poorly squeezed instead of driven double flush as plans call for. Longerons not cut to length, and riveted in place with skin dimpled without the longeron being countersunk to match. Parts missing. When you pay an extra $10,000 to have things done, with marketing assuring high quality construction, and you get quality that A&P instructors would reject from their students, I think you have a right to bitch. Don't get me wrong...most of the work is good quality, but the errors on the remaining 5% leave a sour taste.

    After my upcoming deployment I am pulling the plug on the James cowl as well. Just not cutting it in the Southern heat. Really looks good, but not worth the poor performance. Right now I am just using short term fixes to at least kept the plane flyable. Don't want to delve back into fiberglass, but it needs done.

    Well I didn't want some yahoo saying,"195 is too hot at 13500!!" I had leveled off and stabilized on cruise then finished leaning when I snapped the photo. The oil temp was just coming back down after the climb. I had some tailwind during this pic but not much, probably around 5-10 kts. ----- Original Message ----- From: Robin Marks To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Monday, August 22, 2011 7:29 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Replacement Cowl You call that leveling off?

    Forgetabout about winds aloft, I like how long you can stay aloft at 8.6 GPH. ~6 hours with VFR reserves. (maybe less with the climb burn). ROP I ha d to stop for fuel going in & out of OSH flying ROP. Would have been nice to burn 40% less fuel AND not have the fuel stop cost in both time and extra climb outs. Darn you James Cowl!

    Hi Rick, You'll pass pretty close to KWVI on the way to Montecito. Feel free to drop in. We usually have two flying 10s in the hangar, and at least one more RV for the next few weeks. I recommend lunch at the CIA in St. Helena--they're cooks, not feds. The last time we went we landed at Angwin, which worked out fine. We got a cab into town. Have a good trip.
