Man you guys with the pink tops sure have it nice. I was laughing to myself on
the index mark conversation earlier that I couldn't even see 3 of the marks on.
Y doors. :-)

My concern is making the area on the bottom of the door too thin. Perhaps
I'm overly concerned, since there will be filling done in that area.

It's hard to tell because the pictures are way too big. From what I can tell, you
are safe to cut that 1/8".

I need some ballast when flying solo. The big issue is during Phase One. After
that, tools and baggage suffice. I used a ShurTrax 100 lb "traction aide" from
Summit racing. The tiedown eyelets on the corners fit great with my Van's tie
down fittings. And, you can dump the water when you're done.

It definitely flies better with weight in the back, more stick authority and less
trim. My "Most Aft CG" calculation exceeds max gross before the CG hits 116.24
inches. The only way I could hit 116.24" is to have a 5 year old in the right
seat, fuel down to 10 gallons, and the back loaded to max gross. That would
require two 250 pounders and max baggage. Sounds like a "fun" trip...(g).

All,
I had three air box top plates crack on my RV-8A. I solved the problem by
adding a support bracket to keep the box from bouncing around (the prop was
dynamically balanced). I did the same for the RV-10. The RV-10 air box is
modified to take the taller K&N E-1000 air filter - the modification is
simply to invert the air box cover. This box is also modified to fit the
James Cowl.
Forwarded for your information.
Carl

FWIW, I installed these in my bird back in 2006 and I love them -
wouldn't trade them for anything!

but are special order for color, type and size.
