I'm flying from TX to CO to ID, and then over to Lebanon, Oregon for a few days
before heading south to NorCal, SoCal, and then back to TX (3290nm). Plan on
taking some Lebanon friends up to Vans to take the tour, and was wondering if
there's some sites in the area to see or fly over, and also any airport breakfast/lunch
places in the area that you guys would recommend.

| Subject: | Aileron Trim location |
I'm running into a question and wanted to investigate if somebody did
that already.
Is there any reason, to follow strictly Van's plan and mount the aileron
trim on the left hand wing or could it be done as well on the right hand
wing?
Reason is, doing the cabling plan for both wings I have much more wires
tubes on the left hand wing then on the right hand, so adding teh trim
servo there would ease a bit the size of the bundle on the left hand side.
Many thanks for tips, consideration and real life reports

Don,
Pretty much anywhere in Oregon is breathtaking. I recommend flying any part
of the coastline or the Columbia gorge or the vastly different terrain of
central Oregon.
A decent coastal route would be to roughly fly north out of Aurora over
downtown Portland (contact Portland approach through Class C. Sometimes
they put you over the top of PDX which is kinda fun otherwise over downtown
Portland which looks much better from the air than on the ground) and follow
the Columbia River north and west to Astoria. Then fly south along the
coast as far as you want to either Pacific City, KPFC or as far as KONP
(Newport) then back. Pacific city is short (1800ft) and feels like a
carrier landing. There are several restaurants within walking distance of
the field. I've always liked the Mexican place east of the field right
across the highway. The scenery is the best for this route at about
1500-2500ft (accept when crossing the coast range on the return of course).
KUAO KPDX KSPB KKLS KAST KPFC KUAO. Optionally you can cut out the PDX part
and fly north direct to AST but there not as much to look at and your over
terrain for the longest period of time. Tillamook, KTMK has an pretty cool
flight museum and a small caf. It's an old wooden WW2 blimp hangar (read
massive building).
There's always the McMinnville Flight Museum across the highway from KMMV
that houses the Spruce Goose. That can kill the better part of a day.
The Columbia Gorge at nearly any altitude is beautiful (but can be bumpy
down low depending on winds) KUAO KTTD KDLS. You can either reverse the
route or fly south out of DLS and back over the Cascades. South of DLS
there are some really beautiful rolling hills until it flattens out into
Central Oregon... Bend, OR area.
There are restaurants of varying quality at KSLE, K7S5, KTMK, KMMV (at the
museum across the highway), 4S9 Mulino (walk east down the grass to nearly
the highway a couple hundred yards), Sunriver S21 (the lodge will come pick
you up... the fbo will call for you). North a bit into WA is Bowerman KHQM
there is a decent diner on the filed there. The first Sat of each month
there is an EAA fly-in breakfast at Twin Oaks Airpark 7S3 (between Aurora
and HIO Hillsboro). Not "great" by any means but the company is good!

Mt St. Helens is my favorite thing to fly over with sight seeing
passengers. Impressive to see even 22 years after it erupted. I've often
taken scenic flights up the Columbia Gorge, over/around St Helens;
sometimes around Adams and/or Mt Hood for good measure.

Ben has covered a lot, if not most of the good spots if you'll be wanting to
stay north in Oregon.
When coming over from ID, and if it's a good day in the valley, you'll want
to pass by Mt. Jefferson if going direct Lebanon. You'll see most of the
volcanic Cascades. What a view! You'll love it. Or, if you've got cloud
cover in the valley, which is not unusual, and you need to get under them
(unless you're IFR, of course) head down the Columbia River Gorge before
turning south into the valley. Make sure you contact Portland Approach
(you've got approaching jets into PDX right above you) so they know what you
are up to, and make sure you know what the ceilings are in the valley and
gorge.
Once in the Lebanon area, any of what Ben listed is worth doing. I'd,
however, just add that a flight down to and around Crater Lake is worth the
time and fuel, although if you are headed south on your way out, you could
do that as you go. Another mountain venture is to fly up into Washington
and around Mt. Saint Helens. You can still make out the devastation, even
these many years later.
If you are coming to ID via CO, which is a route many choose, I'd suggest
hanging a right just north of Gooding, ID, and flying up the valley (Sun
Valley) towards Stanley. Now you're in the Sawtooths, which are
unbelievably beautiful. You can land at Stanley and grab a great meal at
the bakery there. Just walk down the hill from the airport and follow your
nose. If you need fuel, they have it, but expensive. Best to fuel up at
Gooding. Or, you can get fuel at the main airport near Sun Valley. But if
you don't need fuel, I'd gain some altitude and make it a bee line to
McCall, ID, fly over that lake and then head to Baker City, OR. Then
straight west, past Mt. Hood, hang a left once into the valley and down to
Lebanon. However, all this is predicated on the time of day. In the
afternoons it can get a bit dicey with thermals and thunderstorms. If it's
getting past noon and you've made it into the Boise River valley, you might
just want to get above 10k to smooth things out and make a bee line to your
destination.
Safe skies, and if you need anything further in the area, just give a call.
Ben, John C,
Rob H, myself, or any of the folks from EAA-105 will be glad to dish out the
advice and suggestions.

| Subject: | SL30 problems in Phoenix - now I'm back in NC looking for a |
SL30 to swap
I just returned from trip out west in my RV10 N215TG. Just before
landing at the absolute furthest point away from home, my SL30 stopped
working (partially). Fortunately I have a G430 with Comm to back it up
though that required a bit of work to make work.
Anyway, I'm back home in Durham (Lake Ridge 8NC8) and need to swap my
SL30 with a working SL30 to confirm it's disfunction. Once I send it in
to Garmin, I understand it will cost $800 no matter what they find so I
want to make sure it's not working.
Does anyone have a working SL30 that I can fly to and do a momentary
swap with. I can pretty much assure you that my installation won't
damage your unit. In fact, my SL30 powers up, tunes freqs, and
otherwise appears to be working. But it won't communicate.
The only other culprit could be the PMA 9000 EX. Hopefully a swap will
narrow it down to one or the other.
Thanks in advance,

Bill,
I cannot offer you a SL30, but I can offer you a wired and ready tray in my
plane that is waiting on an SL30 (saving up for it)! There might be some
logic in this approach.
I am 103 NM to your east at KEWN.

Steamboat....the Steamboat airport is much preferable to Hayden, but it
is only around 4500 ft long for 7000+ elevation, so you need to be
precise in your approach. Crater Lake is another great sight in the
OR/NV area.

a SL30 to swap
Hey Bill,
I just talked to Wes about swapping out your SL30 in the -10. He's going to
check to make sure that's what he's got and I'll let you know tomorrow.
Surely you can find another closer to you, but if not "come on down" to
Greenville, SC.
Later, - Lew

It'd be a crime to visit Pacific City and not visit the Pelican Pub, one of
the best brewpubs in the country. Great food, great beer, and right on the
beach, though you have to walk about a mile to get there. Get some beer to
go if you're flying.

| Subject: | Infant carseat in the -10 |
Just a few weeks away from our first kid, and I'm already thinking about
flying him around. I test fit our infant (rear-facing) carseat today, and
am not happy with how the lap belt of my 4-point system secures the seat
(see picture). I'd rather not have the buckle in the middle. Ideally I'd
use the seat base, but my seatbelt doesn't get short enough to make the
base work. What have others done?
Thanks in advance for the help...
-Rob
