    Robin - thanks for posting. Those things look giant! I would think your entering the zone of external pressure recovery. I know you are absolutely sick of this whole cooling thing and just want to move on and get it solved. Before you do that is there any chance we could get you to take some before and after pressure measurements in your cowl? I know I am asking a lot of a guy who is as frustrated as you are. By the way, as Ben said the interior shape of the inlet is really critical on internal pressure recovery type systems (small inlets) like the James Cowl & Plenum. I am of the unverified opinion right now that the interior shape of the James cowl inlet is the problem. Putting together the test plan and data right now to verify that.

    Anyone fab a button, cover, whatever that fits over the C-1007 that is depressed to rotate the exterior door handle? Seems odd that there's nothing that covers the hole and it may be uncomfortable to press it. -Sean #40303 (finishing cabin top interior)

    Subject: Re: Inlet Ring Size
    Jason, I purchased those rings as my triple fall back option. I grabbed them because they looked like a solution but not a convenient one considering all that would be entailed with the conversion on an already flying -10. As far as pressure readings we performed ~30 flights during and just after Phase 1 measuring different DP's to get the plane reasonably flyable. That was nearly 3 years ago and I am long past being interested in more R&D. To answer your question there will be no Before & After as I plan on switching cowls vs. modifying the same cowl so it will be an Apples & Oranges situation which at best would provide minimal actionable information. I wish you the best in developing a solution for this issue but the answer is already out there. It's called the stock Vans cowl & baffle system. I would (and probably should go that route for my replacement cowl but because of my Barrett FFCI / FM300 I have decided to try an impressive new cowl that was specifically developed with that combination of hardware. This is still a leap of faith but there is actually a flying version vs. just going to market with something that "should work." Additionally I will be replacing my Plenum with standard baffles and I hope to never own a plenum again. Best of luck with your development. I will follow your thread on VAF and the RV List.

    Geoff, That looks really nice! And the polished handle looks very good too, well done.

    Subject: Re: Brake Pads?
    Yeah, I agree with Scott, I don't do them exactly at annual, but more based on hours in service. But, while I don't remember the time I put on for the first set, something tells me it was about 170 hours and that was just enough for me to hit the rivets on one side and grind a groove in my disk. I got less hard on brakes after that first year, so Scott's 200 or so is probably a real good number as a maximum for your first year with an RV-10. You MAY be able to squeak a little more life out of them, but my guess is that most builders should probably plan to replace BY 150 on their first year....get a good measurement, change your bad habits, and maybe shoot for a max of 200-250 after you learn how to be conservative on brakes. Then you should do OK. FWIW, this is why I am not a person who puts an air-fill hole in my wheel fairings. If you use leakguard tubes, you only need to fill up every 9 months or so anyway, so if I pull the fairings every spring and fall, it gives me at minimum, 2 times a year when I can inspect the linings. If I had a fill hole, I'd be more tempted to just "fill er up" and keep flying without inspecting the linings. Probably cause more harm than the convenience is worth.

    I would agree with this as well, except that you can inspect the brake linings with a mirror and flashlight. I like the fill hole. Do not archive.
