Bill broke the distance record a couple of weeks ago, flying non-stop from Guam to Jacksonville Florida. His modified Lancair 4 holds 360 gallons of fuel, and the inherently efficient design allows him to cruise at 180 knots averaging less than 9gph fuel burn. Use the below link to follow his flight. He is up linking a data point every four minutes. His first refuel is southern Brazil, then the southern tip of Argentina, from there over the South Pole to New Zealand, then Hawaii, Fairbanks, then over the North Pole back to Bangor Maine. Carl Begin forwarded message: From: sh < kitplanesue@gmail.com> Subject: Bill's polar flight Good morning, In case you're interested in following Bill's attempt to fly around both poles, here's the web link: https://go.spidertracks.com/fleetpro/public/zqpilot There are 4 small icons at the top left, the airplane icon puts a panel at the left that shows what ZQ is doing. Use the plus to zoom in or the minus to zoom out. You use the pile of papers icon to determine the view. Try hybrid view. If you click the X, it will take you to a screen where you select Tracks and then click on the top latest date. Once he's flying this will get you Bill's track as it is reported by Spidertracks. (it also shows him taxiing while on the ground) You must click on the last little teardrop to get his latest position info in a box on the screen. As he gets closer to some interesting landmarks you can zoom in. Let's all keep our fingers crossed for a safe journey, Sue ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 04:43:43 PM PST US From: Sean Stephens Subject: RV10-List: Trimming Push-Pull Cables To Length Looking for help on the best way to go about trimming the length of the CT A-740 push-pull cables.

If nut plates worked for Rene then I'd try that. It's nice to have the bolt heads on the inside an no other hardware to deal with.
