Ivan I don't know if you received my last post but a reminder to make sure
that the NY Yankees are not playing when you fly the Hudson corridor. There
will be a TFR for the game and flight service doesn't warn you about it.
The TFR extends in the corridor and you will get busted

Good Grief!
I'm planning a trip from the Atlanta Area to New Jersey in a couple of weeks. I
had planned to fly around DC, but that 60 mile arc would force me into the mountains!
The coastal way would have me dodging restricted areas and a lot of water.
There are a few Victor Airways around it but they all penetrate that 60 mile arc.
I have no interest in seeing DC, I used to live there when it was fun to fly.
What do the locals recommend?

I've done the NYC corridor a number of times - years ago and recently.
Amazingly not much has changed except that the options are better
documented now. Others have provided the links.
You basically want to decide whether you want to fly underneath in the
VFR corridor or in the Class B a couple of hundred feet higher. Either
is a visual flight of a lifetime. There can be a lot of traffic which
makes the Class B route preferable for me but either way works well.
Pilots tend to obey the rules of the road relative to altitudes and
sides of the river and position announcements in the VFR section.
Flying south to north allows you to practically over fly the WTC
memorial site. The fact that you can do that is amazing in itself. It
also puts your passengers on the scenic side of the plane.
You can go low and take a circle around the Statue of Liberty - that's a
notch on the stick for you and the passengers.
It's a good time to stock up on some lightweight floatation devices for
the plane. I felt I owed it to my passengers to have them onboard and
available even if I didn't fully brief them before the flight.
I go in and out of KHPN and highly recommend Panorama Flight Service if
you stop. If it fits your purposes, a low flight up the Hudson with a
landing at KHPN, followed by a normal altitude IFR/VFR departure south
generally results in vectors directly over JFK and an excellent high
altitude view of NYC.
I've done DC before and after too. Used to be accessible and fun. Now,
not so much. Not sure if there is anything resembling a scenic flight.
Access to the several layers of airports you can fly in and out of is
strictly managed and there is zero tolerance for deviations. I used to
go into Potomac and/or Hyde (forget which) but you need to go thru a
security procedure well in advance now. Recently, I've been flying in
and out of KANP - nothing to recommend or not recommend there. A flight
into W29 is Cheasapeake Bay scenic and there are crab places nearby. I
used to go into Kentmorr 3W3 for crabs at the marina but haven't taken
the '10 in the grass there yet. Don't know much else. You'll always
have NYC....
Enjoy!

You're right, V1 will do the trick. It'll add a few miles but I think a fuel stop
would be prudent in the Norfolk area. Thanks,

John if your making a fuel stop by Norfolk KSFQ ($ 5.20) or KCPK ($ 5.79)
both right off V1. I have flown Into CPK nice airport friendly people.
Haven't flown into SFQ but for .50 a gallon it might be worth the stop.
Double check the fuel prices, I got it off of foreflight. What part of New
Jersey are you flying into? Have fun on the trip if there is anything else
I can help you with don't hesitate to ask. John Z

The SFRA (where you need a clearance and specific squawk code) is 30nmi
radius from DCA. Between 30nmi and 60nmi is a speed restriction area only
(you will not be going fast enough unless you burning Jet A). No clearance
is needed in that area. Just stay out of the SFRA, mind the restricted
areas and fly. I do recommend flight following if VFR, especially if you
are unfamiliar with the area.
Don't forget to take the on line FAA SFRA course (required if you are within
60nmi of DCA - even if you don't want to enter the SFRA):

Do the online course. It's not difficult. Doesn't take too long. Then you
are all set. I've flown around the east and west side depending on where I'm
going and have had no issues. However, I have been asked by briefers and controllers
if I was familiar with the procedures. Also be familiar with and have
current charting for all the restricted areas. I have been asked to confirm
my intentions with respect to how I was avoiding various areas. So situational
awareness was critical.
Overall my experience with Potomac approach has been excellent and easier to work
with than the class B monster to the northeast. The Philly/ NY area is really
busy and can be overwhelming at times.

I have had my alternator fail after 570 hours. Just stopped producing any
power. Its the Plane Power alternator supplied with Vans FWF kit. Couple
of questions:
(1) How ore others doing with the Plane Power alternators (MTBF?)
(2) Is there a local automotive alternative that is a bolt in replacement?
(Autozone, Napa, Online source?)
(3) Any ideas as to what the typical failure mechanism is?

I had one turn on the low voltage light after a few hundred hours, even

When it came back it had a different style housing on the back. That was a
few years ago and it still seems to be the current style.
What did PP say? I'd be kind of surprised if they charged to fix it.
We've installed many with just that one issue.

Chris and all...
We would be happy to help you with your hoses. We have hundreds of RVs usi
ng our hoses. They are conductive Teflon which means that they have no max s
ervice life. In addition we make them to your specs. We have found that ev
eryone does their routings slightly different. While the vans hoses will fi
t, they may not fit the way you want.
We have more information at

Or

Have a great day

I think I have finally come to a step in the build where, no mater how hard
I try, I cannot complete.
Installing the horizontal stabilizer end cap fairings has got me completely
frustrated. I have been working on one for probably 40 hours now and don't
see the end in sight. I first had issues with the fiberglass cloth adhering
to the outside of the fairing. Since its a knife like edge, it would
de-bond every time I tried to remove the temporary foam rib. I then decided
to just leave the foam rib and glass it in place. That seemed to do the
trick and everything looked great until I clecoed it in place. I have
interference in the middle of the outside layer of cloth. I could just sand
an 1/8" dimple in the middle, but that doesn't seem right.
This is the first step where I am absolutely stumped as how to proceed.
Does anyone out there make aftermarket, complete hs-910? If not, what is
the trick I am missing here.

Don knows all to well that Plane Power is a good group of folks. My
starter failed within hours of the first flight. They shipped me a new
starter the same day, well actually they personally delivered it to a
RV-10 pilot who delivered it to me. No charge (I did need to leave a
deposit, which was never posted, pending the replacement be returned)
Good honest folks. To boot they even had the RV-10 pilot help me replace
the starter and take the old one back.
I=99m in California, they are next to Don in Texas..
If anyone is wondering how much the whole process cost me?
and now.. the rest of the story...
Having a great friend that was coming out the next day to visit and
lives next to the owners- priceless! not to mention, but I will anyway,
the timing for this failure was perfect.. and I like re-telling this
story anyway.
In the end, even before I mentioned names, Plane Power was first rate in
taking care of my concern and issue. Their technician spent well over 1
hour with me troubleshooting the issue.
Call them, if you haven't already!

I just sent him an email ( from his posting on VAF) explaining the tips you s
hared with me four or five years ago. It just seems like yesterday when I t
ook the class at your shop. Time sure flies when you're having fun.

A couple little tricks make the fiberglass a lot easier.

I just got off of the phone with Dave and have a much better idea on how to
proceed. It is amazing how something so small can derail a project.
Thanks for the help!

For DC: I flew into/out of College Park many years ago - it was fun -
cleared into class B and flew up the Anacostia river right by the Capitol
and into College Park. Then catch the metro and go downtown for the day; to
the Air and Space museum, and then fly back to North Carolina all in one
day. But check out this link for the procedure you would have to follow to
do it today. Its a fun read. Sad its come to this.

Have fun, I would recommend Gaithersburg too, instead of the above
procedure.
For NY: Watch this video it might be helpful and its well done and they are
using the skyline route.

Subject: RV10-List: Flying the Hudson through NY and to Washington DC.
Next week I have a couple of old friends from Europe coming to visit me here
in Canada and I am planning to take them on a "Trip of a Life Time" (at
least for them) in my RV-10 down the Hudson River NY. VFR corridor and then
onto Washington DC for a couple of days.
I did this trip about 20 years ago in a Comanche so I am sure there has been
some changes in the rules since then.
If anyone out there has flown this this trip in the last year or so and
would share some of the Do's and Dont's with me I would sure appreciate it.
What airport in the NY area is a good one to launch from to do the Hudson
corridor?
What publications and charts do I need and where is the best place to get
them?
As far as airports in the DC area I am thinking about College Park (KCGS)
but it falls within the vail of a current TFR. Does that mean that it is off
limits to private aircraft operations?
