I feel guilty! I was going to use my normal scaled versions but the detail of the lettering wasn't good enough to show them off. So I took the full-resolution versions and just cropped down to the detail I wanted. Trouble is, those were STILL too huge!

Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=415925#415925 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:37:29 PM PST US Subject: Re: RV10-List: Windshield fairing From: Kelly McMullen I considered it for a long time. I ultimately decided to stick with the plans. Two reasons. The windshield is already bonded on 3 sides, meaning it cannot be removed without a complete rework of the canopy lip and the other reason is that a metal fairing on the bottom means drilling for a bunch of rivets that you would have to drill out for replacement and the plane would look more like a typical spam can. So windshield replacement is going to require both cleaning out old canopy lip and smoothing to take new glass, and removing the fiberglass fairing and making a new one isn't going to be nearly as hard the 2nd time around. I don't plan on being able to physically fly as long as the original windshield should last, absent physical damage, so I decided to stay with the plans.

However, I could not make it work. I have the B&C 20 Amp Stby Alternator on the vacuum pad and I could not find an adapter that would permit me to mount the oil filter. I tried various spacers and adapters from B&C and one or two other vendors, to no avail. My engine is a C4B5, so that might be the difference. The good news is, I decided to bite the bullet and purchase and install the Airwolf remote oil filter. I mounted it on the lower RH firewall. Sure makes for easy, mess free, oil filter changes. I am glad it turned out that way. -------- David Maib RV-10 #40559 Transition Trainer New Smyrna Beach, FL Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=415945#415945 ________________________________ Message 9 _____________________________________ Time: 09:55:54 PM PST US Subject: Re: RV10-List: Re: oil filter and B&C alternator From: Michael Kraus I have a C4B5 and I had no issues getting it to work out.
