| Subject: | Pireps on KFFA, KMQI and W95. |
Been to all three - great places to see.
For FFA go for the experience. From there fly to MQI for the food. After
that on to W95 (Ocracoke Island) to say a couple of days. I called the
Castle B&B and made arrangements for them to pick us up after the airplane
was tied down. They were happy to do it
http://www.thecastlebb.com/Ocracoke/ We stayed at the Castle three days -
and highly recommend it.
No need for rental cars and Ocracoke is not a tourist trap. Plenty of nice
mom and pop places to eat and things to do within easy walking distance.

We are planning a 3 day trip to the OBX after Memorial Day. Any advice on
accomodations, restaurants, things to see and do would be much appreciated.

| Subject: | Dumb hardware inventory question |
I have a few plastic bags of hardware, mostly in the 507 number range that
I do not have listed on the Finish hardware, the FWF hardware, or anywhere
else I can find. Was looking all over for some baffling hardware, like the
two spark plug access hole covers, and finally found these 3 or 4 bags that
were not listed anywhere that I can see.
About the time I began on the fuselage, I stopped emptying all the bags of
parts into labeled drawers and found it was generally easier to take the
part number in the plans, find it on the inventory and go to the numbered
bag. One of these days, I think would be a good project to take and
combine the hardware inventory lists into a complete, single spreadsheet of
parts by bag number, that was searchable by computer, to speed things up
for future builders. Just as soon as I find the round tuit. ;-)

I scanned all my inventory lists into one searchable PDF file in Evernote. I
left everything grouped with one bag per drawer in several plastic hardware
cabinets. If I do not find something immediately, then I search for the pa
rt on my iPad. I can then find the bag/drawer number.Works well. With a se
archable PDF, you do not need a spreadsheet. It only took a couple of minut
es to setup. Some common hardware items, such as bolts, nuts, nut plates, e
tc might be easier to find in separate drawers.

Now this one is getting interesting.
I measured the RG-400 antenna cable and found on the antenna side that on the female
BNC connector the shield and the center pin are somehow connected, which
shouldn't be the case.
The weird thing however is, that if I measure the cable from the other side the
shield and the center pin are not connected?! I tested this several times and
measured connectivity of the shields on both sides which is positiv.
Does anyone have an idea what's going on?
Thanks
Mike

Are you disconnecting it from the radio while you are checking continuity?
If it's connected to the radio, it will show a dead short when checked from the
other end.

Sounds good. I agree, acrobat searchable is just as good as spreadsheet.
Would you consider sharing your document?
