Subject: | Matronics Email List Fund Raiser During November! |
Dear Listers,
Each November I hold a PBS-like fund raiser to support the continued operation
and upgrade of the List services at Matronics. It's through soley through the
Contributions of List members that these Matronics Lists are possible.
You have probably noticed that there are no banner ads or pop-up windows on any of the Matronics Lists or related web sites such as the Forums site ( http://forums.matronics.com ), Wiki site ( http://wiki.matronics.com ), or other related pages such as the List Search Engine ( http://www.matronics.com/search ), List Browse ( http://www.matronics.com/listbrowse ), etc. This is because I believe in a List experience that is completely about the sport we all enjoy - namely Airplanes and not about annoying advertisments.
During the month of November I will be sending out List messages every few days
reminding everyone that the Fund Raiser is underway. I ask for your patience
and understanding during the Fund Raiser and throughout these regular messages.
The Fund Raiser is only financial support mechanism I have to pay all of the
bills associated with running these lists. Your personal Contribution counts.
Once again, this year I've got a terrific line up of free gifts to go along with
the various Contribution levels. Most all of these gifts have been provided
by some of the vary members and vendors that you'll find on Matronics Lists and
have been either donated or provided at substantially discounted rates.
This year, these generous people include Bob Nuckolls of the AeroElectric Connection (http://www.aeroelectric.com/), Andy Gold of the Builder's Bookstore (http://www.buildersbooks.com/), and Jon Croke of HomebuiltHELP (http://www.homebuilthelp.com/).
These are extremely generous guys and I encourage you to visit their respective
web sites. Each one offers a unique and very useful aviation-related product
line. I would like publicly to thank Bob, Andy, and Jon for their generous support
of the Lists again this year!!
You can make your List Contribution using any one of three secure methods this
year including using a credit card, PayPal, or by personal check. All three methods
afford you the opportunity to select one of this year's free gifts with
a qualifying Contribution amount!!
To make your Contribution, please visit the secure site below:
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
I would like to thank everyone in advance for their generous financial AND moral
support over the years. I know it sounds a little cliche, but you guys really
do feel like family.
Thank you for your support!

Subject: | Heat and Cowling RV6 |
jOHN:- YOU CAN USE THE ALUMINUM SHEETS- HOME DEPOT SELLS, FOR
HOME INSULATION I BELIEVE.
-
CHEAPER THAN VAN'S,,SAVE SHIPPING TOO.
i USED IT- WORKS GREAT... SOME OF THE- FELLOWS AROUND MY AIRPORT
SUGGESTED TO ME ALSO, THEY ONLY PUT STRIP, ALONG SIDE THE
LENGTH OF THE MUFFLER,- ON BOTH SIDES...IN OTHER WORDS COVERS
THE AREA BOTH SIDES INSIDE THE COWLING, WHERE THE HEAT WILL
DAMAGE THE FIBERGLASS...
-
NO NEED TO COVER THE ENTIRE COWLING,, BUT- I DID, IT AT THE TIME..

Thank you for the suggestion I called Vans this morning and will get the he
at shield on, maybe this should be some thing other RV owners should consid
er before they have a fiberglass issue as I now do.

Van's sells a self-adhesive foil heat shield material that you can stick on
the inside of the cowl in the area where heat is a factor. -Just make su
re you clean the area real well so it will adhere. -K2R spot remover does
real well to suck oil out of the pre-preg type epoxy cowls that Vans now s
upplies with their kits if that is the type you have. -If not, just use n
aphtha (coleman's lantern fuel) or lacquer thinner.-

I have an RV6, changed the oil today and noticed that the bottom cowling ha
s a bubble about 6=94 in diameter next to the exhaust where it makes the be
nd from the manifold (closest point to the cowling), obviously the exhaust
is to hot for the cowling at this point, from the out side of the cowling y
ou can also just see the bubble.- This is now a weaker area of the cowlin
g; I did not build the airplane and am wondering what I should do about the
heat first and then the cowling.- The cowling may have been like this si
nce my last oil change and perhaps will be something I deal with down the r
oad.- I can not imagine this causing a major failure but will probably ju
st become unsightly to a point where it needs to be fixed.- Any feed back
is wanted and welcome.
