RV7-List Usage Guidelines
******************************************************************************
The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the RV7-List.
You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules therein.
Failure to use the RV7-List in the manner described below may result
in the removal of the subscribers from the List.
RV7-List Policy Statement
The purpose of the RV7-List is to provide a forum of discussion for
things related to this particular discussion group. The List's goals
are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver
high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie
among its members; and to support safe operation. Reaching these goals
requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of
the List. To this end, the following guidelines have been established:
- Please keep all posts related to the List at some level. Do not submit
posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long
lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc.
- THINK carefully before you write. Ask yourself if your post will be
relevant to everyone. If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it.
- Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive
that is growing in size at an extraordinary rate. Try to be concise and
terse in your posts. Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and
responses.
- Keep your signature brief. Please include your name, email address,
aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location. A short line
about where you are in the building process is also nice. Avoid
bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary
space in the archive.
- DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is
easily obtainable from other widely available sources. Consult the
web page or FAQ first.
- If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of
your response the same as that of the original post. This makes it
easy to find threads in the archive.
- When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your
response. DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the
reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. The impact that
quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive
can not be overstated!
- When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT
then go ahead and reply to the List. Be aware that clicking the
"reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your
response to the original poster. You might have to actively address
your response with the original poster's email address.
- DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something
to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal. "Way to go!", "I
agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent
to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large.
- When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to
comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly
contribute something valuable.
- Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone
polite and respectful. Don't make snide comments, personally attack
other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously
controversial issue. This will only cause a pointless debate that
will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing.

Fellow RV builders,
The DRDT-2 (Deep Reach Dimpling Tool) from ExperimentalAero (www.experimentalaero.com) will be at the Copperstate Fly-in (Casa Grande, AZ) www.copperstate.org . Stop by the Avery Tools booth and see the tool that makes dimpling easy, consistent, quiet, safe and less fatiguing then the standard impact c-frame dimpler.
I had hoped to have a dimpling contest between the DRDT-2 and the impact c-frame
dimpler. The Copperstate organizers don't permit noisy demonstrations that will
interfere with the other businesses in the vendor booth area. So the only
demonstrations of a deep reach dimpling tool at the Fly-in will be the DRDT-2.
The DRDT-2 will be at the Avery Tools Booth Saturday 10/9/04.
Paul

I'm about midway through adding 12 gal/side to the wing leading edges on
my -7 wings. It's not approved by Van's (the last time I checked they
wouldn't recommend the tip tank mod either), but it's already been done
by at least 2 RV-9 guys. It's a lot more work than bolting on the tip
tanks, but only costs about $200-$300 total to do. It's got to be done
while you build & it ain't gonna be maintenance friendly, so it meets
traditional aircraft standards. ;-)
Email me off list if you want details.

At the recent RV Forum in Fulton, NY, there were RVs there with extended
range tanks. One had them in the leading edge, like Van's, one bay
outboard for the stock tanks, and the other had (I believe) 12 gallons in
the baggage compartment. I have pics of both, if people want to see.
