On December 1st I post a list of everyone that so generously made a Contribution to support the Lists. Its sort of my way of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to show their appreciation for the Lists. Won't you take a moment and assure that your name is on that List of Contributors? As a number of people have pointed out, the List seems at least, if not a whole lot more, as valuable as a building/flying/recreating tool as a typical your magazine subscription. We won't even talk about a newsstand price... :-) Won't you take minute and assure that your name is on the upcoming LOC? Tell others that you appreciate the Lists. Making a Contribution to support the Lists is fast and easy using your Visa or M/C on the SSL Secure Web Site: http://www.matronics.com/contribution or by popping a personal check in the mail to: Matronics Email Lists c/o Matt Dralle PO Box 347 Livermore CA 94551-0347 I would like to thank everyone that has so generously made a Contribution thus far in this year's List Fund Raiser! Remember that its YOUR support that keeps these Lists going and improving! Don't forget to include a little comment about how the Lists have helped you! I love to feel the love... :-) Best regards, Matt Dralle Email List Administrator Matt G Dralle | Matronics | PO Box 347 | Livermore | CA | 94551 925-606-1001 V | 925-606-6281 F | dralle@matronics.com Email http://www.matronics.com/ WWW | Featuring Products For Aircraft do not archive ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:05:35 PM PST US From: "Merems" Subject: RV7-List: Tip-up mounting question INNOCENT GLOBAL 0.0000 1.0000 -4.4912 Fellow Tip-Up builders, I am in the process of building the roll bar/frame for my RV-7A. The frame halves are very warped and the flanges aren't 90 as needed. It has taken some time to adjust the flanges but the parts are still warped. I haven't drilled the inner supporting strips yet, that's tomorrows adventure. Anyway I have included a photo of the mounting brackets in there approximate position and note the interference with the seat back stop on the top side of the bulkhead (circled area). I believe this is common, but I haven't seen too many photos of this interference. I am considering taking a dremel tool and removing the offending material on the seat back stop. What have you done to correct this? Am I the only one (I doubt it)?
