    Subject: Re: get a grip
    From: "Lockamy, Jack L" <jack.lockamy@navy.mil>
    Here's how I wired the PTT switches in the RV-7A: To keep it simple, I installed a Ray Allen cushion stick grip with a single PTT switch on top of the pilot's stick. So that I could easily remove the passenger stick when flying alone and use the passenger seat for charts or bags and/or when the passenger didn't care to get any 'stick time', I installed the co-pilot PTT switch on the panel directly in front of the passenger. It literally took less than a second to remove the co-pilot stick and about 2 seconds to 'put it back in the hole'. No inadvertent pushing the co-pilot PTT or mistakenly using it instead of the voice-activated intercom. In my previous aircraft, the passenger always seemed to forget the intercom was voice activated and didn't require you to depress the PTT. Flaps, trim, starter, a/p disconnect, etc. on the stick is far too complicated for me and un-necessary in the RV-7/7A in my humble opinion. I will wire my next plane the same way.... KEEP IT SIMPLE!

    Hello Group, I am about to order the engine and prop for my RV-7A. The Hartzell constant speed prop comes either 72" or 74". Ken at Van's could not give me a compelling reason to go either way with a nose wheel plane. Does the group have any thoughts?. Thanks. JR __________________________________________________

    I still have to do this step, and I'm about to paint the interior. Is this article online somewhere? Or does someone have the dimensions noted?
