Matching the contour really comes into play on the fuse bulkheads.. ****************************************** Don Hall N517DG (registered) rv7 fuselage http://rv7.donka.net ****************************************** -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv7-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv7-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Garey Wittich Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2007 4:03 PM Subject: RV7-List: FLUTING Ribs to match desired taper of VS --> Greetings: Have an '"older" empennage and instructions dating back to 1999. Understand RV-7, 8 and 9 have the same Vert Stabilizer. Is there anything in the "Newer Instructions" about about tapering (angling) the flanges of the VS Ribs to match the desired contour (taper) of the VS ??? Thanks, Garey ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:51:32 PM PST US From: "Don Hall" Subject: RV7-List: smoke system for rv7 gonna do smoke in my -7. Any reference to a site with a good design for a -7? (I've seen smokingairplanes.com, which looks like a fantastic kit, but I'm not signing up for a tank in the baggage area.) Questions: - I know there are special hoses for oil, but for the main runs from a wing tank to the firewall, is aluminum ok? (same tube as for fuel) - what's the best spot for a p the pump be? mid wing? under the seat where the oil line comes in? For electrical - planning dedicated circuit/breaker, smoke arm and smoke on in panel, add'l smoke switch in stick. ****************************************** Don Hall N517DG (registered) rv7 fuselage http://rv7.donka.net ****************************************** ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rv7-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RV7-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rv7-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rv7-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
