Should I put the pitot mast on now or can it be installed after I paint and get it to the hanger ? Is there any reason why I could not defer until later ? best regards, Bill ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:14:05 AM PST US From: "sportypilot" Subject: Re: RV8-List: Pitot Mast I did the vans tubing fittings and tube type while working on the wings, changed to the mast type later during the project, dynon type aoa , wished I would have done it before while I had better access, working under the wing is not as much fun, but I would not do it after paint. get it done now..

I think it would be difficult but it can be done. I'm just about to rivet the outboard aft bottom skin on my left wing and I'm glad it's already installed. It was pretty easy to intsall with the skin free. I did mount it one bay outboard of the tie down and don't think that's possible as a "retrofit" after the skin is riveted into place.

Listers, Has anybody out there ever sucessfully mounted an oil cooler on the firewall of an 8? If so do you have pictures? I saw one on a 6 today. Not sure if there is room on our firewalls but if so I would sure like to do it that way rather than on the back baffle.
