Steve,
If you will go to the RV-9 web site on Yahoo from Doug Reeves "Vans
AIrforce" web site, I have posted a couple of POH's for a 9 out there. I
copied them from ones on the Western Canada Wing web site.
You will need to edit it for your configuration. Since I am not using a
lycoming, you may need to cut and paste from the RV-6 poh out there for some
of the engine stuff. .
There is also flight test plans and other stuff out there if you want it.
Regards

| Does anyone have a POH specifically prepared for the rv9a? I contacted
Vans and Gus e-mailed me his written for his rv6a when he was still in
Europe. I've got to believe one of those guys out there with their 9 in the
air has completed this. Gus' is well done and follows Europe's version of
the FAA requirements identical to a POH found in a certified aircraft. I'd
like to have this on board and I dont want to take the time writing my own
except for the weight and balance and engine specifics, I guess I'm getting
a little lazy after 2 years of pounding rivets. Help anyone???

I am starting on the tanks for my RV9A and would like your opinions of
tank dimple dies vs normal dimple dies.
I understand that the tank dimple dies make a deeper dimple to
compensate for the pro-seal under the rivet. If one uses the regular
dimple dies, does that leave the rivets sticking up an objectional
amoount? If that is the case, what does one do about that?
Thanks,
Dick Tasker

Hi Dick,
I used the tank dimple dies and my rivets still stuck up. I have done
anything with them yet. I'm told there is a rivet shaving tool but scary to
use. I may just take a sander to them.

All,
The rivet shaver tool I used was nothing more than a flat end rotary file
that fits into the Microstop tool. Sanding would scare me more than using
the rivet shaver. Once you get it set, you just go from one rivet to
another.

Another way is to use your hand powered countersink tool. After you dimple
and as you're getting ready to rivet, use the countersink to take out a
little more material. I found most rivets would seat flush after that. On
the wing or fuse where there were lots of rivets to do, I put the
countersink tool in my drill and used it a low speed to cover lots of
ground.

I did much the same when needed, used the countersink tool in an
electric screwdriver. the same one I use for de-burring
