    Subject: Hartwell Latch
    --> RV9-List message posted by: Leland <Federigo@pacbell.net> I just received a Hartwell H-5000-2 latch from Laird Owens (lairdn515l@yahoo.com) for $7 including shipping. The latch looks pretty good. Spruce sells these new for $57 and surplus for $17 (plus shipping). Andy's site has pictures of one installed on the oil door: http://www.karmy.com/rv9a/pictures/fuselage/Cowl/index.htm Has anybody come up with a better fastener for the glovebox door in place of the "wingnut" fastener that Van's supplies with the glovebox kit?

    Subject: Nose leg bolt
    --> RV9-List message posted by: "Steve Sampson" <SSampson.SLN21@london.edu> The plans say put a 1" hole in the firewall so the noseleg bolt can be removed. I can find no mention of the way it is intended this hole is subsequently 'blanked' or a part. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Steve #90360 N Yorks, UK

    Subject: Strobe Power Packs
    From: "Ted Strand" <tstrand@strandcentral.com>
    --> RV9-List message posted by: "Ted Strand" <tstrand@strandcentral.com> While I was at Sun-N-Fun this year, I talked with the Whelen rep, and he said by Oshkosh they should have a 3 way powerpak that will do both wingtips (sync) and the tail (alternate). My understanding from him was that it is going to be lighter. When I asked about the noise from the long wire runs, he said that with 18 gauge shielded, it shouldn't be a problem. He also suggested that they will have LED NAV lights compatible with the RV's in the same time frame. Anyone else have some input? -Ted Strand- N371N Tank Assembly P.S. Why is everyone looking at the Yahoo groups? This is a great list and you don't get spammed like you do on Yahoo. -----Original Message----- From: Terrence Gardner [mailto:ttandt@mindspring.com] Subject: RV9-List: Strobe Power Packs --> RV9-List message posted by: "Terrence Gardner" <ttandt@mindspring.com> Any opinions on a two power pack wing tip strobe setup over a single wing tip strobe arrangement? Must make a decision before OSH QB wings&fuse are on their way . T Gardner

    Subject: Wing alignment
    --> RV9-List message posted by: "Rob W M Shipley" <rob@robsglass.com> I found two blocks under the spar better than one. After the skins were clecoed in place twist was 3/32 on each wing. I used a small block at each end to apply the slight pressure needed to remove this when I riveted the first skins on. There was no measurable twist in either wing after the final riveting was complete. Good luck Rob Rob W M Shipley RV9A N919RV (res) Fuselage

    Subject: Re: Nose leg bolt
    --> RV9-List message posted by: Clay R <clayr_55@yahoo.com> It is plugged with a stainless steel cap that comes in the finish kit (or maybe it was the FWF kit). Then goop over that with RTV. The cap is the slightly rounded type you'd put in the end of a pipe to finish it off nicely. Don't make that hole until you have a chance to fit your engine mount and can locate it exactly where the bolt will go through. The tendency is to get it too high, by the way. -Clay No spam in my yahoo account yet... make sure your account is set up on the mail options/subscriptions page to not receive any of the dozens of newsletters and such. --- Steve Sampson <SSampson.SLN21@london.edu> wrote: > --> RV9-List message posted by: "Steve Sampson" > <SSampson.SLN21@london.edu> > > The plans say put a 1" hole in the firewall so the > noseleg bolt can be > removed.

    Subject: Re: Nose leg bolt
    --> RV9-List message posted by: "Ernest Kells" <ernest.kells@sympatico.ca> Steve: On the drawing is a picture of the solution - a stainless steel cap inserted in the hole. I damaged the hole when it caught on the bolt deforming it. My work-around was to make a plate and attach it with two an3 bolts (nut on the cabin side. There is a "ring" of High Temp RTV between the plate and the firewall. The plate is snug against the electrical fuel pump. I hope that the plate never has to be removed in my lifetime - but it would only be a minor inconvenience. With the SS plug you wouldn't need a helper - just plop the plug out. I cannot fathom the situation whereby you would remove the nose gear leg unless you have a really bad day.

Kevin and I just knocked a stylish dent in the firewall with a mushroom set in the rivet gun, and put the bolt in from the front. The dent makes room for the nut.
