******************************************************************************
RV9-List Usage Guidelines
******************************************************************************
The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the RV9-List.
You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules therein.
Failure to use the RV9-List in the manner described below may result
in the removal of the subscribers from the List.
RV9-List Policy Statement
The purpose of the RV9-List is to provide a forum of discussion for
things related to this particular discussion group. The List's goals
are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver
high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie
among its members; and to support safe operation. Reaching these goals
requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of
the List. To this end, the following guidelines have been established:
- Please keep all posts related to the List at some level. Do not submit
posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long
lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc.
- THINK carefully before you write. Ask yourself if your post will be
relevant to everyone. If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it.
- Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive
that is growing in size at an extraordinary rate. Try to be concise and
terse in your posts. Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and
responses.
- Keep your signature brief. Please include your name, email address,
aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location. A short line
about where you are in the building process is also nice. Avoid
bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary
space in the archive.
- DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is
easily obtainable from other widely available sources. Consult the
web page or FAQ first.
- If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of
your response the same as that of the original post. This makes it
easy to find threads in the archive.
- When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your
response. DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the
reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. The impact that
quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive
can not be overstated!
- When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT
then go ahead and reply to the List. Be aware that clicking the
"reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your
response to the original poster. You might have to actively address
your response with the original poster's email address.
- DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something
to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal. "Way to go!", "I
agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent
to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large.
- When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to
comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly
contribute something valuable.
- Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone
polite and respectful. Don't make snide comments, personally attack
other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously
controversial issue. This will only cause a pointless debate that
will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing.

After reading all the information on automobile water cooled vs. air
cooled, I am wondering why anyone would consider buying a RV kit designed
by someone who doesn't understand the superiority of an auto engine over an
A/C engine. Somebody should inform Dick V. of his obvious shortcomings!
> Hi and thank you everyone that contributed their two pen'eth worth towards
the July pfa/Subaru engine discussion....the bottom line from the PFA being
:-
> 1. Don't go ahead unless you are willing to spend thousands on
certification(would an engine which has cost many lives due to icing, has to
be tested for cylinder head cracks every year due to inherent design flaws,
runs on soon to be banned leaded gas and actually burns rich to cool it ever
pass modern certification?)
> 2. Show compliance with JAR modern requirements( does the dinosaur? )
> 3. Be wary of taking sales talk at face value ( see this months pfa mag
page 64"aimed at the buyer who seeks the ultimate in modern engine
technology")
> It,s a shame that the pfa isn't looking ahead at the future and strive to
at least look at possible new alternatives. The eggenfelnner Subaru, I
believe is one of these possibilities, don't take my word for it subscribe
to the news group of the 400 or so satisfied customers.....the lycoming was
a good engine 50 years ago, there's now a water cooled injected version and
its got Subaru written on it, at this rate we'll be pulling in and pulling
out the carb heat for another 50 years!
> Please look and accept what's happening the other side of the pond pfa,
its good for RV,s its good for the environment,its good for the pocket and
it will improve safety.
