Yesterday, after waiting seven weeks for an inspection and another twelve
days for the inspector to finish the paperwork, RV9A N61DX took to the air.
Aside from high cylinder temps, everything went well. This is a nice
airplane!

As I built the wings I diligently followed Van's directions and drilled
the hole for the pitot tube when they called for it. Now, before I
close up the wings I realized I would like to install the Dynon EFIS
unit along with their pitot tube so I can also have an AOA indicator.
The problem is that the bracket I bought to hold the pitot tube doesn't
cover the hole I have already drilled for the Van's tube.
What do you suggest I do?
A) Leave the hole open?
B) Drill out the two adjacent rivets and put a small plate behind the
spar web flange to cover the hole and put move the Pitot tube down?
C) Return the Dynon pitot tube, due w/o the AOA, and just use the Dynon
EFIS with the Van's pitot?
Thanks for the help.

I had exactly the same dilemma, I used the plate and a nice(almost) round
piece to fill the drill hole. it worked out OK

Has anybody been through the dilemma of researching the viability of insuring an
RV9A with a non Van's approved engine? Specifically the Egenfellner Subaru.
So far Insurer's either will not write period, or the cost is prohibitive.
Any comments will be welcome but keep in mind there are pro's and con's for both.
Doing the Ben Franklin approach is an interesting study.
Thanks

Go to the Eggenfellner site, http://eggenfellneraircraft.com/ (FAQ page)
and/or the subaruaircraft@yahoo.com group, and you'll find there hasn't been
a problem insuring those firewall forward complete engines.
