Dck - why do you say it must be mounted further aft? Steve.

Now, if you are actually asking about where to mount the Gretz mount on
the wing, then you are correct that the hole location recommended by
Van's for the standard pitot is not suitable. The Gretz mount must be
located more aft in the wing skin. I believe (if I remember correctly)
that the Gretz mount comes with appropriate instructions for this aspect.

I assumed that you were referring to the hole in the spar flange and
bottom skin as recommended by Van's for their standard pitot tube.
The Gretz mount is designed to be mounted on the bottom skin aft of the
spar flange.

I think the reason the Dynon Pitot tube is mounted further aft is this
pitot tube incorporates the ports for their AOA.
The instructions that come with the Gretz mount show you exactly where
to mount it, which is a few inches further aft than where Van's places
the their simple pitot tube.
Since my -9 isn't flying yet, I have no idea if where I placed it will
work or not. I just assumed the location recommended by Gretz was
accurate. There is a picture of the pitot tube installation on the wing
page of my web site.
Back to building.

I'm new to the site. I'm trying to decide between the 7A and the 9A. I'm not interested
in the aerobatics, just good flying, some good xcountries, insurance
rates, and something that's not a handful. The 9 seems the ticket, but a lot
of others are intent on future desires to do aerobatics..
any opinions. And by the way, how long after the empennage kit is ordered does
it take to deliver?

If you look at the Vans site you will see the empennage kits are in stock.

Hi Ron,
I think emp kits are in stock and you usually get same day shipping. It
just depends where you are but I think 5 days is normal.
I'm flying my RV-9 and love it. But I don't know if if I would try to talk
you out of a 7. The 9 is really easy to fly. I have a problem getting
consistant good landings. It is a real springy gear and likes to bounce.

If I was sure I wouldn't want acro in the future, I'd probably build the
-9. Virtually no penalty in cruise at the same hp & significantly lower
landing speeds=potentially safer operation. Of course, you aren't
supposed to go over 160hp & that will limit cruise speeds when compared
to a 200hp -7....
