Hi Terry,
My name is Terry! I saw the email for the June 4-5 Aeroelectric Workshop in
Apex, NC and may be interested! I am planning to build an RV-8, although I
don't think I will be able to start for a couple of years because I don't
have workshop space presently. I already have Bob's Aeroelectric manual and
believe the course would be beneficial. I wouldn't be able commit to the course
until about the middle of February when I could confirm a change of
vacation.
Any further info that you have would certainly be appreciated.
Regards,
Terry Swindle

Hi Gang,
For those of you looking to go a little 'faster' in your RV....here's
a GOOD article on Dave Anders and his RV4....about 6mph FASTER than
John Harmon's HRII.

RV-4 NEW CAFE TRIAVIATHON CHAMPION
BY BRIEN A SEELEY AND THE CAFE BOARD
The CAFE Board was initially surprised to learn that an RV-4 builder
wanted an opportunity to break the Triaviathon record. We explained
to him that the CAFE Triaviathon record attempts were made by
invitation only. To qualify, an aircraft was required to exhibit
outstanding performance in top speed, climb and stall speed. The
typical candidates were aircraft with well over 300 horsepower.
We politely told the RV-4 builder that we would consider hosting his
record attempt if he would submit an explanation of how his aircraft
could realistically qualify as a contender. This was, after all, a
very difficult record to break. The original Triaviathon record, set
by John Harmon in the Harmon Rocket on May 8, 1993 had stood for over
4 years. Jeff Ackland's record attempt in March 1997 in the 500 hp
Legend, had missed the record by about 8%. Jeff had vowed to return
with more horsepower in the Legend.
The RV-4 builder was persistent. He submitted an im- pressive list of
his RV-4 performance modifications. That list, shown in the sidebar,
unquestionably qualified him as a true student of CAFE racing ideas.
But could an aircraft with only 200 hp seriously challenge the
record? We decided to let him have a shot at it.
When he arrived at the CAFE Foundation hangar, it became apparent
that this RV-4 builder meant business. He practiced dentistry in
Visalia, California as his day job. By night, however, he was a
passionate airplane builder. His name was Dave Anders. He seemed
deceptively calm and mild mannered for a man who was about to make a
world record attempt. The care and precision evident in all of his
many RV-4 modifications spoke volumes about the depth of his
commitment to this project. Several of these modifications merit
The polished aluminum finish on this aircraft, which revealed every
rivet head, showed superb metalwork. The elegantly simple and clean
design of the controls, hardware and interior must also have been a
factor in this aircraft winning so many workmanship awards. However,
besides per- fecting the aircraft's appearance, Dave also focused
intensely on drag reduction and increasing the engine's power output.
This passion for excellence in both cosmetics and per- formance
suggested he might surprise us with his score.
Preparing N230A for the record attempt would mean achieving an
optimized power to weight ratio. This meant removing as many non-
essential parts of the aircraft as was legal within the FARs. At the
August 1997 Oshkosh Convention, when Dave made the decision to go
after the record, he began dieting. By the time he arrived at CAFE,
he had lost 23.5 pounds of body weight in 7 weeks! He figured that
every pound he lost would increase his rate of climb by 3 fpm.
The cooling system modifications include 34 square inches of total
inlet area through two machined, axi-symmetric inlets with internal
diffusers to a downdraft plenum. The cooling outlet is 24.7 square
inches and is augmented with exhaust flow. The fuel injector servo
throat was opened and its diffuser re-profiled, eliminating 3 of the
4 ram sensing tubes in the throat. Holes, radii and polished chamfers
were used everywhere possible to save weight.
TRIAVIATHON HISTORY
The CAFE Triaviathon rewards the best combination of top speed, stall
speed and rate of climb. These three flight regimes represent an
aircraft's 'athleticism' and mutually conflict from an aircraft
design point of view. For example,designing for low stall speed
typically limits an aircraft's top speed, and top speed often demands
shorter wing spans which reduce climb performance.
The perpetual CAFE Triaviathon Trophy, created by the CAFE Board in
1993, symbolizes this conflict in aircraft design. On display in the
EAA Air Adventure Museum, it honors the aircraft designer and the
pilot who set records in this event. These records are also certified
by the National Aeronautics Association.
The Triaviathon scoring formula is:
28110625 x [Vmax x ROC]2
Score = [4100625 + Vso4] x 109
where Vso is stall speed, ROC is rate of climb and Vmax is the top
speed at 6000' pressure altitude.
The formula is complex because it was designed to proportionately
reward stall speeds between 35 and 70 mph. Stalls above 70 mph
receive a progressively increasing scoring penalty. Stalls below 35
mph do little to improve the score.
The measured rate of climb is converted to equal that for the
altitude window of 2500'-3500' in standard day atmosphere.
An initial, high speed calibration flight is performed while
recording airspeed and altitude on both a wingtip barograph and a
cabin barograph. The barograph, mounted on the wingtip, uses its own
calibrated pitot-static source while the cabin barograph is connected
to "T" fittings in the aircraft's pitot static system. The cal-
ibrated airspeeds (CAS) recorded on the wingtip barograph provide a
correction table for the cabin barograph recordings.
The wingtip barograph is removed for the second flight and the
maximum speed is recorded by the cabin barograph only. That speed is
then cor- rected to CAS using the airspeed correction table derived
from the wingtip mounted barograph. If the test flight shows that the
stock static system is accurate, the rate of climb performance of the
second flight, made without the wingtip barograph, can be used for
scoring. If the static system is not accurate, the ROC from the first
flight is used in the scoring.
PREPARATIONS
Dave arrived at the CAFE hangar on Friday, September 26, 1997, with
his wife, Diane, and an entourage of well-wishers. The first task was
to drain all of the fuel from his aircraft and measure its empty
weight. N230A weighed just 975 lbs. empty including the IO-360 A1A
Lycoming engine and Hartzell constant speed propeller. Installation
of the barographs and camcorder was made by the CAFE team in
preparation for a record attempt at dawn. Everyone hoped for clear
skies and smooth air.
Meanwhile, Dave applied thin blue translucent Mylar tape to all gaps
and surface slits on the aircraft to reduce leakage drag. He
installed a very small "racing" tailwheel. Tiny, precisely-built
afterbody fairings for the fuel tank quick-drains and aileron hinges
(using scaled airfoil coordinates!) were installed in preparation for
the record run.
Dave arrived the next morning wearing very light clothing ("Hammer
pants") and very lightweight shoes like those used by wrestlers. He
skipped breakfast and made one last trip to the bathroom before
climbing into N230A.
The first flight was made with about 12 gallons of fuel. Stall speed
was recorded on the wingtip barograph. Dave exhibited great piloting
skill as he delicately approached stall using the maximum allowable
manifold pressure (14" Hg.). The Vmax speeds registered on the
wingtip and cabin barograph were recorded and compared.
The second flight was made with about 8 gallons of fuel, allowing
just enough for VFR minimums. The rate of climb and Vmax part of
Dave's record derived from the second flight. During those Vmax runs,
the propeller turned at just over 2900 RPM, the limiting speed for a
constant speed prop.
TRIAVIATHON RECORDS
The original Triaviathon record was set by John Harmon in the
Lycoming IO-540 powered Harmon Rocket II on May 8, 1993. His
achievements were:
Top Speed 244.79 mph.
Rate of Climb 3330.21 fpm.
Stall Speed 56.36 mph.
Score: 1316.45.
Dave Anders' RV-4, on September 27, 1997, achieved the following:
Top Speed 250.71 mph.
Rate of Climb 3308.39 fpm.
Stall Speed 44.78 mph.
Score: 2381.24.
This bettered John Harmon's previous record by over 1,000 points
and 'raised the bar' so high that future Triaviathon contestants may
have to use aircraft that are 'purpose-built' for the event. As one
considers what kind of aircraft that would be, many very challenging
design questions arise. Would it have more span? a thinner wing?
retractable gear? full span Fowler flaps?
Dave's plans for future modifications are a carbon fiber cowl,
elevator and rudder, along with a fastback canopy to reduce flow
separation at the canopy trailing edges. There is a clear possibility
that his record may be broken in the near future by a woman aviator --
his wife, Diane!!
CONCLUSIONS
A highly modified RV-4 has shattered the CAFE Triaviathon record.
David W. Anders, pilot/manufacturer and Richard VanGrunsven,
designer, will have their names inscribed upon the perpetual CAFE
Triaviathon Trophy and will be officially recognized at the 1998
Oshkosh Convention for this new world record.
It is noteworthy that the RV-4 aircraft is not purpose-built for Tri-
aviathon competition; it remains a 2-place, aerobatic, efficient
cross-country travelling machine. The big lesson from this new record
is that keeping an aircraft's weight to a minimum has a magical
effect upon its performance. Efficient structural engineering
deserves the same attention as drag reduction and engine hot-rodding.
It was a pleasure and a privilege to host Dave Anders and his RV-4
for its record attempt in the CAFE Triaviathon. He should be
congratulated for his extraordinary achievement in producing this
remarkable aircraft and its new world record.

Curtis, Larry and I made this trip last year ... a great start to the spring
flying season. It is only about 1 1/2 hours by RV ... lets have more this
year representing SERV !!
Len
Just a heads up gang, this years date is set as February 26th.
weather permitting. This is what was in the RVator last year. I'll
keep everyone informed.
WOW, what can I say? 86+ RVs and over 107 total aircraft this past
February 28th at i39 Richmond, KY.
http://members16.clubphoto.com/rick742624/guest.phtml
Big thanks to Rick Schwandt for the pictures.
What started out as an informal UFO (Ultimate Fly Out) by the Ohio
Valley RVators to my shop, turned into a great kickoff for this years
fly-in season. As most on the RV lists are aware, I moved the event
from my shop to the airport two weeks prior to the event. At that
time, I made some phone calls to round up door prizes. The weather
forecast for the entire east coast promised beautiful weather, this
time we were not disappointed.
The first arrival was from the Michigan, Indiana border and was at
7:40AM. By this time the local EAA chapter had coffee and free
donuts. Shortly thereafter, the pattern was full of RVs coming from
all directions. It was a continuous dialogue of "flight of four
inbound with traffic in sight", "flight of two following flight of
two". Give credit to the pilots, at no time did I ever witness
anything remotely compromising. I took care of parking RVs on the
ramp until it filled. The ramp was double stacked, leaving taxi
space between rows. My youngest son and a friend took care of
directing arrivals on the taxiway where pilots were allowed to park
there own airplanes as they wished. The taxiway is nearly 1500'
long. We had RVs and certified, parked wingtip to wingtip nearly to
the end of the taxiway. By the way, we tried to only allow RVs onto
the ramp. Reserve parking was saved for TeamRV and the Ohio Valley
RVators as they promised to put on three different formation
flights. TeamRV, led by Mike Stewart arrived from Atlanta with a
flight of 9, as did Ohio Valley, led by Rick Gray. Ohio Valley had
either 17 or 18 arrivals. Indy Wing topped the list with 20 RVs
which included 2 fire breathing Super 8s. 12 represented the TN
VALLEY BUILDER GROUP; the Palmetto Wing had 3 along with 3 from
SERV. I believe the group from Pontiac, MI made it in along with a
two from Florida, west from MO and from north east of DC. At noon I
took a little break and started counting airplanes. A couple RVs had
already left by then so I added them to the count. At noon we had 86
RVs and 107 total aircraft for the fly-in. More RVs arrived after
noon but I did not try and keep count, as I was busy with lunch,
formation flying and the door prizes. I also squeezed in a
little "shopping" time walking and looking at RVs.
After a lunch of hamburgers, hotdogs and free Hooters wings TeamRV,
as a flight 5 and Ohio Valley, as a flight of 5 put on individual
formation flight demonstrations, which would make the most harden
envious. Icing on the cake came form a final 8 ship formation
showcase as a joint formation flight demonstration made up of both
teams. A reporter and photographer went up with TeamRV. Stunning
photographs now grace the front page of the local Sunday paper.

Just a heads up gang, this years date is set as February 26th.
weather permitting. This is what was in the RVator last year. I'll
keep everyone informed.
WOW, what can I say? 86+ RVs and over 107 total aircraft this past
February 28th at i39 Richmond, KY.

Big thanks to Rick Schwandt for the pictures.
What started out as an informal UFO (Ultimate Fly Out) by the Ohio
Valley RVators to my shop, turned into a great kickoff for this years
fly-in season. As most on the RV lists are aware, I moved the event
from my shop to the airport two weeks prior to the event. At that
time, I made some phone calls to round up door prizes. The weather
forecast for the entire east coast promised beautiful weather, this
time we were not disappointed.
The first arrival was from the Michigan, Indiana border and was at
7:40AM. By this time the local EAA chapter had coffee and free
donuts. Shortly thereafter, the pattern was full of RVs coming from
all directions. It was a continuous dialogue of "flight of four
inbound with traffic in sight", "flight of two following flight of
two". Give credit to the pilots, at no time did I ever witness
anything remotely compromising. I took care of parking RVs on the
ramp until it filled. The ramp was double stacked, leaving taxi
space between rows. My youngest son and a friend took care of
directing arrivals on the taxiway where pilots were allowed to park
there own airplanes as they wished. The taxiway is nearly 1500'
long. We had RVs and certified, parked wingtip to wingtip nearly to
the end of the taxiway. By the way, we tried to only allow RVs onto
the ramp. Reserve parking was saved for TeamRV and the Ohio Valley
RVators as they promised to put on three different formation
flights. TeamRV, led by Mike Stewart arrived from Atlanta with a
flight of 9, as did Ohio Valley, led by Rick Gray. Ohio Valley had
either 17 or 18 arrivals. Indy Wing topped the list with 20 RVs
which included 2 fire breathing Super 8s. 12 represented the TN
VALLEY BUILDER GROUP; the Palmetto Wing had 3 along with 3 from
SERV. I believe the group from Pontiac, MI made it in along with a
two from Florida, west from MO and from north east of DC. At noon I
took a little break and started counting airplanes. A couple RVs had

Yup this was a good outing. No ... a GREAT outing. Everything just clicked
weather-wise so a lot of people showed up.
I would think we could more than double last year's "SERV" attendance. {:-)
If we can get a dozen on short notice to Stanton's, we should be able to
duplicate that for this trip.
Whaddaya think, Len, Bill, Larry, et. al. ?????
