Subject: | RV-8 VS rivet length |
--> RVSouthEast-List message posted by: "Carter Wright" <cartaire@hotmail.com>
Hi all:
Thanks to Larry, I was able to finish my HS on Sunday. Now I'm completing
the VS, and have a question about the rivet call-out on the plans.
The rear spar is blind riveted to the middle rib (VS-707) with 3 LP-4
rivets. Two of these go through rib/spar/spar doubler (thick) and one just
goes through rib/spar (thin).
Is it OK to use the same length pulled rivet for these two different
material thickness?
Thanks, Carter

Carter:
In my experience, yes. They can clinch down really short for work with thin
stock. As long as they are long enough for the thickest work you're doing,
you're okay.
Keep in touch :-)

Carter,
Van's uses two different length LP-4 rivets.
-3 which has a 3/16" length has a grip of .031 - .062
-4 which has a 1/4" length has grip range of.063-.125.
Grip range being the total thickness of the pieces being riveted togather.

half of the proceeds - other half of pot goes to Chapter 309's Hangar
Fund.
If starting at IPJ and route is flown as listed, trip is approximately
121 NM. Pilots may begin their quest at any of the five airports. You
can fly the airports in any order.
FLYING MUST BE VFR ONLY. IF VFR CONDITIONS DO NOT EXIST, THEN DRIVE TO
LINCOLN COUNTY AIRPORT!
BE SURE TO STAY OUT OF CHARLOTTE'S CLASS B AIRSPACE. STAY UNDER 3600
FEET MSL AND REMAIN AT LEAST 11 MILES FROM THE CLT VOR!!! You do not
have to talk to Charlotte Approach - but monitoring their frequencies is
a good idea. 128.32mhz (001-119 degrees); 120.05mhz (120-245 deg);
and 134.75 mhz (246-360 deg). Be sure to use Unicom/CTAF within 10
miles of each Airport you are Using.
See www.eaa309.org <http://www.eaa309.org/> for more information or
Call Ronnie Brown at 704-892-5122 or email romott@sprintmail.com
See http://skyvector.com/#8-104-7-0-0 for Charlotte Terminal Area Chart.
Pilots, passengers, in-laws, anybody can purchase hands and either have
someone who is flying (or riding) the Run pick up cards for them. Or a
non-flying participant can draw all five cards at Lincoln County
(terminus).
Flying Participants may draw as many as two (2) cards PER stop (or 1-5
cards at Lincoln County).
In case of a tie - Participants will draw one additional card - HIGH
card wins. Decisions of the Judges are final.
Poker Hands:
1. A poker hand consists of five cards
2. Ace is HIGH, NO Wild Cards, NO Jokers
3. Winning combinations (from highest to lowest):
FIVE OF A KIND - Not a normal poker hand but since we are drawing from
several decks at the different airports, this CAN happen and would be
the winner.

STRAIGHT FLUSH - Five cards in sequence, same suit
FOUR OF A KIND - Four aces down to four two's

NOTE*** - cards MAY NOT be exchanged between hands.
Any questions or if I have overlooked anything, let me know!
HAVE FUN AND FLY SAFE!
If you are starting from another airport on the list, you may pay for
your hand at Lincolnton County Airport. Non-flying participants may
draw all five cards at Lincoln County.
