I do not want to drill holes into the fuselage...Suggestions, pictures etc. of best way to do this?--- I meant both, the upper and lower fairings.... - thanks - bert - rv6a - do not archaive=0A=0A=0A ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 08:45:01 AM PST US From: "Bill Repucci" Subject: RE: RVSouthEast-List: on fairings Bert, Go to the VAF forum and search on "attach gear leg fairing" and you will find lots of info and pictures.

In our manual the only paragraph in reference to the ASI and Altitude tabs is in page 39 of 49 and it's state that the EFIS is calibrated at the factory and there is no need to adjust.For IFR certification biannual ,have the avionics technician contact blue mountain avionics for proper procedures. Do you have the calibration procedures for the altimeter in your manual??? If so could I get a copy?? we are stuck since BMA ???!!!!do not responde to any e mail or telephone call. Also we will call Stein. Thank you for you guys help. Andre In a message dated 10/26/2009 8:16:54 P.M.

The top fairings are pull against the fuselage with a spring,the fairings were formed over shaped modeling clay with 4 layers of fiberglass.I did 1 rv6 and two rv7 that way the 3 aircraft are a shiloh ,SIF,if you like to come and see them .

I just helped somebody else with that once.. Anyways, the procedure is same as everything else.. it's just a table of "Raw" and "Display" values.. The Raw value will show right there.. so if you're just sitting on the ground, you can enter the current raw value, and in Display, you'd enter actual value you want altimeter to show - I believe this is all "at 29.92" so keep that in mind. But as I mentioned, I don't think you can really derive any other values unless you have a pitot/static test equipment so you can generate other altitudes (that are "known"). Yes, you shouldn't need to do that as it should have been all done at factory.. but it's BMA. This is all assuming that the sensor itself is actually not broken somehow.. At minimum, you should check the calibration table.. see if there are any values entered. adjust as necessary and observe changes in behavior. (I'd even suggest writing down all the current values right now as backup.. then you can play with it and change values until you get it working right) Try BMA Discussion Forums.. I think those are still active.. and you may get more help from others that are in similar situation. Good luck.
