    No date set yet. Maybe this fall. Need to get Fred to quit flying around and buying airplanes, and settle on a good date for the event.

    Subject: Re: A need for airspeed.
    Dennis, I'm in the process of rebuilding a W-8 tailwind with W-10 wings. Being a long time A&P mechanic, I wasn't very comfortable with not being able to see inside the wing for inspection. So I added two 3"X 5" inspection holes per wing. They were added using AC 43.13-1b para. 1-51 plug patch instructions (fig 1-17) with a removeable cover. By strategicaly locating them, you can reach almost anything inside the wing. The Advisory circular is available at the www.faa.gov web site. ----- Original Message ----- From: DENNIS VEST To: tailwind-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, June 12, 2004 2:55 PM Subject: Tailwind-List: A need for airspeed. Last year while flying the orange tailwind my pitot line became disconnected at the point where the line makes the 90 degree turn at the face of the front spar inside the wing. The summer flying season is here and at some point I'd like to have a working airspeed indicator. Probably a low pressure hose makes the turn and no accommodation was made for when the hose dried and lost it's grip on what appears to be a nyflow plastic line leading to the cockpit. There is no access to this point and it seems that the only way to reconnect this line is to cut a hole through the plywood skin and install a small inspection plate. It seems a shame to cut a hole in this beautifully built wing but I see no option. It's an obvious lesson that anytime you install hardware inside an inaccessible structure, it has to be done right the first time. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks Dennis Vest

    Is anyone interested in hosting the West Coast Flyin at their hangar? I will provide the food if we can get someone to set up a BBQ, and maybe some help with sodas or something. We can have it at Yolo County for the third year, but it may be more interesting to change locations. I was thinking of just a lunch and bull session, look at airplanes, fly-bys or whatever? Just as informal as in the past.

I'm currently staying in Cheyenne, WY waiting for the ceiling to lift. The Rans S7 is running terrific and we are averaging 85 kts as we head West. If I'm going to be the one putting on the West Coast Tailwind fly-in this year, it will have to be sometime in late Sept or October. And I doubt that we can enjoy the festivities at O70, my home airport. Politics there are pathetic as far as "Sport" flying is concerned. The airport manager and I are having a tough time staying on the same page. So, I'd have to find another location to support the event. Have fun.... Will catch up with you all soon.. Trip report after I get back... Bristol, TN to Bowling Green, KY to Sullivan, MO to Lawrence, KS to the Rans Factory strip in Hays, KS to Oakley, KS to Wray, CO to Pine Bluffs, WY to Cheyenne, Wy. That's where we have been so far... 4.2-4.4 GPH...
