My girl is only 7, so it will be a little while before she can reach the rudders
to groundloop;)
She does have the Aviation bug though, loves going out to the airport and is harping
on me to teach her to fly. It is such a great feeling that she is showing
interest. Right now it just doesn't make sense for me to fly a single cockpit
and leave her at home. We need a cross country machine we can go see the Grand
Parents in as well so the 195 is a good compromise of being cool and practical
for hauling some camping gear and the family.
In another 7 years when she is really ready, I'll be able to add a Cub or 52 to
the stable If she keeps the interest.
She loves that TBM as well!

Cute kid!
Ah, yes, the TBM. I tell people if Peterbilt ever made an airplane, it would have
been the TBM...flies just like a truck. :-)

Question - how do you know how much they are closing? Camera?
My CJ gill vanes seem to be 3/4s open on the ground even after I rebuilt them to
new limits. IMHO, the vanes seem "flimsy" enough that I can easily imagine
how they might close a little at higher airspeeds. I do think that the angle
they "rest" at is nicely aligned with the air coming off the propellor, which
makes me think this angle is by design.

Not sure what remedy there might be...

I did this, but instead of a bolt, used a "single-wing" bolt from ACE - can't find
a pic at this time, but the bolt looked a bit like this, but without the hole...
much easier to press on.

Only downside is that the steel seems a bit soft and it has "bent" just a little
in use. With the tab, though, it is easy to take out and replace...

Just looking at the Vane indicator and the hand grip you can see both move on their
own accord. CHT increase soon follows.
Does varying the tension on the screw and spring in the control handle do anything
or serve as any adjustment .... like a fiction type arrangement ?

Thanks for the input and will look into it. I have a couple AN bolts coming tomorrow
and will go from there.
