Congrats Jonathan,
Now please slow down and do not put an artificial dead line on
yourself...Yes you CAN wait!
Assemble the plane and then stand back and go over every single stinking
nut and bolt one last time. Even better have someone who knows about
airplanes do it with you..
You will be amazed how easy it is to overlook something. Take another
day/week/month if you have to...Its nothing in the grand scheme of
things and could save your life.
Have a wonderful first flight.

I am Tom Knox a kit builder in Tarboro, NC. I have the rudder built and 85
percent of the tail kit complete. I had to put it all back in the crate in
order to protect it as I finished another project...my house. House is
complete and now I have another problem...my cardiologist say no more long projects
to worry about. I am THINKING of letting my parts go. Do you have any idea
how I would find someone who wants a tail kit.

Tom,
Let everyone on this list know about it. Which you probably just did. Also,
maybe Barnstormers. I sold a rudder on Ebay a few years ago.

List,
I just bought 3 new NANCO 4.80-8 6pr tires directly from MATCO for
$20.37 each. I ordered them Sunday from MATCO's website, and they
arrived Tuesday via UPS. Shipping cost was $14.81, totaling $75.92 for
the whole order. These are the exact same tires that were supplied with
my original ZAC kit, which I purchased in 1998. They can be found at:
http://www.matcomfg.com/catalog/index.php selecting the "TIRE; 4.80-8 6
PR (TIRT480-8)"
The reason I need new tires is that the inside sidewalls on the mains
had cracked pretty badly over the winter - their first winter outside.
A bit puzzling, since the outside sidewalls look fine, and the nosewheel
looks fine. Tires exposed to oxiding agents like ozone and even regular
atmospheric oxygen do deteriorate over time, and I guess 8 years is a
bit of time - but the part that rankles me is that 7 of those years were
in storage in my garage! The fact that only the inside sidewalls
cracked makes me wonder if it doesn't have something to do with brake
fluid (DOT 5). Although I don't have any brake line leaks, I do
remember making a mess when I originally filled them up.

List,
I just had my transponder checked last week. The whole test took all of
5 minutes and did not require removal of anything form the aircraft. I
had mentioned to the the technician ahead of time that I knew the blind
encoder from my Dynon was giving the transponder the correct altitude
(29.92 pressure altitude) and that the transponder was encoding for that
altitude, because I could read it on my ATD-300 "Traffic Watch"
collision avoidance device. All the technician did was use a device to
interogate my transponder and read its output signal. I received
official paperwork stating that "I certify that the ATC Transponder
tests and Inspections required by FAR Part 91.413 were performed and
found to comply with FAR Part 43 Appendix F." Total cost, including the
paperwork was $60. The shop was "Avionics Shop" at TWF.

Ahh yes, unfortunatly the Matco site is not very easy to use as I could
not find any tires on it yesterday.
When I put " TIRT480-8" into the product search AND selected my country
it took me straight to the tire.
I only hope the carlisle items I ordered fit!...:)

"6 P.R. 71M, LOAD RANGE C, TUBELESS"
"MAX. LOAD 745 LBS AT 90 P.S.I. COLD"
I use my with inner tubes (which MATCO also supplies) at 30 psi.

Just do a Google search as though you were looking for what you have to
sell. When you find a site or two that show up more than once, see if they
have free classified adds. Many do. Then post your ad there. I have sold
several things that way.

Just went out to the hangar to check. My original ZAC tires (1997 kit)
are 4.80-8, "NANCO" brand, load range "C".
270 landings in past year and not one sign of wear - grass strip ;-)

/Grass is certainly easy on the tires. I had more wear in 3 months off
pavement than in the next 3 years off grass.

Homebuilthelp.com is a good start. Just got their scratchbuilding DVD on
the advice of another builder- you'll find enough hints to pay for the
video.
