The Beech J35 I flew for 15 years had no flap position indicator and just a spring
loaded switch (no detent). In the early days I may have looked out at the
flaps (not easy to do at night), but I normally just moved them by counting seconds
and the feel of the aircraft. The only XL I have flown was the exact same
way. So I am not planning to use an indicator in XL.

I'm curious how many different flap positions people use. Do you put in

Hi Guys,
This is my first post.
I posted this on the Engine list with only one response.
I am collecting parts for a Corvair conversion, hoping to build a 601XL. I
found the alternator & regulator that William Wynne suggests on the John
Deere site but I'm looking for a better price. It seems to me that some of
the tractor supply houses would stock them but I don't know what tractor
they are from. Where have you other Corvair guys gotten yours? Does anyone
know what tractor they come off of? I'm looking to save as much money as I
can, at the same time not skimping on quality parts. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

I just found the torque values in THE handbook :D. But I am still interested in
how to seal the fittings...

I did a dual stick mod with the finished product looking similar in
shape to Larry's. I cut the Y stick just above where it attaches to
the aileron control rod. I used 4130 tubing to make the dual sticks
and welded the assembly to the stub of the Y stick. For ease of
ingress and egress I am using a pin (I call it a pip pen) to connect
the dual sticks to the aileron control rod and when removed, the dual
sticks simply fold down to the floor. I haven't flown yet, but,
setting in the seat the control feels good and I think it will work
out fine. I can provide pictures off line if desired

--> Zenith-List message posted by: "Dave Thompson" <dave.thompson@verizon.net>
Hi Guys,
I'm building a Corvair conversion using WW's manual. After I get it running,
I plan to purchase a 601XL kit. Meanwhile, I'm tooling up.
I got a great deal on an assorted box of "Asian sheet metal air tools"; die
grinders, saws, shears, rivet guns/squeezers & stuff. Not all new or of the
best quality. I plan to take advantage of them anyway. I know they are
cheep, but If I like a tool and it breaks, I'll replace it with a high
quality one. My current air compressor is a 1 hp and needs to be upgraded.
My question is:
What CFM & HP do you guys suggest I look into for my new air compressor? The
specs are overwhelming. I've been considering a 5 HP 6.5 CFM @ 90PSI,
120VAC, at about $300.00. Should that be enough for the tools that I'll
need? I need to install a dedicated outlet anyway so 220VAC is not an issue.
I've got a very small shop and it needs to have wheels.

This is a quote I kept from a message John Bolding sent in September of
2005:
"Actually the single stage compressors make MORE cfm at lower pressure and
will pump up FASTER to their limit of 100-125 psi (depending on pump and
pressure setting). If you don't need 175 psi, single stage compressors give
you more volume for the hp. Had to explain the above to MANY plant engineers
over my 32 yrs of selling air compressors in the industrial market.
Buy the best air compressor you can afford, it will be a tool you will use
for life. LOW &SLOW John Bolding"
