As per previous report in archives Rays Matco Chinese wheel bearings
have also failed 1998/1999 Kit suggest if you have Matco wheels pre 2000
you check the wheels run smoothly & if not fit a reputable make of
bearing.

Gary, Using the 1/8 rivet was just to get you to look as one. As you are
building an 601HDS your center section should be the same as my Dwg. 6-V3 dated
08/04. Look at your two rivets in the outer ribs where the drawing call for
A-5 rivets. Material thickness is: 6V5-1 (.025), "L" angle (.025), 6V4-1HD
(.040), 6V4-5 (.125), 6V4-6HD (.125) Total= .340. We I installed these
rivets I question the rivet so took a sample using these mat'l thickness to
the EAA meeting and two difference members said it was not good. Jerry

Congratulations. I have twin boys who are now 9 y/o who have seen a lot of this
country from the back seats of my 640 (OK maybe they haven't seen that much,
but it has taken them to a lot of nice places). You have a lot of great years
to look forward to. Congratulation's.

| Subject: | Great Flight over Killeen, TX |
Recently I saw Bob Stone's post about taking anyone for flight if they
interested in flying in a 601XL if they pay for fuel. I travel in Texas
a lot and most of my evenings are just plain boring so I jumped on the
chance to go flying. It was a beautiful afternoon, winds close to zero,
the only downside was the heat, it was very hot. Bob has a beautiful
601XL with a Jabiru and I was really impressed by the performance on
such a hot day, especially when you consider both of us are around 200
lbs. His plane handles very well and when Bob trimmed it up there was
none of the heavy wing effect I have read about. We flew for about an
hour and in my opinion, the 601 is a great little plane and it certainly
was an enjoyable afternoon for me. Bob is a very interesting fellow, he
is 78 years old, flies an airplane, rides motorcycles and enjoys a
post-flight conversation over a cold brew. I decided during our flight
that I will do the same thing for others when my plane is in the air, it
is a great way to meet people and make new friends. Thanks Bob!

Congratulations!
I know how you feel, my wife and I have twins, a boy and a girl that turned two
in June. We found out in the same way you did, my wife went in for her 20 week
ultrasound and they told us we were having twins. My advice is to sleep lots
now, cause when they are born you won't be getting much sleep:)
Lots of luck,
Randy

| Subject: | Re: avex rivet question clarification |
Jerry,
Point taken, however it looks as there are some differences in our plans.
For me, 6-V3 is a wing drawing. But I have supplementals for the HDS which
replace that A5 rivet with an AN3 bolt. On the center section, I also have a
supplemental as I am building a tail dragger. All nose ribs have a notch for
the spar cap and are not riveted at that location.
However, you did shine light on the fact that where the gear support crosses
the spar, there will definitely be a need for a longer rivet. 4 of these
will be needed by me, so I will merely buy some 'x-tra longs.'
Interesting that AC43.13 has no verbage concerning Avex rivets.

| Subject: | Will there be a Zenith kit version of the Patriot? |
I'm just starting to consider building. While I'd think I'd be happy with a 601xl,
the new Patriot high wing, with it's better STOL characteristics and similar
cross-country characteristics, intrigues me.
Is anyone aware of plans by Zenith to offer a kit version of the Patriot?
It seems like a good candidate for the corvair, since it was designed for the O-200.

Gee, if you could have asked that question yesterday. I just had the
cowl
off for the last week to paint it and last night it finally dried enough
I
could put it on. Give me a few days and I'll try to get you a couple of
pictures.

No rush, it will be a while before I can afford an Ellison. My first one
went with the Corvair.

| Subject: | 701 in New England? |
I have been watching all the messages go by where very generous 601 and 701
owners have offered to show off their planes to prospective builders/buyers
and I was wondering if there might be someone up in my neck of the woods who
would be willing to do the same? I am very interested in the 701 and would
love to get up close to one. Fuel and $100 burger are on me.
I live in north-central New Hampshire and I can travel as far as Boston, all
over New Hampshire and Vermont, even up-state New York if I have to. There
is a distinct possibility of a layoff coming my way (a good thing, in my
case) so my time may become very free after the first of the year.
Thanks
Dave

Not everyone uses the WWW version of the forum. In fact most don't. They majority
use the older mail list system.
They forum software then tries to place the messages both from the website and
the mail list into proper threading.
I'm actually surprised it works as well as it usually does.
