I am going to make the trip for a couple of days, probably Wednesday and

Since this is my first trip, does anyone have a few pointers? Big question
is
how does one find anything in that place?

| Subject: | Flap Controller: Does anyone make this? |
I was wondering if anyone makes a gizmo that would go into the flap circuit that
would allow a single momentary push position the flaps into 10 then a second
would move it to 20 and so on? Obviously the same going the other way.
I could live with a gizmo that just ran applied the power to the flap motor for
X number of seconds either down or up for each push as long as X is something
I could set.

http://www.aircraftextras.com/ sells their Flap Positioning System. The
"plus" model also remembers your elevator trim position for each stop too.
I think it is overkill and (as a gadget nut and 701 owner) I have one that I
don't need. Make me a ridiculous offer.

I will be there all week working as a volunteer EMT picking up dehydrated spectators.
Obviously a big ditto on drinking a lot of water. Good walking shoes
is also a plus. I have transported a lot of women in high heals to the parking
lot over the years due to blisters. Buy the convention guide when you get there
and spend some time looking at the forum and workshop schedules. You obviously
will not have time to do everything you want to do, but at least you will
have choices to plan around.
Have fun!

It is overkill but it is what I was asking for. The auto-trim is kinda cool though.
Which one do you have, the one with or without the auto-trim?

| Subject: | Back issues of Zenair Newsletter on CD disk |
The Zenair Newsletter is excited to announce the availability of a
computer CD disk that contains a compilation of the last 166 issues of
the newsletter, spanning over 30 years!
For the first time, this CD archive allows a Zenith builder or pilot to
have access to the entire wealth of information and history available in
the complete library of newsletters.
It was quite an undertaking - each and every back issue was scanned onto
an easy to use CD disk. Using modern computer technology, this provides
some amazing capabilities. In addition to providing direct access for
reading each issue, the most useful feature of this technology is the
ability to search for a word or words across the entire library of
issues - within seconds! This capability means that you can quickly
locate any topic in the library of newsletters by typing in a keyword in
the search box on your screen. For example, by entering "Memo from
Chris", you can quickly navigate to each article that Chris Heintz has
contributed to the newsletter. Another example: typing in "edge
distance" took me to an article from Chris about correcting a problem of
having too little edge distance while building. The possibilities are
endless - and - it is a lot of fun to search for those forgotten and
hard to find articles from builders over the last 30 years of Zenith
aircraft building!
Each newsletter is in its own PDF file on the CD which means you can
display each newsletter page on your computer screen and make the
typeface as large as you want for easy reading. You can also print any
individual page to create your own hardcopies for easy reference. The
latest copy of Adobe Reader is included so that no special software for
your computer is required. You may be up many nights reading these back
issues for the priceless information about all things Zenith as they
apply to your project.
Further info is available at www.zenair.org

I'm planning on flying my Zodiac in on the weekend before and staying

Bring some good walking shoes, sunscreen, a water bottle and a hat.

That is definitely something you want to have wired right before you fly with it
the first time.
I have to ask. Why didn't you install it?

I never finished my 601XL and the 701 has manual flaps.
If you look at the wiring diagram you can kill it or override it in case of
a malfunction.

Hi All:
For some unknown reason our normal Monday evening chat room seems to
have quit working. I have tried several times today and I still cannot
bring it up.
Sooooooooooooooo.............. This afternoon I threw together a new
public chat room!
Would like to try it out this evening at 8:00 Eastern Time and would
appreciate it if some of you could stop by and try it out. We can go
back to the normal Monday evening schedule, but need to make sure the
chat room works as it should.
You will be ask to Enter a Username. That is what will appear ahead
of all your postings to the chat room.
The address is: http://www.mykitairplane.com/chat
Will be there this evening at 8:00. Hope some of you can make it as
well.

I will be there camping out for the week in the north 40 with friends. The plan
so far is to try and ride that Light Sport Recumbent from Manitowoc at the Boat
dock. Don't know if it will be safe but I am looking into it. Otherwise
Miss Piggy (Harley Ultra Classic) and I will be there.
