As Gig stated, the stuff isn't anything special at all. It just happens to do a good job for this particular app (acrylic to wierd rubber). -------- One Rivet at a Time!

I picked up a copy at Brodhead, WI last weekend (yes, I'm a Pietenpol guy) and have read most of it. As Gary has already stated, it is a must have for any Corvair builder and pilot. Ten articles written by ten different and experienced Corvair pilots... this manual answered a lot of the questions I've had in the back of my mind regarding safe limitations, test procedures, things to look for, etc. I would recommend it to all Corvair folks, even if you are already flying your engine. -------- Mark - working on wings Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=255223#255223 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 10:57:21 AM PST US Subject: Zenith-List: Re: Builders dinner gettogether From: "Sabrina" I will miss the dinner tonight at Air Venture... I am still in Chicago, helping my parents re-roof our house, with the rain coming we have more work to do. To those attending it should be as Mr. Townsend intended, a quiet night... I will hang around the Zenith booth/area on and off Friday and Saturday... hope to see you guys and gals then...

I seem to remember reading a post about an inspector who said zinc chrom atic is neither desirable nor required. I was wondering what the current co ncensis is on this subject. Also=2C What is the correct order? 1. Install engine 2. Remove all clecos and prime 1. reverse above? I am finishing up on the canopy now and wondering what the next step should be.

And order of build? From: Carlos Sa Don, I too know nothing, but: I am priming everything: I believe I will never regret having primed, but the chances are pretty good that, If I do not prime, I will regret it. I wold expect that priming after the airplane is built may be a bit difficult... I have noticed corrosion of different pieces of aluminum I kept around for a while (several months to a few years). The material was kept indoors, and the atmosphere here is not particularly bad for this. There was no contact with paper or cardboard nor any corrosive substances. So, I figure better to do it than to regret not having done it. Two observations on your note: (1) Do not expect consensus on priming !! :-) (2) You wonder what the next step should be: I suggest celebrating! You are almost there! Happy building! but do not archive.
