Glad to hear that Rich! I enjoyed watching you at CC showing off your
plane. I will be hanging my corvair on soon, so when we are both done, we
can
tear up some sky over Cloverdale, CA during one of the fly-in's.
Congrats on the new job and keeping your baby!! I had actually thought
of
buying it from you at one point, but things worked out for me and I was
able to buy a new FWF from a guy who went the Jabiru way!
Keep us updated!

Just a quick update for my friends on the list. I=99m back in the
game.
Last year I made a change in my job and thought I=99d have to sell
my Corvair
powered 601XL before it had taken it=99s first flight. As luck (my
good luck)
would have it, the bad economy made it a hard plane to sell. I=99v
e
recently found myself with a new job and the income needed to keep my pla
ne. So,
last week I ordered the Zenith upgrade kit and I spent today removing the
right wing. Yahoo, we=99re back in business. Let=99s get th
is thing in the
air.

Barry and Craig:
"The term INERT does not fit into the description of these O rings. Inert
is a one word description of something that is non-reactive with oxygen. .
. ." Not true. INERT, to a chemist, simply means unreactive to a wide
variety of substances, not simply oxygen. This is true of Viton; in my
experience, it is unreactive to a wide variety of substances, certainly in
a laboratory context. Personally, I should have no hesitation in using a
Viton O-ring smeared with a silicone grease in the presence of fuel, both
Avgas and Mogas (with or without ethanol additive). I think this is what
the original question was about.

Rich,
I have followed your project for quite a while. I'm very happy to see you were
able to hang to your plane thru the job changes. I was sad to see your announcement
of selling, but now looking forward to seeing you finish the upgrade and
flying your Zodiac.
Best of luck!
Regards,
Dave Gardea
