We had a lot going on there at the end of our deployment and a family emergency didn't help either. But, I'm finally back home and building again. Yay!! Anyway, I'm running Adobe reader 9 and Windows Vista Home Premium. I haven't had any trouble opening the photos on the disk. Some are standard JPEG images while others are put together into the pdfs as you know. There are a lot of very useful new photos. Just last night I was using them to reference the wing bellcrank assembly. (the directions weren't crystal clear) Whoever took the pics did a good job because they address all the right areas where questions might arise. I included as an attachment one of the smaller pdf files for the back seat/ luggage compartment so you can see if it opens on your computer. Hope this helps. -------- Mark s/n 094 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=322729#322729 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/rear_seat_installation_159.pdf ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:03:07 AM PST US Subject: Zenith640-List: Re: CAD disk and new Photos From: "pilot4pay" Thanks for getting back with us. The pdf opened fine for me, What kinds of CAD drawings are in the disc? I'll probably purchase the disc after I get my truck sold. By the way, I've been posting lots of pics to the Zenith builders and flyers club, they now even have a 640 group. Sorry to hear about your tribulations, hope things have settled down for you. Have a wonderful Christmas, and we all thank you for your service to our country. -------- Craig Smith CH640 builder SN: 0078 "Just think how stupid the average person is, and then realize that half of them are even stupider!" --George Carlin Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=322755#322755 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 03:59:58 PM PST US Subject: Zenith640-List: Re: CAD disk and new Photos From: "super58d" Well, I looked pretty thoroughly and haven't found any CAD drawings on the disk yet. There are a lot of JPEG pics, .pdf files with pics and links to an explorer (or firefox, that's what I use) type browser that links all the photos through a menu tree of sorts. They did send a whole new set of drawings though. I haven't compared page by page with the ones I already had, but they look pretty much the same to me. If there's a difference between the two I haven't found them yet. The new photos are certain worth paying for, but if they charged that much money for a few photos and a new bundle of papers, that seems a bit excessive. I haven't had the time to look further into it yet, so I've been trying to be blissfully ignorant and not worry about it. -------- Mark s/n 094 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=322786#322786 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 04:42:13 PM PST US Subject: Zenith640-List: Flap ribs From: "super58d" Ok, so I'm a bit lost on the wing flap ribs and their placement. I sorted them all out using the plans, but think I was sent too many of one side and not enough of the other. I was wondering if it matters which way the inside flap ribs face. The outside ones (ribs 1 and 7) on both side are opposite each other and look ok. The inside ones however all point one way on the left flap. On the right flap most of them point the same way as the left flap with the exception of one, it faces the other way. I took a square and made sure I had the 90 degree angle on top so the angled portion is on the bottom as they lie on the bench. I included a pic to show how I have them laid out. Anyone know how these are supposed to be installed within the skins? -------- Mark s/n 094 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=322791#322791 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/flap_rib_placement_102.jpg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message zenith640-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Zenith640-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/zenith640-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/zenith640-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
