I originally installed Van's plastic lines for the passengers brakes (inside
cockpit) per the then convention for an Rv-6A back in 1994. I replaced them
before ever flying, when I tugged on a su ...

I think I did require an underwear check, Jeff. Yes, thinking these things out before hand is certainly the way to do it - coming up with a check list during - is not recommended {:>).

I was once fueling my Rv-6A out of "Approved" plastic 5 gallon fuel container. I had a racing funnel with a paper filter cartridge in the center of the spout. It was a 60F low humidity d ...

Thanks, James - always willing to share my experience (no matter how embarrassing) in view it could save someone else from the same experience.

One thing I didn't mention was when about 5 mil ...

I certainly agree, Bob. A clear case of a where my design focused on a very
low probability occurrence (boiling battery) ending up almost assuring that
at some point that switch would get in the ...

Personal experience with a Odyssey PC 680 (one). Apparently hit an
electrical switch with my foot at refueling stop which removed the
alternator feed from my battery. I had two EFI fuel pumps ru ...

Thanks for the info, Sam

Bill,

12Volts at the relay could/did exist - but if you did NOT have an adequate
return path (ground) for CURRENT to flow then no current would flow through
the relay, no power to close the rel ...

Jim, one thing you don't want to overlook. Check the next time you run the engine that the starter is not engaging the flywheel. I have heard (don't know how valid) that a engaged/stuck starter c ...

I have been flying over 12 years on a Bosch (rebuilt) alternator with
internal regulator - with no problems. The only downside I can see is that
once it has bootstrapped itself, removing voltage ...

Here is some material that may serve as a stand-in for bakelite - appears to
be used as an arc insulator among other things.

Ouch! Sorry to hear about your mishap, Matt.

I had put a new (more aggressive) Prop on my RV-6A and went flying.
Neglected to determine at altitude the effect of the prop on airspeed when

Ralph, I had exactly the same situation with my Rv-6A with the tail squat. Then I had a rather hard landing that bent one of the gears (actually both), when I got my replacement gears from Harmon ...
