After a WONDERFUL weekend in Portland @ the NW RV-10 group dinner, I'm back with renewed interest to get this finished. I got an opportunity to fly Randy Debauw's -10 on Sat. What a joy! I've previously never ridden in an RV of any type, and was hoping that when I got to flying I wouldn't be disappointed in the performance, The flight w/ Randy definately put that to rest. I also picked up a TON of GREAT ideas from ED Hayden who is a bit further along than I. One of them was how to hange the John Forsling Exhaust. Ed used some Adle clamps clamped to the engine mount and then hung the strap from them, Since I have the Faux firewall there's limited room between the engine mount bars and the FF. so I had to modify some DG12 clamps to get them inserted, I made the hanging strap a tich long to allow for some vibration bewteen the engine and the fuse. I have no idea if it's too long or too short. I got the left side exhaust all connected torqued and the hanger fabricated. The right side is installed and torqued but the hanger is not fabed yet. At the beginning of the day, I finished floxing the Axel Extender Capture washers to the inside of the wheel pants.
