I've spent the last several days cleaning and painting engine 
parts.  Progress, one piece at a time. I hope to be flying by March 1 
or I'll be out of money. :-(

KR> Progress!

[Paul Visk via KRnet]

Finally the Rt.aileron is made. The counter wieght came out really well.  Once 
I got the lead melted I poured it into a wooden box that I made in about 2 
minutes with my brad nailer. This weight was a little lite.  So made it a 
little wider and it came out perfect.

Thanks for all the advice from one pothead.  I guess I was a little impatient. 
I'll cut this hunk down into littler pieces. That will help.

KR> Melting lead

[Paul Visk via KRnet]

First a comment before my question.  In the book it says to use an old pot to 
melt lead down for the aileron counter weight.  I'll give you some advise. What 
you consider an old pot is might be different then what your wife considers an 
old pot is. Be forewarned

How do you melt a 5 lbs chunk of lead on the stove? I did an internet search.  
Lead melts at 621 degrees.  I'm not even getting close to that.

Why do you even need a DAR during the build?  3 visits, for what?  The FSDO in 
your city will come out for free if you can ahead and get on their schedule for 
a final inspection, which is all that is required (unless the rules have 
changed)??.

Re: KR> DAR inspections

[Paul Visk via KRnet]

Here in the US. It is NOT recommended to buy a project under construction 
without a builders log.  The thing is you have to prove that 51% of the 
airplane by amateurs and without a log there's no way to prove.  From what I've 
heard Canada has a much more stringent process. My opinion, do not buy it 
without a builders log. You're buying nothing but a problem.

Hi All; 
I am considering a project in the U.S. that has no documentation whatsoever and 
am wondering about DAR inspections. 
I want to import this project into Canada and our inspections require a pre 
cover (before box spars etc,are closed in) . 
What I am wondering is if I might find a number or something that shows it was 
done in the U.S . 
In Canada each component is stamped or stickered to show it has been done. 
The project is fairly complete all spars are closed, wings closed etc.although 
it would still meet 51% requirement here in Canada. 
I f I can show the inspections I an import as parts and then continue it. 
Any thoughts about this? 
Thanks

Tucker,
I'm planning on the two step possess as you described. Also instead of  
using 1 layer of 5.5 oz. glass. I'm using multiple layers of deck cloth so  I 
can get a tighter corners.

Either method works just fine.  I chose to counterbore the hinges and used 
flush screws with the screws offset between the aileron and the wing.

KR> Aileron hinge bolts

[Paul Visk via KRnet]

I'll be ordering my aileron hardware from Wicks soon. In looking in the book at 
10.59. It says to use 8/32 pan head bolts for the aileron hinge. Has anyone had 
problems with sufficient clearance between the heads of the bolts if they're 
lined up with each other?  Or should they be offset. I believe I've seen some 
people use countersunk bolts. Any advice would be appreciated.

My daughter in law's father how is a A inspector at Delta took me on a 
personal tour of the maintenance complex in Atlanta. It was amazing at there 
engine overhaul stations. They had shadow boards for every part of an engine in 
the order it was removed with part numbers for quick reference.  It was very 
organized.

You've got a point, Oscar.  I'm not concerned about the wires and 
hoses, they're pretty obvious, but  there were several items I made 
"mental" notes about reverse order on install and which bolts had 
tabs attached for securing cables, etc. and the "mental" notes are a 
bit hard to read this morning.  Maybe another cup of coffee and a 
sweet roll will remove some of the blurriness...

As for the hangar, I'm lucky to be in the FBO heated and well lit 
hangar and the cleanliness is just a matter of picking up after 
myself.  After 49 years of marriage some training is hard to ignore. :-)
