Make sure to put the flywheel on (ideally the prop, too) and make sure you have proper belt alignment. There shouldn't be any fore or aft pressure being applied to the alternator pulley.

I inferred from his post that he would buy a one time subscription (valid IFR approach ops for 28 days) and use it for the whole year. I may be misunderstanding this. It happens all of the time. :o

BVY, LWM or OWD may be a better alternative.

Anybody with a -3 in the Northeast?

Just like the title says. :D I am looking to take a look at some up close, whether up close or already flying. Anybody with a RV-3B would be great. Lunch and beer is on me!
