230 Hours in and getting ready to rivet up the tailcone...I like this structural skeleton picture

Looks good! I can't wait to see a stop animation video for the RV-10

Just finished temporary fitment of the Tailfeathers to the Tailcone (Just shy of 270 hours)

Standing back looking at the First Major Milestone, Feeling Good? YES!

Geoff Combs (Aerosport Products) stopped by today with my new carbon fiber overhead console. I must say that I was rather impressed with the quality and fit. It fits perfectly, so I won't have to do all the sanding and filling that others have done with the fiberglass overheads. It's also significantly lighter than the fiberglass overheads too. Since it's hot off the press, or should I say vacuum bag, the access panels, air vents, and clothes hangar haven't been installed yet.

Does that console work with the Flightline A/C system, do you know? Looks good.

I don't know any reason why it wouldn't work. The concept is the same, which is a couple 2" scat tubes attached at the tailcone bulkhead. My guess is that you'll save at least 5-6 lbs over the the fiberglass overheads that I've seen.

Give Geoff at Aerosport Products a call. I know that one of the vendors was anxious to get a carbon fiber overhead. I just don't recall which one at the moment.

I am probably going to have to revise how much fuel they hold based on the vast amounts of proseal used to hold them together but it is worth it to have no leaks.

So I guess to get an image to work I need to point to an actual image file?

Easiest way I have found is to have the image somewhere on the net-----I use Picasa, but there are a lot of others. I go to the site and open up the photo, right click in the photo, and click "copy image location". Then, when you are typing your message, put the cursor where you want the photo, and then click the yellow sun/mountain icon in the tool bar above the typing field, and past the image location into the window that opens up.

Try it, may take a couple times to make sense.

You must use the yellow sun/mountain icon, do not paste directly into the message.

Good luck.

I have my own webserver that all my images are on, but the software I use to run my gallery does not return the url to the actual image, but a path that the software uses to find the image and serve it up. This is done for security reasons and it seems these forums need a link to an actual image file and not a url that can render an image.

Bob,

Nice photos.

What are you going to put in the two cut outs?

Are you going to leave it finished as is, or are you going to get it covered with a cloth or leather?

Thanks,
Phil
