Hoping to get out to the RV in a couple days (still in recurrent). I really miss that thing! Nice sunny day on Thursday here in N.TX. Hope the same where you live. OK, back to studying…
Wishing you and yours a happy, safe and RV-filled weekend.

We had a very successful RV Fly-In last fall here at WV30 (Rainelle, WV) and will have another one this year on Sept. 13 - 15. Mark your calendar. We now have an enclosed and heated 2-room shower! Built in part by local contributions and an RAF grant - it is first class! Here's the RAF...

I’m trying to get my head around wiring up a shunt and ANL load limiter on my firewall as per the attached pictures. Do I have this right? The picture of the shunt and ANL load limiter is not mine, it’s from another post. I believe it’s from a 14A, so my plan is to duplicate it. TYIA, Todd

Due to the toe on the main landing gear the outer edge of the tires get worn while the inner edge is like new. At Annual CI time, which is right now, I "rotate" the tire so that the inner edge becomes the outer edge which requires the inner tube to be deflated almost completely to remove from...
