I received the following email from Dave Gamble, which led to the creation of this new section. Thanks for the idea, Dave! dr
"I?ve been thinking that it would be nice to have a section that addresses ongoing maintenance issues. I?m not a builder, I bought an already flying RV-6. I am by no means alone - as you undoubtedly know there is a huge market of people like me that wanted an RV for its flying qualities, but either cannot or will not dedicate the time and energy to build one. Many of us are also somewhat new at performing the high degree of maintenance that an experimental allows us to. For example, I need to change my tires and brakes, and having never done so I have some questions, some as pedestrian as simply knowing how to jack the plane safely. It would be nice if there was a section in the forums where we could ask and answer questions that aren?t directly related to building."
