There is another thread discussing Vetterman exhaust systems. Part of the thread dealt with hangars, hangar material, where to connect, etc.
I mentioned in a post to that thread that my two rear hangars, made from brake line, had both failed at the sump, where they were crushed and bent to fit. I asked for suggestions on other materials and methods.
I purchased my plane and it had the Vetterman exhaust. I have never contacted Larry, and have never purchased anything from him.
Imagine my surprise when I got a long e-mail from Larry yesterday evening, giving some history of the hangar methods and materials he currently uses, and giving suggestions on how to make my system more reliable.
I want to say that this speaks volumes about his dedication to experimental aviation, and to individuals that he has never met or had contact with. I am truly impressed and any exhaust components or systems I need in the future will be purchased from Larry.
