Tim,

I think we are in violent agreement over the fuel.

It hardly seems like a year has gone by, but I need to do the condition 

inspection.

Just wondering if you have developed or collected a checklist that is 

particularly relevant to the RV-10. I'm very familiar with the Appendix 

D checklist, but it is way too generic.

 As long as you understand that nearly the entire reason that

 the fuel has a different "weight" per gallon is that the

 actual QUANTITY of fuel molecules in that gallon is less

 as it gets warmer, then you're right on.  It's a VOLUME

 issue, not a weight issue.   If you took hot fuel

 of a given weight, and cold fuel of a given weight, and

 brought them to the same temperature, they would still

 weigh the same but have different VOLUMES.

Hey Kelly,



The time is really flying by.  Just this weekend I was working

thru mine on both airplanes.  There are a few things I'd like to

revise on this, but this is the one I've used in the past.

I should probably add in the various areas that were covered by

SB's over the past years.  I just did the aileron hinge bracket

check on both planes this year and of course found no cracks.

I find the RV's really nice and easy to inspect at least from

a flight controls perspective.
