The aileron crossover tube length is part of the adjustment on the aileron rigging. But you can achieve the same effect without affecting the aileron rigging ...
John, The crossover tube is the one thing I would leave alone. It controls the relationship of the two ailerons. The bellcranks out in the wings are...
Dan, I read somewhere that diverting the exit air aft is really important for two reasons, drag, and cooling. I did a detailed post on this sometime in the ...
Guys, I have been getting get a very slight fuel vapor smell in the cockpit after leaving the airplane closed for a few days in the hanger. It has been like...
Jeff - Note the date on your email. We are doing our cowl now and I noted on your website about this time that you used hinges on the seam between the top and...
hi Drew, I had a slight fuel smell in the cockpit which turned out to be minuscule leaks at the bulkhead fitting from the wing tanks. I could see the blue dye...
Drew, I used the soft metal fitting seals that A/S sells on all my fittings. If the search is not successful, you could always go back through and install...
John, We have never used hinges for the cowling. We have always used camlocks for the cowl. I don't remember how many camlocks we used. We bought a kit for ...

Bryan, I bought my replacement rotor from Lancair. As Skip said, the parts are online and easy to buy. On another note guys... Seems that Cirrus has issued an...
