I have an acquaintance who had a throttle cable failure at the =
termination.=20
Consequently since my rice burner was set up for a throttle cable and a =
cruise control cable I just ran two throttle cables for the redundancy.
 food for thought   at least a small snack.

  Since you can get some slop in cables - especially when they run quite =
a distance, I decided to slave the two throttle quads with a torque tube =
that runs behind the instrument panel.  This way both throttles are =
connected to a stiff bar that then operates one cable back to the =
engine.  If you look at the web address I gave you, there are some =
photos that show the installation.

  Kevin,

  I was thinking of doing the same with the throttles- did you just =
slave the co-pilot to the pilot? or do they both run to the firewall?

  We installed dual slaved P-51-style throttle quadrants.  The mixture =
and prop controls are push-pulls.

  I've been following your progress through Milt - Keep at it!

  Kevin,

  I remember Milton told me that you were doing some airbrush painting =
on the plane- looks interesting! I am still a way off, getting my engine =
installed now, but will plan to fly before interior installation (except =
for the seats of course) so I am trying to get some ideas =
together....... I would be interested to see the exterior paint whenever =
you get them uploaded, please let me know,    also, what is the black =
handle to the left of the instrument panel? Is it the throttle, with =
vernier control for mixture and prop?    Really nice job, wish I was =
done too..............

  Alex,

  I just got the plane back from the interior shop two days ago.  Did a =
final w&b and finished flying off my 40 hours yesterday - on the 100 yr =
anniversary!

  =20

  I do have a place you can view all the photos during the construction =
process, however, I don't have any pics of the paint job on it - I =
haven't taken any yet.  There is so much detail in it that unless you =
are standing right in front of it, you can't really appreciate it - =
pictures just don't do it justice.  However, I will upload a few pics of =
my interior today.  The photos are at Sony Imagestation - you have to =
join (create user name & password) - it's free.

the cover of this month's America's Flyways.

  Kevin,

  Do you have a web site or any other pictures of your aircraft? - I am =
interested in the paint scheme and interior that you used- it is hard to =
see clearly in the rather small picture on the web site, and I would =
like  more detail if possible...

  =20

  Thanks

  Thanks, Pete.  It was quite a thrill to see our picture on the front =
page - we were expecting something much smaller in the Living section. =
If Saddam was captured just a little bit earlier - we would have been =
bumped - timing is everything!

  Congratulations to Kevin Steiner and Brooke Bessesen!!!!!!  Their =
Velocity is gracing the front page of the Arizona Republic as a part of =
celebration of flight in AZ - in preparation for the 100th anniversary.  =
For those of you not familiar with AZ Republic, it is the state's =
largest newspaper and is published primarily for the Phoenix metro area =
but is available statewide.  The picture is great publicity for =
Velocity.  All in the picture look great - your dog is a wonderful =
touch..........  The picture is at =

  As a aside, Kevin and Brooke, we didn't realize you had moved to Deer =
Valley Airport.  Where are you located (Kevin, I think you know we are =
at the SE hangars at 21-5)?  We'd love to come and see your airplane =
while we are out there.  We've been out most weekends trying to fly off =
our 40 hours.  We're about 1/2 way done.  We fly on most Saturdays in =
the AM and on Sundays during the mid-day.  Let us know when you are =
usually out there and hopefully we can come by to see your beautiful =
Velocity.
