N291RV had its first, second and third flights today! WOW! Great plane! What a beast! Handles almost hands free. At hi cruise, it needs a little left rudder to center the ball.
Total time 1.75 hours!
All went well with only a few minor problems to work through. Idle EGT on #6 cylinder was high and was found to be an out-of-round intake pipe causing an air intake leak Late in first flight, the #2 CHT suddenly went high and was later traced to the CHT probe.
The plan is to continue tomorrow.

Well, Van's site says 143, but I don't know that ANYONE is keeping
great numbers. I only have listed the ones I know or hear about

He rounded it...com'on Ron!!!!! After this long building you need to ask!!
My guess is they pulled it, pushed it worked it till the high side looked round on the clamp side, then tightend the crap outta the hose clamp......rolled side...new pipe, no better fix on that part, wouldn't settle for less on the rolled side.

<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]--> Hi Ron,
The lower (unflanged) end of the pipe was out of round. Looked like it could have resulted from being dropped. We pulled the pipe when several attempts to seal it by tightening and repositioning the clamps didn't work. It turns out that over tightening will pucker the hose and cause a leak. The trick is to round up the pipe, use a fresh hose and just gently snug up the clamps. Wish I could remember the name of the tool we used to do the rounding. One of the guys had a set of tapered steel "plugs", all sizes. We found the one that fit, tapped it in gently with a wooded hammer, and made the pipe perfectly round.

N291RV had its first, second and third flights today! WOW! Great plane! What a beast! Handles almost hands free. At hi cruise, it needs a little left rudder to center the ball.
Total time 1.75 hours!
All went well with only a few minor problems to work through. Idle EGT on #6 cylinder was high and was found to be an out-of-round intake pipe causing an air intake leak Late in first flight, the #2 CHT suddenly went high and was later traced to the CHT probe.
The plan is to continue tomorrow.
