Here's a pretty minor "Gotcha" in my plans.

Page 35-10 Step 3 has us install the two VENT SV-1 units to the
forward side skin. These vents are not included in the QB fuselage
kit, and when called,Van's had me buy them separately. Trouble is,
what I bought didn't have the requisite square flange, and I didn't
know that.

Just got my finishing kit yesterday,and guess what? There are the
vent units complete with square flanges. It's time to get out the
heat gun and remove the previously installed units,I guess.

If others have run across this glitch, maybe Tim would like to add
it to the "gotchas" list.

John, have you finalized the design of your instrument panel yet? I you
decided to use something other than the standard Van's panel )The reason
I'm asking is that there are several options (many options give more
depth/room) for terminating the vents at the instrument panel, and many
of them would NOT require the square flange on the SV-1. It may be that
depending on what panel you decided on you may be OK with what you have
installed.
