Hi Stormy.....was just checkin' in to see what all my SERV buds are up
to!!
A 'fuel tank kit' = 2 gaskets + a little proseal. Yup, that's it. I did the
mod on my 4 and was VERY GLAD I did it. Both 'b' nuts had been installed
just
past finger tight. Took about 1 3/4 hours to do both tanks....this included
making and installing anti rotation brackets while it was apart.
You might consider reinstalling the access plate with allen head
screws....will make installation go a lot quicker.

What's a fuel tank kit?

I'm not Rick, but . . . a 4 is still a 4, isn.t it? Regardless of any
"slight" mod.

RV-4 with John Harmon mods and mine. I like to see if I can reach Vne in
level flight. And to what altitude.

Hi Jim,
You are right!
A Rocket is a modified -4......
But it sounded like Rick has a completed -4, from the quote below:
"I did the mod on my 4 and was VERY GLAD I did it. Both 'b' nuts had been
installed just
past finger tight. Took about 1 3/4 hours to do both tanks....this included
making and installing anti rotation brackets while it was apart."
Thinking he has bought a -4 now too.........what a guy!

Hi Bob,
You aren't dreaming :
).
Bought my F1 Rocket kit last June.
Sold my 6 last July 1st.
Bought an RV10 kit last October.....finished the tail and the QB fuse/wings
just arrived last week.
Picked up a 75% completed and about 200% to go RV4 on Dec 22nd down near
Atlanta. It took me 600 hrs over 3 month to finish and paint it. 1st flight was
this past Monday. This will give me some wings till the F1 is done then I'll
pass it on.
Here's a couple pics:

That should bring you up to speed.
Oh....the formation clinic is this month on the 28th, 29th, and 30th. I
think we have about 46 RV's coming..... info here:

flying with the gang!
