July Activities
While there wasn't a chapter meeting in July, there were
significant activities, including EAA's AirVenture 2015
which was attended by several of our members.
We also collected former chapter treasurer Mick Myall's
aviation paraphernalia that was donated by his family,
identifying the need to have a work party catalog the items
for disposition including sale. Volunteers for this activity
will be sought at the next chapter meetting.
Chapter President Eric Witherspoon visited the Kitfox 7
Super Sport project of Marvin Kea for a Tech Counselor
review. Marv is quite far along, with all of the covering
and major assembly done. He is in the process of
completing the wiring, which at this point largely consists
of cleaning up routings and bundles, as most of the wiring
is already in place. He's running a non-turbo Rotax for
power. He bought the kit "started" by someone else who
didn't get very far with it. However, it did have the "quick
build" wings which included factory covering. He noted
that the paint for the fabric doesn't stick to fiberglass, so
he found similar colors in another paint (spray cans) for
the cowling, wingtips, and wheel pants. The panel is
largely open on the right side for an ipad or other tablettype device. There is a transponder installed, but the unit
itself is behind the panel. Control for the transponder is
integrated with the large-screen GRT EFIS. He noted that
this EFIS is also expected to have an upgrade for ADS-B
when the time comes. He currently flies out of TIA, but is
strongly considering basing from KAVQ or KRYN in order
EAA Chapter 81 Newsletter - Page 1
to make better use of flight time and have fewer
distractions during the Phase I flight test period. He's up
for having us visit his project once it's out at the airport
for a pre-inspection chapter look-over when the time
comes.
Chapter member Don Berlin let us know, that “after 30+
years building off and on, made the first flight on my
Longez Dec. 16, 2014. Fulfilled a dream and flew it to
Oshkosh this year!” Don's Longez, N131DB, is based at
Ryan Field.

Chapter member Steve Hulland spent a few weeks
camping at Oshkosh as a volunteer – Here are his notes:
Melissa and I spent three+ weeks @ Oshkosh. I spent a
good deal of my time volunteering at Flight Line
Operations (FLO). FLO's folks generally work in one of
two areas. Either "traffic" where they marshal AC directly
off the runways to their destinations (AC Parking; AC
Camping; Vintage AC; Homebuilts; Warbirds, etc.) Or, AC
Parking where they actually park the thousands of AC
who do not park at the various type parking areas such.
These include, but are not limited to AC Camping; AC
Parking; Weeks Hangar; North Forty; Cornfield, etc.
FLO'S also marshal all aircraft departing. In short the
FLO "traffic" guys and gals handle 95+% of all AC that
attend Air Adventure each year at Oshkosh.
B-52 arrival
We cannot control any flying machine on or crossing an
active runway. Without FLO'S folks the Pink Shirts could
not make Air Adventure work. Pink Shirts are the paid and
qualified FAA Controllers who work the active runways,
arrivals and departures - both VA and IFR. We call the
"Pink Shirts" "COWS" and are the only ones who get
away with doing so! That is because we have great
professional and and working respect for each other. The
teamwork between us is exceptional.
Marvin Kea's Kitfox project
The 95+% of pilots who actually read, learn, heed and
follow the Oshkosh NOTAM arrival/departure rules also
EAA Chapter 81 Newsletter - Page 2
make Oshkosh happen. But oh those 5% who either do not
read and follow the NOTAM! From the pilot of a
departing G10 jet putting a 3" X 5" card with IFR written
in a single black ink line IFR sign in his right pilot
window (supposed to be in left window an readable from
at least 50') to the pilot who thinks he/she knows the route
we will marshal him/along not following the marshaller's
directions. Those guys and gals often cause "interesting"
and potentially very dangerous SNAFU's.
For those who fly to Oshkosh during Air Adventure, I
recommend you read and learn each years NOTAM. Then
follow the NOTAM rules and the direction you receive as
closely as you can without being unsafe. It is not
uncommon to handle more than 200 individual aircraft
per hour. Also volunteer while at Oshkosh. You will have
fun, help make Air Adventure work. You might "earn"
many nice to haves. From a good meal, a nice "T" shirt to
camping fee breaks and more.
For those familiar with the ex USN PB4Y currently based
at KATZ being maintained and restored at Gosshawk, you
be happy to know this only remaining PB4Y flew to
Oshkosh and participated in several air show events.
From simulated bomb/torpedo attacks to super flybys. The
Owners, Flight Crew and Dave Lindsey Goss flew this
beautiful airplane into Whitman Field, Oshkosh. Without
their dedication and skills thousands would have missed
seeing and hearing a great airplane.
You should be able to watch and see the PB4Y at the
Copperstate Fly In on October 23rd and 24th. Simply
Google Copperstate 2015 to learn more about
Copperstate. Copperstate 2015 would be a great place to
hold the EAA Chapter 81 meeting.
Email me at aztaildragger@gmail.com if you would like
to volunteer at Copperstate FLO's. I can use your help
and you will learn a skill that is both fun and helps any
Fly In succeed.

From member Ed Davis
(393-0250 or cell 444-0034)
I have an automotive engine work stand that worked
beautifully for me to mount my Jabiru 3300 and
design my firewall arrangement. Would like to sell
this for $25.00. I also have two adjustable stands for
mounting upper wings and setting their angle of
incidence and dihedral. These are available for use
by chapter 81 members.

Boredom Fighter For Sale
From Bill McLearran of Mobile Aire at Ryan Field.
First flight in January, 1995 at Casa Grande Airport
where it was built. Phase 1 testing completed in May,
1997. It was put in storage in Casa Grande after
testing and not flown until I bought it out of the back
of a hangar. After much repair of just storage
problems I started flying it and love to fly it. I’m just
too big for the airplane. It is comfortable for me but
it’s tailheavy when I fly it. It cruises at 95 with a
wooden prop and at 90 with the metal prop on it now.
The engine log has an entry estimating 500 hours
since overhaul entered in 1970 and since that time my
EAA Chapter 81 Newsletter - Page 3
mechanic and I show another 124.9 hours in this
logbook. The airframe has just 65.4 since new. I am
asking just $9500.00 locally and it includes a spare
wooden prop and a spare mag. It won 2 trophies at
Copperstate in 2009 which I have in my office.
