pchapman 279 #2 January 22, 2009 1. Vigil 1 is not approved. How about a hint as to why? (I haven't looked at a 1 vs. 2 lately. Form factor different enough or is it just that RI just doesn't like Vigil 1's all that much?) 2. 'must follow RI installation procedures' and 'see website and manuals' Is that standard boilerplate language or is there something super duper special about installing them, unlike AADs in other rigs? Just asking (even if doing so a bit bluntly)... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark 107 #3 January 22, 2009 I don't work for RI, so I don't know what their thinking is regarding Vigil-1. As for "in accordance with RI procedures," that looks like boilerplate to me. I've seen an assembly: interesting but not cosmic. Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just asking (even if doing so a bit bluntly)... Don't know about #1. On #2, I'm pretty sure everything you are allowed to do with a TSO'd rig has to have instructions and the rigger is compelled to follow them for the rig to be legal. So the notice is saying the Vigil 3 is approved for use only if the installation procedures are followed.Chuck Akers D-10855 Houston, TX Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyfreek 1 #5 January 23, 2009 i believe the vigil 1 control head is too big for ri`s standards, possible splitting of the window on he rig. the directions are them just covering their asses, like everyone else... just my .02 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
