Jim... It is 11pm and I just opened the series and went and dug out my antenna. I sent you the message and a picture (which looks just like the one later here). You are welcome to borrow it for as long as you like. Neal F. Wrigh

MS21055 steel, black (if silver plated, 056) Nut threads 4-40 thru 10-32 (10-32 is same as 3/16ths or 0.187) Rivet spacing 0.486 Rivet holes for 3/32 rivets thru 1/4-28 size nut threads MS21055 L (if lubricant) and 10 K (if rivet hole dimpled) MS21055 () 10 () for what appears to be yours...

Ron... Good to 'see' you. The two that came instantly to mind are contact cement and booger glue. Contact has the advantages of moving to the 'dry' to the tough and then put both items together. It has the disadvantage that someday some scraping will be required. The 'booger glue' is the...

A manual is needed to use the ARC model H-42A Autopilot Field Test Set. Thanks. nwright425@sbcglobal.net Neal

But airplane parking at the FBO is shockingly expensive. Determine an alternate if you can. Neal

Eisemann mags are the only brand that has not had AD's follow them around. The source we have used for decades is here. http://www.google.com/search?q=Savage+magnetos&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a In case that gives a problem to bill gates computers...

If they continued the method used for CD's, the step where a title can be added is not obvious. Memory says it is allowed in this sequence. (I fired up the damn bill gates PC to review the howto file I made long ago.) Assume you chose to do the Data. You see the pane that allows you...

There was an STC for the 120/140 planes to metalize the wings. If you would like to know the addresses used by Skycraft Design and the number of the 120/140 STC, let me know. For years, I tried to chase the metalization STC's but found that the FAA kept NONE of the documentation. Moreover, I...

The first time, trying to find TCDS's is tricky. E-233 is the TCDS which includes the C-85 () The ATC660 is the TCDS (before TCDS's) for the J-3 and other J-3 TCDS's include the C-85, specifically the TCDS A-691 on page 12. If you have trouble finding them, let me know..all are .PDF files. The...

Ron Dillard. You got lots of information and much more mis-information. Excepting special installations as a result of STC's or special 337's, the TCDS for the plane lists the Engine for that particular plane. It took a while, but I found the TCDS for the J-3 () which calls out Continental...

Tom-D Thank you for that reply and the correct shift was from a 172, not the 182. The mechs just found that the alt/gen/tach casting gasket was leaking a lot, though never on the ground. The post-installation of a new one is yet to prove the cure. The dipstick was also from 'something else'...

Is there a difference in the O-300 models a,b,c or d with respect to the oil in the engine? We have been told that an O-300 taken from a 182, trike gear , will leak oil if used on a Cessna 170. Thank you. Neal
