    Anyone ever done this? Seems the good engineers set it up so the wing may have to come off to facilitate removal and replacement of about 50 rivets. If there's a better way (and a good source of replacement tracks for that matter) I have some friends who would really love to know.

    Any help VERY much appreciated.

    Call Jim Richards before you get yourself in a mess.

    What the other two said. Either talk to Jim Richards, join the COG, or find yourself a mechanic that's very experienced with Commanders. There used to be a factory mechanic that hung out his own shingle - don't know whether he's still in business.

    Judi Anderson can probably also point you in the right direction.
