Re: 1948 Landing Light Options

Could anyone who has installed a leading edge landing light in a 1948 clarify a couple details? I'm looking at the example 337 from the library.

Thank you for the pointer on that! Here's the result of that phone call, and I might add that this guy was amazingly helpful and super willing to dig into it to figure it out. He went to the 1956-62 172/175 parts catalog and found part S338-7 as 29-18, which led to part S339-2 also listed as 29-18. ...

Re: Aileron Fairlead PN 0412006 (split topic)

Thankful for the information here. Knowing 0412006 translates to S338-7 allowed them to be found and ordered. Really curious if anyone else ran into this mental curveball. Knowing from the parts catalog that 0412006 is a fairlead, then this would imply that one fairlead is two halves plus the retain...
