Re: Scott 3200 attachnment bolt
I’m still left wondering why you need to drill the spring, you shouldn’t have to nor is drilling it out a good idea. Could it be a previous owner did away with the bushing and did drill the spring for a larger bolt and as with my previous post, what about the spring adapter. That’s item 4 in the IPC...

Re: Scott 3200 attachnment bolt
Humm….the diameter of the hole in your present spring adapter ? An older tailwheel assy I guess, $20 you’re getting away light.

Re: Online Refresher Course
Looking at Foreflight aerial view looks like there’s a golf course nearby and a few farmers fields so there’s more the FAA has to sort out.

Re: Online Refresher Course
I’ve never landed at this airport, wanted to but flew past it to our Vermont convention. Many of the hills in that area were heavily wooded, so that might have been a factor and from the accident photo, just tragic luck the little gully the airplane found would have led to rapid deceleration. Very s...

Re: Oshkosh C170 Pictures
I’d like to also thank Dan Wood for often coming by, checking in on everyone and ensuring everyone was have a solid Oshkosh experience. It takes alot of effort to get to Oshkosh but it always seems worth the effort.

Re: Oshkosh C170 Pictures
Quite crazy in all the craziness of arrivals that we wound up being side to side George. Enjoyed myself greatly, It was a great convention year and a great Oshkosh week.

Re: Crankshaft Rust
Maybe I should walk back what I thought I had and maybe listen to myself :D So thought I’d post a pic, initially the groove could be felt by a fingernail but after giving it a scrub with scotchbright (green) it looks better. o. IMG_2944.jpeg A close up does show a few pits on the inside side of the ...

Re: Crankshaft Rust
Crocus cloth, to remove the surface rust, then you will be able to see what you have in terms of real pitting. Doesn’t look real good from the pics, clean it up and maybe you can post. I have a 8 bolt crank for an 0-300 and although it looks good, (no corrosion, dials good) I fear it will fail due t...

Re: Field Approval, Flap Stiffeners for the 170A
Yikes ! not an airline pilot trying to fix a plane :P :D :D . I spent several hours helping an airline pilot hunt down a short causing a circuit breaker to pop only to find he had replaced a single contact bayonet bulb with a double contact bulb. Stupid, I know I should have found the short in a few...

Left Thursday morning and wasn’t able to say goodbye to everyone.

Thanks EAA, Great show and a great gathe...
