Other Rebel mods

[rebelair]

Hi There

I have talked to Keith Kinden several times as I also ordered my rudder
pedals from him. Sent him my pedals & he did his mods & sent them back. He
is a very good fellow. Very helpful. Does exactly what he says he will do
& his ideas are very good. Very happy with both the rudder pedals & the
tailhandles. Bob P. just posted his address on this site today. Keith also
is doing the certified amphib. floats for MAM so there is obviously strong
ties between the two companies.

Regards

Brian #328R

Keith,

My handles came with the second hand kit I purchased but Brian # 328R at
rebelair@direct.com seems to know the guy who makes them (Keith Kinden).

You can still order them from Keith Kinden, at Montana Float
Company, in Libby, MT, as far as I know . Of course, they'd only
be useful IF your Elite is a taildragger .... :-)

Will try to dig up a phone number, if you want.

So, how would one go about getting a set of these handles?
I think they would be a welcomed addition on my Elite

Hi Bruce

The handles are not too far down the fuselage that I cannot reach them. I
am just over 6 feet tall & over 200 lbs. but can still reach it OK - even
with the battery down there now - though it is painful crawling over the
battery.

I kept the allen screw on top so that it could easily be reached. Just

keep

the tubes clean that they retract & extend and you will have no problems.

I

am not sure how you could manipulate the aircraft by yourself without them.
When you are trying to back the REbel back into the hangar by just pushing
on the struts, it is surprising how fast the tail swings the opposite way
and you easily bang into something. And, as I have said before, Keith
writes the best instructions on the entire airplane.

Brian,

Thanks for the tip off, now I know who invented the handles (Keith Kindon).
They are rather nice and I like them a lot. I'm used to a handle on my
Kitfox
and was wondering how I was going to manage without them. Did you have to
re-tap the allen head so you could reach them with a wrench after
installation?

I am willing to negotioate the price and I have really no idea were to
start. If anyone knows of anybody interested my E-mail address is
Flyboy47@gte.net My home phone is (210)393-8293. My mailing adress is

Thanks
Mickey Chadwell
