Hi Charlie !

Can't find any mention anywhere .....

About time they smartened up & built something with
2 arms - maybe because of market demand ??!!!! ;-)

Sounds like it might be worth a whirl ....

I just got back from a local fly-in where I talked to a representative from
Matco. They show cased a new (to me) 8" pneumatic Dual arm tail wheel part
# WHLT-8D and it only weights 6.7 Lbs. and list for $399.51. Looks pretty
good. I wondered if others had either seen are heard anything about this
new tail wheel?

Using Murphy's standard alum spring the total weight would be 8.2 Lbs.

Hi Bob
Good to hear from you. I think your right about thye market demand.Still
concerned about shimmy though.
Moving slowing on the Rebel, finished the wiring the instrument panel and
hung the engine (officially) for the first time. Thanks for the reply and
all your help. Tell Anna hello.
