pavement. But I know 2 other Rebels that used the same tail
spring. One had over 500 hours (Julius) with no problems before
he went to floats. He used to fly it out of Fort Langley which
has a fairly rough grass strip.

Subject: Aeronca Leaf Spring (was Composite Tailwheel spring)
All,
I was curious about the Aeronca tailwheel leafspring
mentioned by Walter and
wondered how the 7AC & 11AC models compared with the
Rebel in regard to gross
weight (1650#). I Googled these two models and came up
with 1250# and 1350#
respectively.
If these gross weights are correct (or in the
ballpark), does anyone think
this tailspring might be too light for the 1650# Rebel?
