G'day Fellas
Rod from OZ


Going to remove MAM tailwheel and spring?? for maybe Scott 3200.
Has anybody used the Matco pneumatic 8" tailwheel,if so what's it like.
Scott 3200 is expensive ,to Matco but is it that much better,
Would appreciate some info on this.

Also 595R 1997 model has MH6B gold rims with 8.00.6 tyres.
MTOW will be around 1200 LBS .
Have seen this discussed some time ago,cant recall what the outcome was.
Like to know if they will be OK ??.

Fired up the Rotec Radial last weekend ,sounds and looks awsome.
Should be flying by Xmas with a bit of luck .

Regards Rod .
595R

Hey Rod;
There have recently been two Scott 3200 tailwheels on eBay, one of them
complete with springs and they went in the $650 dollar range. I thought that
they went at a very reasonable price. Maybe a search on Ebay might be
helpful.



regards

Ian

Rod,

I would agree with Ian there. I just received a good 3200 via ebay for
$600US. Tire and tube needed replacing and no springs but otherwise just
fine.

I paid $700US for an almost brand new 3200 about 4 months ago. The only
experiece I've had with the 3200 was on an Aeronca Chief and it was just
great.

Cheers
