1st Push Pull Linkage off of Sticks

Post by Wayne G. O'Shea » Fri Feb 17, 2012 8:34 pm

Geert is referring to the first push-pull tube coming off the control column. MAM has you leave one rod end loose with no lock nut, so the steel rod end is turning back and forth in the aluminum end plug (when moving the stick for and aft). The "fix" for this is to take 2 small slices (about 3/16" to a 1/4" long) of 5/16 O.D. x 1/4 I.D tube and put one above and below the rod end ball at the bellcrank end. This will allow the rod end to swivel further without bottoming on the bellcrank or retainer washer, and will also allow you to lock the other rod end with a nut. Not a PANIC item for those that are flying, but it would be better to do it sooner than tooooo much later!

Now as for that large Christmas Present Captain Geert proposed!!! Being the pain I am to buy for at Christmas, the "wish" list I gave my wife lists a Harvard (or a T-6) and a Spartan Executive, although I would be happy with a firewall rearward kit for the SR3500 with extended fuel tanks. That's only $26,995 + $170 for the extended tanks = $27,165 U.S divided by 169 list members = only $160.74 U.S each!!!!!! Not a bad deal aye, and then I'll be able to help the guys/gals building those too!!!!!!!!

I"M JUST KIDDING GUYS AND GALS! REALLY I AM!!!!!!
