--> Commander-List message posted by: alh1@juno.com
barry, i went back to the airport and it looks like the commanders have been busy
at night because there are a few new ones on the field that i have not mentioned
in the past. two of them do not have an installed serial plate. the one
in primer has been on the field for at least 10 years without flying. i am
told the n number is n303H. it is either a 500a or b, but i did not look at
the engines so i am not sure. the next one is a 500 and jim has the serial plate.
the number is either n722wr or n58me. in any event it is undergoing a
complete restoration and will be beautiful when finished and will be n58me for
the owner, marine exhaust.
the third one i do not believe i have mentioned before is without an n number but
has a serial plate. i am told the n number ends in 56B, but the serial plate
is 808 and it is a 500. we have n6289b, n628AH (formerly n6287B) n58E and
a 500a it has continental engines) n 10ME
(it is also being restored)(the s/n plate says 00A-900-9) and 58ME in the hangar.
outside we have 24c, 89m, 41C and 56B. those are in various stages of repair.
56B does not have the n number on the aircraft and is blue and white. it has
a s/n
n10me does not have the n number on the aircraft and is also a blue and white bird.
it has a s/n.
n303 h and n58me do not have n numbers on them nor do they have s/n plates. as
i said, 303 h is in primer, zinc chromate and n58me is white with green and pink
island colors.
hope some of this helps. we have almost completed a kevlar nose cone for the 500
and an upper and lower cowling in kevlar for the 500. they are beautiful.
jim schiller at lantana, florida is one of the most knowledgeable mechanics in
the country.
let me know if you need more information. do you have the ownership history of
n6289b handy and it is a corrosion free aircraft that we should have ready for
sale in about 60 days.

| Subject: | PLEASE READ - Pending ISP Upgrade For Matronics... |
--> Commander-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com>
Dear Matronics Listers,
Sometime during the next 72 hours, the ISP (Internet Service Provider) for
Matronics will be upgrading the level of service to 1.1Mb from the current
768k. When they reprovision the line, there will be an outage requiring
that the local router here be restarted. It is also unclear whether or not
the physical line will support the new rate, so some testing will be
required to verify the new service at the time of installation.
Unfortunately, I don't really have an idea of exactly when they will be
reprovisioning the line, so I wanted to give everyone a heads up on what's
going on. All Matronics List services such as email list redistribution,
subscriptions, and web search and browse will be unavailable during the
upgrade.
In other upgrade news, last Thursday, 3/13/03 I upgraded the firewall
appliance between the Internet and the Matronics systems. This new
firewall represents a substantial increase in performance and hopefully
reliability over the previous system. It will compliment nicely the new
level of ISP connectivity.
Finally, these are just two examples of the upgrades brought to you
compliments of the 2002 List Fund Raiser. A special thanks to all that
made a Contribution in 2002 and so far this year! Everyone that uses these
Lists appreciates your generosity!
I will post a short message again if I manage to get some clear direction
on the time-frame for upgrade, or perhaps when its been completed.
Thanks again!!

I averaged 160kts @ 32 gph (22 X2200) @ 7K. Went well. Had a really bad oil
leak, the oil screen housing had been left loose, and a hyd leak in one main
gear cylinder, but did fine 510 mile of open water jb

HI KIDS.
I arrived in PDX last night at 2;30AM so I am still a little tired but
here is a real fast run down.
I picked up a 500B, N6210N (Formally LV-HBA I think This is "El
Pinguino"), S/N 33 at Winchester, VA last Tuesday. Flew to Benton Co.
airport, SC I think. Then to Opa Loca for maintenance and radio
installation. Left late Wed evening, IFR, for Kingston Jamaica. Flew over
Cuba, only talked to Havana center twice, piece of cake. Landed about 11pm.
Left the next morning with a fouled # 5 spark plug on the Right engine for
Cartagene Columbia, 510 mile open water.
The airplane did OK, but was a very "rustic" example. It will be
taken to Vensuala to it's new permeant home. While there, I saw an 840 Turbo
Commander with only 1800TT, very damaged VERY corroded. Also say a 560E S/N
534. The tail has been drilled off, and the engines removed but it looked
like it was beeing repaired??
Also saw a 500S that was parked in transit, it flew out the next day
(I have a photo and will get the reg # to you Barry). All in all, it went
pretty well. glad to be home. jb

The 500S is YV-908P and the correct S/N for the 500B is 1011-32 (not 33)
sorry. jb

Hey Jim...great report..!!
As discussed previously, I will be arriving in your neck of the woods
tomorrow. We will be flying the 680F into Arlington about noon to meet up
with Bill Willaims of Air Matrix. He has graciously offered to put us up in
a nice dry hangar, and show us some Washington State hospitality. We are
delighted to have the opportunity to meet some other Commander folks, and
appreciate Bill's assistance and generosity.
After some business in Ballard and Roche Harbor (San Juan Island) we will be
departing sometime Wednesday morning for our return to sunny California.
If you're available to meet for lunch or dinner or whatever, please give me
a call on my cell 805 459 0806. It would be great to see you.
Randy Dettmer
