Bilbo,
Sorry to hear of your trials and tribulations. Sounds like it wasn't your
nuts you needed to grease ...
I love that observation about Hobbs meter fires. Good point!

Bilbo,
The reason I suggested Colemills, (didn't know you had a 25K investment on
the other side) is that I had once flown an A and was not impressed with the
performance and adding the horsepower that Colemills could put on the wings
would make it a really nice, safe ship. But, I guess, it's more ignorance
speaking than logic, because I was totally in love with my straight 500. The
same ignorance is evident when I hear people degrading a twin Comanche and
then find out they have never flown one. A Twin Comanche is a very nice
plane provided one recognizes its limitations. The same ought to be true of
the 500A.
This list has done wonders exchanging information between Commander
enthusiasts, but would it be of value setting up an exchange board, so if
someone has anything aviation related to sell, trade, barter, or give away,
one could publish it? Right now it's by email and if one misses the email,
it's quite a chore trying to find it again in the archive. One could publish
services of CFIs, examiners, insurance brokers with a prove track record
with Commanderites, and so on. Take your need for an engine or shell or
perhaps just spares, for instance. If someone in Australia or South Africa
has an engine and knows about your plight, such an exchange board may
facilitate the connection. You may find someone who would want to take the
good engine off your hands opening opportunities to invest in Colemills. Who
knows?
Just a thought.
Nico

A good example of that is that I posted a long list of parts awhile back and
only those who remember it was there email me.
