where is troutdale and what is the n number of the 500 there? we did have a failure
similar to the one you describe, a mechanic hooked the hydraulic line backward
on the gear and it retracted when the engine was started. the gear on
that side retracted and just missed the mechanic when the prop hit the ground.
the brakes held just fine. al hoffman

Sorry, I mis-typed that - it was a straight 500 - 6209B. You'd taken
some pictures of it for me. Had a very pretty panel, but enough
corrosion that I didn't think I could get it to the condition I desired.

I can get that for you. The airplane had just come out of an annual
inspection and was being run-up. I asked the guy if they had done any hose
replacement, he didn't know. My guess, the mechanic left the gear handle up and
the
pilot didn't catch it. So, who is the culprit?? Happy New year. jb

Still parked in the weeds, still rotting away. I took some pix for another
flight group member but he also decided it was to lage of an undertaking. I
sure wish some handyman would save the old gal!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!! jb

Sad to hear that jb. It's probably just about too far gone to seriously
think about a restoration by now. What a shame...

"Annuals" on the aircraft were done "out of town", as local IA refused due to
engine mismatch (actually an engine serial# mismatch)
...but I do believe it is in annual

INDEED!! Like so many Commanders, a relatively minor problem, left
unattended to, overtakes the airplane. It is a good old 500 but has deteriorated
to
the extent that it is now borderline. Still, it could and should be saved,
they dont make any new ones!! jb

I'll bet the "mismatch" is bigger than that, but hey, I haven't seen it in a
couple of years. The GO-480-D1A is a pretty rare engine and I dont know of
any that could have been installed so??? Still, at 35K it is a pretty good
deal. It could be converted to an "HC" (Harry, do you still have a go 295hr??)
with the "Heavy Hartzell" mod for about 30-35 so a guy would only be in the
completed airplane 70 or so. It should be well worth that. jb

So true... Wouldn't it be incredible if someone put the Shrike back into
production, but with pressurization, a pair of those new Bombardier
V300T liquid-cooled engines, a Garmin G1000 panel, and some modern
props?!?!? (hey, we can dream right?)
Maybe the TCFG should try to get that 500 donated, then restore it and
raffle it off like the Swift foundation does. Seems to work well for them.

DNA: do not archive

Dear Lister,
Please read over the Commander-List Usage Guidelines below. The complete
Commander-List FAQ including these Usage Guidelines can be found at the
following URL:

Thank you,

******************************************************************************
Commander-List Usage Guidelines
******************************************************************************
The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the Commander-List.
You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules therein.
Failure to use the Commander-List in the manner described below may result
in the removal of the subscribers from the List.
Commander-List Policy Statement
The purpose of the Commander-List is to provide a forum of discussion for
things related to this particular discussion group. The List's goals
are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver
high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie
among its members; and to support safe operation. Reaching these goals
requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of
the List. To this end, the following guidelines have been established:
- Please keep all posts related to the List at some level. Do not submit
posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long
lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc.
- THINK carefully before you write. Ask yourself if your post will be
relevant to everyone. If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it.
- Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive
that is growing in size at an extraordinary rate. Try to be concise and
terse in your posts. Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and
responses.
- Keep your signature brief. Please include your name, email address,
aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location. A short line
about where you are in the building process is also nice. Avoid
bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary
space in the archive.
- DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is
easily obtainable from other widely available sources. Consult the
web page or FAQ first.
- If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of
your response the same as that of the original post. This makes it
easy to find threads in the archive.
- When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your
response. DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the
reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. The impact that
quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive
can not be overstated!
- When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT
then go ahead and reply to the List. Be aware that clicking the
"reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your
response to the original poster. You might have to actively address
your response with the original poster's email address.
- DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something
to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal. "Way to go!", "I
agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent
to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large.
- When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to
comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly
contribute something valuable.
- Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone
polite and respectful. Don't make snide comments, personally attack
other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously
controversial issue. This will only cause a pointless debate that
will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing.
