| Subject: | March ARB., Riverside |
--> Commander-List message posted by: "Barry Collman" <barry.collman@air-britain.co.uk>
Hi,
If anyone is within easy reach of March ARB., I wonder whether they could do me
a big favor next time they visit.
It is home to one of the three Models 520 supplied to the US Army, being serial
number 21, Army serial 52-6218 ("0-26218").
I would like to know whether this aircraft has a trim tab on the left-hand
elevator only, or if there is one on each elevator.
If it is possible to take a photograph of the elevators, both in the same shot,
then each elevator separately, that would be a bonus.
Photos on the internet indicate it has no elevator trim tab on the right-hand elevator,
but I would dearly like conformation of that.
I would get over myself this weekend, but......................
Very Best Regards,
Barry C.
UK CommanderLand Rep.

I'm really curious to hear the answer to this. My old 520 had tabs on
both elevators, but the right one was disabled and had a skin segment
riveted over it. After considerably study of manuals, many phone calls,
and much head scratching, we never did determine how that came to be.
One plausible story I heard was that when a certain autopilot was
installed, one trim tab was disabled to assure that the pilot could
over-ride a runaway trim condition. Never was able to confirm that or
determine if my bird had that autopilot.

Sir Barry,
I found this via the web ... perhaps you can contact them for more info if
none of us can get over there.
Aircraft: Rockwell U-9B Aero Commander
They need some help with the historical text that accompanies this photo.

DNA: do not archive
--> Commander-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com>
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.
