Interested in your note about the FD112..will check it out. Ken Hyde ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 11:05:18 AM PST US From: "Tom Fisher" Subject: Commander-List: Powered towbar (electric?) --> Commander-List message posted by: "Tom Fisher" Hi folks, Rather than redesign the wheel, I am looking for a towbar for my 680FLP. I would prefer to go electric with the power comming from the aircraft APU plug. One reason for the elecrtic route is so that I can keep it on the aircraft therefore lighter weight and no fuel to worry about.

Also, isn't your 689F(p) a Mr. RPM (Richard P. Mackoon) conversion with the eight cylinder engines? I just got back from Florida, used the autopilot almost all the way and am genuinely happy with it. I think that I best reread the localizer back course procedure. Tried it in Lake Charles, La., and sure enough it chased the needle instead of running from it. Hit the reverse button and still didn't get the desired result, so I hit the bright red button and hand flew it. Thanks again for working with Century and Commander Aero.

Only a guess. bilbo ----- Original Message ----- From: "Moe" Subject: Re: Commander-List: > --> Commander-List message posted by: "Moe" > > Mason, > > When you say exhaust extensions, do you mean the last section on the > exhaust > headers?
