This is a push-pull cable in an 'S' shaped tube that spans the 2 foot distance from the firewall to the carburetor. 1. Does anyone know where I could find one? Or two? (the other side is probably just as bad) 2. Does anyone know who could replace the cable in this one? (I sent it to Aircraft Spruce and they sent it back.) 3. Does anyone know what happened to "Commander Doc"? The number I have for them is no longer a working number. Thanks for any help you can give me. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:12:30 AM PST US From: "Stan" Subject: Commander-List: Dayton Fly-In Date --> Commander-List message posted by: "Stan" Hi JB, I have to make my vacation schedule changes very soon (this week), so may I assume that the fly-in will be October 6th to the 8th?

It was last year or so some poor bastard road one down from 17,000(?) just a few miles from here in Pittsfield. Flying over the scene it was pretty evident there was no forward velocity at all..... The crash made a tiny footprint. ----- Original Message ----- From: Deneal Schilmeister (iMac) To: commander-list@matronics.com Sent: Monday, July 10, 2006 4:45 PM Subject: Commander-List: Re: Probes of cargo crashes often pin blame on pilots A three part story is currently appearing in the Miami Herald about accidents involving operators of cargo aircraft in the type of operations I was involved in for a long time. Click " Interactive | View copies of government crash reports, a photo gallery and listen to firsthand interviews" (under the picture of the MU2) to see the complete report. There are three pages devoted to the MU2 including an audio interview with the widow of the Epps accident pilot. Probes of cargo crashes often pin blame on pilotsIn the sky over Idaho in icy weather, the Cessna 208B's wings began to flutter, and pilot Fred Villanueva, a Vietnam War veteran, could not hold them. The wings moved ''side to side,'' a witness said, and then the nose dropped -- classic signs of icing.

The docket is stored in the Docket Management System (DMS). Please contact Records Management Division Nonscheduled 14 CFR Part 135: Air Taxi & Commuter Accident occurred Thursday, March 25, 2004 in Pittsfield, MA Probable Cause Approval Date: 7/7/2005 Aircraft: Mitsubishi MU-2B-36, registration: N201UV Injuries: 1 Fatal. Approximately 3 minutes prior to the accident, the airplane was flying in a northeast direction, at 17,100 feet, and was instructed by air traffic controllers to contact Boston Center. He acknowledged the instruction, and no further transmissions were received from the pilot. Radar data indicated the airplane continued level at 17,100 feet on a northeasterly heading, and maintained a groundspeed of 255 knots, for approximately 2 minutes after the last transmission. The airplane then climbed 300 feet, and descended abruptly, loosing 10,700 feet during the next 46 seconds, while maintaining an approximate groundspeed of 255 knots. The airplane then initiated a climb from 6,700 feet to 7,600 feet, maintained an altitude of 7,600 feet for 4 seconds, and then entered a continuous descent until the last radar contact 17 seconds later, at an altitude of 2,400 feet. Several witnesses observed the airplane prior to it impacting the ground. All of the witness described the airplane in a "flat spin" with the engines running prior to impact. Examination of recorded weather data revealed several areas of light-to-moderate precipitation echoes in the vicinity of the accident site. The maximum echo tops were depicted ranging from 14,000 to 25,000 feet, with tops near 17,000 feet in the immediate vicinity of the accident site. Recorded radar images depicted the airplane traveling through an area of lower echoes for approximately 5-minutes immediately prior to the accident. AIRMET Zulu was current for icing conditions from the freezing level to 22,000 feet over the route of flight and the accident site. Four PIREPs were also issued indicating light-to-moderate rime to mixed icing in the clouds from the freezing level to 16,000 feet. Cloud tops were reported from 16,000 to 17,000 feet by two aircraft. Examination of the airplane and engines revealed no pre-impact mechanical anomalies. Additionally, examination of the cockpit overhead switch panel indicated propeller de-ice, engine intake heat, windshield anti-ice, and wing de-ice were all in the 'off' position. According to the pilot's toxicology test results, pseudoephedrine and diphenhydramine was detected in the pilot's urine. Diphenhydramine was not detected in the blood. -----Original Message----- [mailto:owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of steve2 Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 9:24 AM on pilots Mitsubishis seem to be falling out of the sky like raindrops.
