Subject: | Service Bulletin 199 |
Anyone have a copy of the weight and moment tables handy? Email, or even
a fax to Col-East would be fine. We've got the text of the bulletin in
our book of bulletins, but not the table itself. No one go to too much
trouble as Twin Commander is trying to figure out exactly what a 500A
converted to a B is supposed to be doing.
Unless its been superceded, the best and latest information I can find
is that 500B, 500S and 500U drivers should have updated their weight and
moment allowables with the tables published in 1984 Service Bulletin
199.

G'day Folks,
Updating my recent email; the aircraft destroyed was 500S VH-YJB ex N50BA c/
n 3299.
Those of us attending the 2006 TCFG Flyin will remember this Shrike as the
one displayed by Bruce Byerly.
Many thanks to those folks who have passed on their very best to Steve's
family.
Cheers
Russell

Hi Guys,
My usual pre Fly-In plea, before booking my flights!
If anyone will be heading back home via Oklahoma City after the Fly-In and
has a seat to spare, I will really appreciate being dumped out at Wiley Pos
t (PWA).
I will, of course, expect to make a suitable contribution towards carrying
an extra 200lb of live cargo, plus the inevitable baggage.
No, not "her indoors", but the suitcase variety.
There's quite a good restaurant at the base of the Tower there, so I'll als
o treat the other occupants to lunch.
No, not the other restaurant occupants, but the others in the Commander ;-)
Very Best Regards,
Barry

Russell,
I want to thank you for bringing us the news about Steve Nott.
You delivered it well, my friend, and the eulogy, including his history of
contributions to the Commander world were well stated.
I think we all stand in admiration of our brothers in Australia; for being
so far away, so many innovations and even warnings (the need for ADs and SB
s) are so often generated by the attention to detail to goes along with you
r robust spirit in Oz.
To lose someone of Steve Nott's caliber is tragic for the industry and it s
ounds like you lost a friend and mentor and I imagine that has to haunt you
.
Carry on -- and if you happen to be in a position to tell his family -- let
them know that he's missed 'round the world.

Hi Mason,
I think I'm all fixed up now! John Towner will be attending from Kansas
City, no doubt with his son Andrew. John has kindly offered to drop me
off on his way back home, being virtually right on his course.
I haven't booked my flights yet, but will probably arrive either at
Austin, or San Antonio on 18th or 19th September. I'll also arrange to
rent a car and drive to Fredericksburg. I will then have a day or two to
get accustomed to rather hotter weather than we're used to over here and
take the opportunity to have a look round at a few airfields before the
attendees start arriving on the 20th.
So, I'll look forward to seeing you there!
Very Best Regards,
Barry

We are sorry for your loss. Hope to meet all you folks at the fly in... Just
hung a new engine on the right side, and actually going to fly it in about
20 min... We'll see from there how it goes...
