Folks,
The above shows a Hawker Odyssey battery described as an "aircraft battery",
they are similar to the Hawker Genesis we mostly use down here.
Seems to me that a conversion from old fashioned Gill/Concorde wet lead acid
shouldn't be too much problem.
There are a string of STCs for the more "up market" 24 volt Hawker batteries
for Commanders, 680/690, but they are probably priced similarly to the
dinosaur batteries.
CASA ( Campaign Against Sustainable Aviation) in Australia is generally
regarded as far more difficult to get along with, compared to FAA, so a 337
conversion should not represent too much of a problem, with a copy of SL 52
in hand, and the price/performance/life/zero-zilch-nil maintenance is very
attractive.
Two 12v Genesis as above will run maybe $300, two of the above around $300.
Cheers,
Bill Hamilton

HI KIDS.
There was a post about the installation of 2 12V batteries in place of the
large (very expensive) G-50C. There is an old Commander service letter
(#52), from 1962, that allows that change with only a logbook entry. I
found this gem about 2 months after I replaced the G-50C ($750.00) IN MY OWN
AIRPLANE!!!!!! Oh well. If you are a TCFG member, I will get you a copy.
The substitution of PMAed Gel Cells would not require anything beyond a log
entry. jb

Hi Folks,
Commander Aero has the necessary approval for fitting Aerodyne Winglets to
the Straight 560 model.
As recently as last year they fitted a set to a much modified Straight 560.
Visit their website or contact Gary Kromer.
Cheers
Russell

Bill, is that CASA business an activist group bent on sabotaging aviation?
Their name sounds ambiguous.
