Subject: | RL-26D (680E) For Sale |
Hi Bill,
Yes, it did have the SLAR equipment.
I have photos of it with both the SLAR and that rather bulbous nose
radome while it was with the US Army.
I cannot remember, but I might have seen some Drawings at Twin Commander
re the SLAR equipment.
Exactly how it was mounted might therefore be shown.
Might be worth sending an email to Geoffrey Pence or Bill Ball at Twin
Commander.
Best Regards,
Barry

Hi JimBob,
I think that, because of the special radome on the RL-26D Commanders,
the nosewheel had to be moved back slightly.
In fact, an extract from our Model 680 Fact File records:
=9CThe radar equipment in the nose resulted in the movement of the
nose gear aft from station -27.00 to -7.25 and certain revisions were
made in the retracting mechanism and supporting structure. Also, the
landing lights were relocated into the wings.=9D
Best Regards,
Barry

HI RUSSELL..how is life??? I have heard about this airplane for many
years, never seen it. The nose landing gear is different some how,
retracts forward or something. I always wondered if there was an FAA
paperwork for the mod?? jb
