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.

I am looking for data on how they mounted it Bill Sent via DROID on Verizon Wireless -----Original message----- From: Barry Collman Sent: Fri, Mar 18, 2011 21:26:56 GMT+00:00 Subject: RE: Commander-List: RL-26D (680E) For Sale 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 From: owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of yourtcfg@aol.com Sent: 18 March 2011 17:02 Subject: Re: Commander-List: RL-26D (680E) For Sale 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 -----Original Message----- From: Russell Legg Sent: Fri, Mar 18, 2011 3:52 am Subject: Commander-List: RL-26D (680E) For Sale Hi Jimbob, You should get on down and have a look at this one for sale...located at Lebanon, Oregon.
