Parigoris" In the past week, 2 people, 1 of which was our DAR after looking at the now bonded in torque tube bushings asked why we are using bushings instead of ball bearings? Has anyone installed ball bearings on the torque tube? Has anyone ever had the bushings wear and need replacement? Thx.

Most of these TAS-from-GPS aids spring from the desire to determine whether the IAS is suffering from errors of varous sorts, in particular, installation-specific ones like position error.
