| Subject: | Singleton Firewall and Pushrod Rudder Drive Mods |
Folks,
I'm preparing a "Permit to Fly" application for my Mono XS and have two
questions with respect to two "Graham Singleton Mods. I've searched the
forum archives and found some 2008 correspondence, and am wondering if
there have been any developments.
Phenolic Firewall Mod: This does not seem to be a LAA Standard mod,
should I apply for it as a Repeat Mod with concommitant fee..?
XS Rudder Pushrod Mod: This appears as on the LAA list a Standard Mod
(11414) for XS Trigears, does it apply to the Mono as well..?
Regards,
Dave

Hi Dave
I too am preparing an application for a Permit to Fly for my XS Mono and
I had the same queries regarding the Singleton mods.
I asked Andy Draper for clarification and he confirmed that for the XS
Mono both are Repeat Mods. I was told to use 10410 as the mod number for
the Phenolic Firewall Mod and 10371 for the Tailwheel Steering and
Rudder Pushrod Mod.

Graham and Dave
I too am preparing an application for a Permit to Fly for my XS Mono.
Earlier this year I asked Andy Draper for clarification regarding mod
numbers and was told that for the XS Mono both mods are Repeat Mods.
For the phenolic firewall the mod number to quote is 10410 rather than
11123. On the LAA database 11123 is actually attributed to a Cozy
aircraft - Andy thought this might be because the modifications database
came into being after Graham first applied for this mod.
For the tailwheel steering/rudder pushrod mod the number to quote is
10371.
After some money had passed I got both mods approved without any
problem.

Hi Dave
I got both these mods approved as Repeat Mods. Andy Draper told me to quote
10410 in my repeat mod application for the Phenolic Firewall and 10371 for
the Tailwheel Steering/Rudder Push-rod mod.
