Kingsley,
Look on the diagram for the tail wheel installation Chapter 23M-7 figure
10. There are some who have expressed interest in reducing the tail
wheel from the 9.25 inches to say 7 inches to get a higher deck angle.
Do not do this as the geometry of the tail wheel is changed
significantly. Stick with the manual or buy and test your own tail
wheel and set the geometry with this new gear to allow the rudder to
drive the tail wheel, prevent excess castor and proper rudder to
tailwheel geometry so when the tail wheel turns, it does not jam or
cause the tail wheel cable to pull the rudder uncommanded...
Regards,
Bud

Bud,
You said:
"Should the tail wheel spring arm be installed about 2 inches higher
than the manual described, the tail wheel geometry will actually drive
the rudder and flick the tail wheel around when passing 60 degrees
causing the tail wheel to restrict rudder movement and a loss of control
will occur."
Sorry but I'm not sure exactly what you mean . . . . are you saying
that if the rear most part of the tailwheel spring is higher (rear of
fuselage lower) or rear most part of the tailwheel sping is lower (rear
of fuselage higher) ?
Thanks

| Subject: | Re: Heat shields - carbs |
Here are some pictures showing my heat shield cup installation. I used loop-type
cushioned aluminum alloy clamps (WDG) to fasten the cups to the engine mount.
To do this I had to build small aluminum brackets. To the one on the left side
carb a rather thick piece of aluminum is bolted between the bracket and the
clamp because the carb on the left side is further backward. See the attached
pictures. More details can be provided on request.

Hi! Europe / Europa fliers who are intending a visit to Wickenby Wings and
Wheels on Saturday /Sunday( you won't be turned away Friday even!) here's
the approach and departure procedures.
There are notams out for the airshow "No fly" periods. All we want now is
fair weather and some intrepid aviators too.
Regards to all
Bob Harrison
I'm looking at G-PTAG being grounded due to unacceptable flakes of ferrous
metal on the magnetic plug which weren't there at last oil change! Lady
Luck deals some shit hands out to me lately !
However no doubt I will have plenty to keep me busy in "the Crew ".
