(Graham Brighton) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 05:58:27 PM PST US Subject: KIS-List: Can you identify this TR-1 nose gear? From: "jeffbudner" Hi all, I'm in the midst of a pre-buy inspection for a TR-1, and have a couple of questions, that hopefully you can help me answer: 1. Posted below are pics of the nose gear assembly, from these pics can you determine if this is an original model nose gear or a more hardened version? 2. Regarding the flaps, the left flap extends down 1.5" lower than the right. Is this an adjustment issue or could there be some intentional purpose to it? My apology is I've posted too many pics, I wasn't sure which pics are relevant to question 1 above.

I dont have an answer for you about the TR-1 but your photos look like the gear on the TR-4. The original gear for the TR-4 was linked to rudder pedals and provided nose wheel steering. Those were replaced early on with free castering version.

Hi Jeff, I fly a TR1 .. Your Nose Gear Leg appears to the Good ... and appears to be the most recent Hendricks version . I know of 4 versions . First version was round ( approx 1 inch Dia) formed/shaped .. not strong ... next 2 versions were 'Airfoil Tube' construction .. and lastly the strongest Round larger Diameter unit u photo'd . Regarding Flap extension being 1 and a Half inch different ... that would alarm me ... a suggest investigate why this is so . !!?? ( they should be rigged to deploy uniformly together ... and so fly straight and true and controllable ... departure from 'in unison' Flap Deployment ... introduces controllability issues/concerns ) Luv my TR1 .. good luck, Graham Kit #80 -------------------------------------------------- From: "jeffbudner" Sent: Sunday, September 20, 2020 10:58 AM Subject: KIS-List: Can you identify this TR-1 nose gear? > > Hi all, I'm in the midst of a pre-buy inspection for a TR-1, and have a > couple of questions, that hopefully you can help me answer: > > 1.
