    The May news letter is now up. Pat and Carl Beatrice fly to Mt Washington. Geoff Eather builds a Lighting and keeps all his digits. We set the Bing carby straight with an Intake airflow splitter. And more, well at least a little. Nick Otterback Arion Aircraft

    Subject: Brakes
    Luigi, We have adapted several esquals with the matco wheels and calipers, but kept the upper motoguzie master cylinders. Brake pressure seemed to be sufficient but not what the matco MCs will do. Other wise we have changed out an entire set of pedals to install the matco MCs this was a bit of project but not impossible. Let me know if you go this route the Lightning pedal assembly will work in the esqual. Thanks Nick Otterback Arion Aircraft -----Original Message----- From: owner-lightning-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-lightning-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of luigi di napoli Sent: Saturday, May 28, 2011 2:34 AM Subject: Lightning-List: Brakes I would like to change the old style Esqual brakes with a Matco system. In this project the problem arises when choosing the way to adapt the old master cylinder with a new one. I have two MC 5 with internal reservoir but I believe will be hard to sostitute the old one's with these. I believe the model MC 4 should work properly Any one on the list started with this job ? Is there any picture or scheme to copy ? The help of the list will be essential. Thanks in advance Luigi Esqual I-9854
