The Port of Seattle got 4 or 5 new Cargo Cranes built and installed several years
ago (1998?) and they are the largest Cargo Cranes on the west coast I believe.
I remember it was a big deal.
Their origin?
China.
I think they have some Chinese lifting gear on them? :)
No problems that I am aware of so far, I know they keep them fairly busy.
You would think that they would do their home work if they were spending that kind
of money, and they had that much at stake. Shut a major Port down for a day
and see what happens. Talk about a choke hold.
The bottom line is if you go with the lowest bidder that's what you get.
If you expect better quality you will have to pay for it.

My fuel system is fairly complicated, due to the fact that I have all the f
uel in the centersection (I like a large gravity head to provide fuel press
ure), and I have a fuel pickup in each corner of the tank (my old Cessna 14
0 taught me that with one pickup in the tank, low fuel levels and strange a
ngles of attack could produce periods of sphincter-clinch). So I have four
lines all feeding down to the rear cockpit, where they merge into one line
that goes into the fuel shutoff valve. From there the fuel flows forward
to the gascolator mounted on the firewall, at the low point of the system.
Here is my fuel shutoff valve, located on the back of the front seat bulkh
ead below the rear instrument panel:

Hi John,
I ended up using a valve I bought on ebay, but was planning to use the ball
valve ACS sells for $23 until I found the very same valve (same manufactur
er, same part number) at Home Depot for about $6. As far as I know it shou
ld work just fine.
I positioned mine so the shutoff is in the rear cockpit, just under the ins
trument panel. Kept me from having to run another flexible cable to the fi
rewall.

Thanks Jack for the info regarding jury strut attachment at the spar. I ma
de brackets similar to yours and Mike C's. Another topic: Mike mentined t
o me that you tested ball valves for fuel shut off use. I'm installing a n
ose tank, so I am selecting my shut off valve, actuating cable, and gascola
tor. Do you have comments on these components? I am especially interested
in learning about the controls for the valve. Do I have to have a locking
type control for fuel? It looks like a lot of builders are using the T ha
ndle control cable from Aircraft Spruce. Do you know if the control has to
be lockable or positive position or can it simply be an actuating lever? H
ave you found that a hardware store bress ball valve is conparable to the m
ini ACS ball valve?
So any thoughts you have or can remember are appreciated. ball valves, con
troll types to actuate the valve and gascolators.
Thanks again.

John,
Here is what I did at the spar. I made a fitting from =BE" x =BE" 6061-T6
aluminum angle from Home Depot. At the lift strut I did exactly like Don E
mch, except I cut the end of the eyebolt off flush with the lift strut and
welded it too. Here is a picture:

Thanks Don, however I am curious about the attachment at the spar, not at t

Can you remind me what shade of green you painted that as well? I like it.

Hi John,
There are several ways to do it. This was my method. I welded a tube in t
o the strut and put an eye bolt in. Check out the fly in the picture too!
Huh.

We just put him on a Southwest flight back to work. he said the rig cost 27 million

had to be consistant two times.
I myself would simply like to keep the jobs here.

I sure am glad that board police did not discover that the content has little to
do with forged cranks and less to do with building Pietenpol aeroplanes. Not
unless those too are being imported from China and sold as would be American
aircraft. Does that have any political, social or economic substance that needs
to be avoided?

That's just the problem. If it's substance, most of us don't mind it. If
