Sorry to be the first to tell you Oscar, the Federal Aviation

removed the agency's dual mandate of regulating safety and promoting
industry development. After that the FAA was to promote safety only!.

Here's yet another opportunity to gently and patiently educate one of our
public servants and employees (FAA person). As frustrating as it is to
encounter ignorance, error, confusion, or misinformation in the agency that
is supposed to promote and regulate civil aviation, there is much more to be
gained by getting the correct information right out of the regulations or
advisory circulars and then discussing it with our employees in the FAA.
But I'll admit, sometimes you just want to whack 'em upside the head.

Because he was an ignorant busybody? Around here, if it comes to
their attention, the police insist that any off-field incident (such
as a safe, off-field landing) involving an aircraft be reported to the
FAA. We once had a local sheriff crash a family reunion party, where
a family member was hopping his family rides from their pasture,
because they weren't using an 'official' airport.

There was a thread a few months ago regarding Gooseneck bending dies which I thought
would be a great addition to my own shop. So, in my travels, I came across
a rather long Gooseneck die, and I picked it up for a rather pricey sum.
If you want a short gooseneck, I'm cutting the long piece into a series of short
pieces, so you can bend the U shaped fittings - along with any other fittings
- without having to jury rig something special.
The cost per linear inch of the material is $7.50, and it will fit into a $5.00
shipping box.
I'm not trying to make $$ here, just help out anyone wanting such a die, at a reasonable
cost. Let me know if you're interested, and I'll cut a 3", 4", or whatever
length you need. For my purposes, I'm going with a 4" bending setup
like the one Curt Merdan showed in his pics.

On a personal note: I once landed at our local non-controlled and under-used airport
after a week of heavy rain and turned a few feet too soon onto a taxi way
with the result that the left wheel mired in the mud. I gave the J-3 full and
rapid throttle to pull through the mud, but the engine stalled and quit. With
the momentary, but short power surge, and the one wheel stuck in the mud, the
plane nosed over in very slow motion. I climbed out into ankle deep mud, pulled
the tail down and managed somehow to pull the plane out of the mud.
By the time I got the plane back to the hangar, the sheriff showed up and asked
if I were the one who "crashed"! Being the only airplane at the airport, and
standing there with mud up to my ankles with only one shoe and hosing the mud
off the plane; I had to admit that I was the "crashed plane"!
He wanted a complete report on the crash because he had already called the FFA
to report it! Some motorist, driving by the airport, had reported the "crash".
The sheriff's protocol was the immediately call the FFA prior to even responding
to the crash site!
It took only six months and many letters and phone calls to get the "incident"
straightened out. As they say, the FFA is not happy until you are unhappy.

Good eye, Oscar. Both the rudder and elevator gaps are nearly 7/8". I taped
them closed for a few flights, there was small improvement in elevator
authority and nothing noticeable in rudder so the tapes went into the
garbage bin. The ailerons are attached with piano hinges and the short
spaces between the hinges are sealed with tape; they are very effective
resulting in little stick movement.

Wow, what a beauty! Excellent workmanship, and the whole visual scheme is
very tasteful and reminiscent of the times. Great work, and great photos.
But is it just me, or is the gap between rudder and vertical stabilizer
quite large? Not at all being critical, just commenting.
