Correction, The AD simply states how it must be inspected and if anything goes wrong, It must be replaced and cannot be repaired. Also that type of ELT can no longer be installed in certified aircraft. It is the AmeriKing 450 and 451. Perhaps some cheap ones will come on the market.

Turns out raw (not boiled) linseed oil is an oxygen getter. Maybe they knew something back then. When one of those old birds turns up in a barn moth eaten, the frames are often in surprisingly good shape. When my '92 honda civic rusted at the back of the rear wheel wells (as they all did due to a drainage issue for condensation inside) I welded new metal in there and sprayed raw linseed oil over the area. It never rusted again despite driving in Canadian winters till the car was 14yrs old and had 300,000km on it when I tossed it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message pietenpol-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Pietenpol-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/pietenpol-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/pietenpol-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
