(MARK J SWANEY) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 08:16:59 PM PST US Subject: Rocket-List: Rocket Tail wheel - what to use? From: Jay McIntyre Hi all, The Harmon Rocket I look after has bent the tail wheel fork and we are wondering what to replace it with as we cannot positively ID what model and P/N the darned thing is. I am not prepared to take a guess and have a new fork shipped out at great cost only to be wrong so replacement with a good proven, strong one of known P/N might be the best way forward. The aircraft has a RV4 tail wheel stinger fitted and the owner would like as big a wheel as possible for rough strip operations (although I must admit I am concerned to large a diameter might cause more rudder strikes with associated damage!) Any recommendations out there on what we should use? All thoughts gratefully and graciously considered!

From: MARK J SWANEY Jay, Visit Flyboy Accessories (http://www.flyboyaccessories.com). Theyve got a good selection and lots of extra parts that should fit the Rocket with no problems. They carry great tailwheels too. Works well on my F1 Rocket.
