David, when I bought my landing gear from Van's, the gear legs, nose wheel
fork, gear leg fairing, nosewheel pant and brackets, nose wheel, tire and
tube came to about $900.00
Hope this helps

OK folks I need some help. It seems that since I
reworked my cowl and air box, my 0320-A2B doesn't want
to run right. everything is normal until I rotate. Max
rpm in climb at 100 mph is only 2150 instead of 2400.
I did a full power runup with the tail tied down and
got 2350 static at full throttle, same as it's always
been! I drained the auto fuel and filled it with 100LL
which seemed to help but it is still not running
right. Anyone have any info on the airscoop inlet size
for this engine, pictures of the airbox to match the
Madden cowl? And what about the Aerocarb the Sonex
people are selling http://www.aeroconversions.com
(Aerocarb)?

Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.

Drain the fuel out of the lower back side of the carb. I know it sounds to
simple but I had this problem and found out this was it.

Hello,
I posted a message last evening looking for help on inventorying a set of
original plans I bought used from a dying member of my EAA Chapter. He
needs the money. I need the plans but I don't want to pay if they are not a
full set. Can anyone help confirm that I have a full set? Does anyone
care?

If you call AS&S and let them know your plans number they will send you
the newest drawings in cad for about $20. (I think that is what I paid
2-3 years ago)

Steve,
I remember you from Brodhead. Do they give the W-8 or W-10? I am looking
to build a W-8. I have the plan number written right on the plan and
probably by Steve Wittman himself. I also have a copy of Experimenter from
about 1956 or so that I picked up at Oshkosh for 5 bucks in the used and
unwanted rack at the EAA Library. It had a tailwind on the cover. After I
took it home, a buddy of mine was looking at it and pointed out that the
address on the other side of the cover was to Steve Wittman! I have
Wittman's copy of the Experimenter with his ship on it!
Chris
