Hi TEAM:

You know it is funny, funny curious.  After asking about the engraving and 
what may be engraved on the gas cap I received many useful replies.  ALL from 
the TEAM, but not ONE from the guy doing the engraving.  Another thought I had

on engraving.
I'm pretty sure the cap is coated for protection from rust, (at least on the 
AA-5) more than likely with zinc (galvanized) coating.  Engraving would remove

the coating.  Yup, you should paint the cap after it is engraved, but that is 
not as good as galvanizing and how deep is the engraving?  Could the paint 
fill back in the engraving?  Oh!  What about the FAA requirement of contrasting

colors?  I guess you could do the engraved area with a contrasting color?

Naw, Placards work, I'll stick with placards.  What I would like is a tie 
point inside the filler neck to hook a chain, so I don't lose the cap.

Hi Guys -

We're looking for a partner (or partners) in the Los Angeles area for our Grumman
Tiger. It's a great plane, but we just haven't been able to fly it as often
as it deserves. Right now it's based at SMO (Santa Monica) but we'd consider
relocating to WHP (Whiteman), VNY (Van Nuys), HHR (Hawthorne) or other nearby
airport.

Specs:

-- 1500 hours, engine & airframe
-- fresh annual (showed great engine compression)
-- all logs available
-- no damage history
-- IFR equipped
-- IK2000 flight & engine monitor (installed with 337 Field Approval)
-- exterior 6-7
-- interior 8-9
-- adjustable cowl flaps
-- 4-place intercom

We're looking for partners based on a total value of $59,000.

Interested or know someone else who might be? Please contact Ralph or Helene at
2pilots@comcast.net or call us at 310-745-1130.
