Currently they have one PC of still useful vintage but do a lot of work on Macs of which the NEWEST is a G4 upgraded to OS9. They'd really benefit from upgrading from stuff that's 10+ years old to something Intel-based capable of running a recent version of OSX. Thus, if any of you find yourselves replacing a 3-5 year old Mac and wondering what to do with the old you could make a tax-deductable donation of it to the museum and the folks there would be very appreciative. Thanks!

Basically, it has to refuel very soon after takeoff. Once up to speed and the aircraft sufficiently warmed up and the metal expanded, it quits leaking...

Wow that's a great looking one Gary. ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 09:39:28 PM PST US From: "WILLIAM KELLY" Subject: Re: TeamGrumman-List: Instrument panel Hey, this looks great. Kind of reminds me of my panel. The only thing I would have done differently is swap the positions of the nav head and JPI for a better scan when shooting an approach in the clouds. I like the style of the yokes too. The pebbled look sort of hints of spots on a real Cheetah's coat. I see the Mitchell gauges. That reminds me, don't know if I ever mentioned it or not, but since you changed the connector style on my fuel pressure tranducer I've never had a questionable needle fluctuation again. I will save this pic to my Grumman favorites.

Corl wanted his indicators there. He's an airline pilot also . Did you notice the circuit breakers? There are additional locations, pre-drilled for more if needed. His panel also has idiot lights for low voltage and low vacuum. I'm glad to hear the fuel pressure problem was that spade connector. Easy fix. -----Original Message----- From: WILLIAM KELLY Sent: Fri, Feb 19, 2010 9:38 pm Subject: Re: TeamGrumman-List: Instrument panel Hey, this looks great. Kind of reminds me of my panel.
