YEA,!! Ned, thanks for posting that.
A little bit of research is now needed....
What carbs are allowed for the AA5, AA5A and AA5B?
If there is an overlap and it fits the AA5... Yea, that may just solve the
problem I'm seeing.
Thanks for the post Ned.

Hi Bruce,
Well, I have a real interesting story about picking up a plane in Virginia and
flying it back to California.
One of my customers brought a Grumman Traveler project to me a couple of weeks
ago. Last Monday, I told him that it would be a better use of him money to find
a Tiger project than to put the Traveler back together.
On Tuesday, I found a great candidate in Lynchburg Virginia. On Wednesday, my customer
and I decided to fly (commercial) to VA and look at the plane. If it's
as advertised, we'd fly it home.
We left Thursday night, got to Lynchburg Friday morning, and checked out the plane.
I had to do a quick and dirty fix on the engine baffle seals before we left
or the engine would have overheated too easily. By 2pm, we were headed west.
Our first stop was in Mt Carmel, IL some 3 hrs and 45 minutes later. Four hours
and 25 minutes later, we landed in Lawrence, Kansas. We pushed 10-20 knot
winds to Illinois and winds as high as 50 knots across Kansas. We landed in Lawrence
with 6 gallons of fuel. It was a long day . . . . on almost no sleep.
We spent the night at the house a friend of my customer who just happened to live
in Topeka. The next morning, we fired up the Tiger and prepared for take-off.
Unfortunately, it failed a mag check. It took about an hour and 4 new spark
plugs to fix it.
My customer and another friend of his HAD planned on driving to Oshkosh, leaving
on Friday morning. His friend, instead, left Friday on his own. The plan was
for us to fly partially back to California and drop off my customer at an airport
along I80 and wait for his friend. So, we flew 3 hrs and 25 minutes to Sidney,
Nebraska and I dropped him off.
>From there on, it was just the Rockies and the Sierras between me and home flying
in an unknown plane. The flight to Salt Lake City took another 3 hrs and 50
minutes. Lotsa wind to be pushed.
The stop in SLC was quick and by 7:00p Saturday, I was taking off on my last leg.
The sun was setting as I crossed the Ruby range of mountains near Elko, NV.
I stayed at 12,500 feet to keep from hitting any mountains for the rest of the
flight to Auburn. Just in case.
I could see the lights of Reno about 30 miles before I got there. Between Reno
and Auburn there were no ground references. I flew direct over the Sierras to
Auburn. Absolutely no lights under me. It was as though I was flying over open
ocean at night.
I started my decent into Auburn 20 miles out and landed at 10:45pm. I was home
a little after 11:00pm.
All together, I flew about 2500 miles in about 19 hours flight time.
It was a great adventure.
-----------------------------------------------
Now, for the rest of the story. The right outboard aileron bracket was broken.
I knew that before I took off. Not a big deal, really. All four access covers
on the left wing leaked fuel. Two on the right wing leaked fuel. The baffle
seals were original and so bad that I did a quick baffle seal replacement on
all but one baffle.
It's in a new home now: Beautiful Auburn, California. At least until it's airworthy.
Attached are pics inside the wing tips.

I don't think it will physically fit into a Tiger's HA-6. Call Ken at LyCon and
ask him. I'd like to know as well.
