Hopefully I can see him next week or so. I thought I had one of the prototypes here, but I guess it's not. I should be able to find that one next week also. The extenders normally are just some plate material that bolts to the landing gear holes and lowers the axles by about 3". Most people started using them to run the larger Whirlwind prop and still have an adequate amount of ground clearance.

I think I have the extenders, but I will double check. Any chance you can provide a photo (sorry to be a pest)? Thanks for the follow up on the adapter plate, anything would help. Regards, Anthony.

The dates are April 3-5. We are planning the RPA Formation Ground School for Friday evening, flying/training on Saturday and Sunday... We have a few local guys that want to get "carded". We will have 2 FAST Checkpilots, 2 more leads, and at least a few more carded wingman. If anyone is interested in joining us, please drop me a line? I tried to post the event to the RPA website 10 days ago, and realized today that it never made it there... We would love to have some more RPA folks join us, even if just for a day of fun... -- Jeff Linebaugh jefflinebaugh@gmail.com 901 606-6735 cell ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message yak-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Yak-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/yak-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/yak-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
