Thanks ouy guys G

Is there a best location to locate the transdonder antenna. Is it legal to mount it on one of the circular covers on the belly of the plane. There are a couple of locations that seem well clear of control cables etc. What do you think Thanks G

Thanks you guys, G

I have strobes on each wing tip and on the rudder. Do I also need an anti-collision light on the back or belly of the fuselage?????????Thanks Gary

I will try the gentle adjustment of the cowl before final tightening of the screws and forego anything involving amputation, george did the washers show up by the way....Gary (Simatos)

sorry slow to get back to ya. My cousin is an ame and float plane guy and we put in solid bushing so I wouldn't expect any droop in the mounts tho as they say I have been wrong before. One joker here on the field suggested i enlarge the mounting holes on the airfilter frane so I could position it a ...

I have a good 1/4 inch space all the way around but the 2 lower corners are in fact touching the cowl. I would expect with the rocking of normal engine operation this would hurt the air filter frame or air box. Any ideas how to free it up???????G

Fitting the cowl I am finding the air filter frame is quite tight against the cowl opening. How much clearance do I need so I don't damage the cowl or air filter holder frame. I would expect the engine needs to have room to rock a little within the cowl. What do you think G

I was asking about the high shear bolts and washer for the vert stab and you folks advised me where to get new ones. Well they have arrived and some of you had indicated you needed some washers. Well I got 20 to spare so let me know and I will send them on Thanks again for all your help G

just had the conversation with the General Aviation Hardware folks. Same as you guys so have lots of extra washers if anyone needs. Thanks again for your help Gary

I am just reviewing notes from Bel and Jim . You note the dash numbers are different . two bolts with dash 6 but Jim I think you list dash 9and Bella, dash 11. Also You list 5 (five of the longer ones) I see spots for only 2 so where do the other 3 go?? Gonna order these up if you might be able to c...

Guys thanks That answers all my questions Cheers Gary

Wondering about bolts to fasten aft vert stab to empenage. In the IPC figure 13 shows attachment of "Fitting rear spar lower " with bolt NAS145-14s and NAS145-18. These are like big allen key bolts with hex socket in heads. Are these special and/or could regular AN bolts also be used? Than...

Guys before you all go nuts on each other let me say sorry for my horrible spelling of "FUEL" thanks and carry on G

You guys will yell at me because i don't have the part number but mabe you can advise anyway. The fitting that mates the feul line to the carb purchased with the appropriate part number at great expense I realize now is leaking at the carb. It looks to me like a pipe thread going into the carb. Seem...
