The International Cessna 170 Association

I had the BAS Tail Pull Handles after observing a field installation at Petit Jean fly in 2010.

Love the handles, if you own a C170 why do you not have them installed?

My current dilemma is I cannot locate any paper work involving my installation. The A P IA who did a very good job of the install did NOT remain in the business.

I don't know if STC paper work was even filed.

What are the steps needed to correct the paper trail?

I have a new and reputable AP / IA.

You can order your airplane’s file from the FAA which contains all the 337s which were submitted. George has pointed out that long ago not all 337s were required to be sent from local offices to FAA in OKC. My file came on a CD which I loaded onto my computer as well as iPad which is always with me in the airplane.

Since you did the handles in more recent times the paperwork should have been forwarded.

If the FAA doesn't show the STC paperwork ever being filed you'll need to contact BAS. Give them you're registration and serial number and they'll send you another copy of the STC.

In addition, sometimes paperwork is listed under a different registration number (because reg. nos. occasionally change) but the serial number should be sufficient. BAS is very good about supplying fresh paperwork reflecting the new registration number if yours has changed and you can provide the serial number.
