18x5.5 Tubes

Michael,

You posted on FB about tubes...I don't have a FB account, so I'll reply here. I lost one 18x5.5 tube spontaneously last year.

The 18x5.5 isn't as rare as you've heard. It's on TBMs, King...

I thought I'd throw up the old cargo pak installation docs, since several asked over the years.

Those G models are light! I can't figure out how they're lighter than the Es and Fs, when they have the same fuselage as a P-model.

Well, it took almost a year - but I had my plane accurately weighed. As expected, I gained 60+ lbs of useful load and the c.g. moved back almost two inches. I'm still trying to figure out why the...

In both copies of the parts manuals I have (P492-12 and P607-12) the drawing for the throttle body is missing. There are no missing pages, but the parts index refers me to a drawing number that...

Do you have a cargo pod lying around? You think you might put it on someday, but not yet? You can't sell it yet?

I'll lease it from you! I have a big trip coming up where I'd REALLY like a pod. I'll...

This is a Owl/Horton kit, not a Robertson.

The flaps are down, but the ailerons are straight AND there are no telltale exposed nuts for the bellcranks under the outer wings.

Belt, suspenders and ladder? 3 artificial horizons? I'd go with just two (your choice for backup - elec or vacuum) and use a stratus/ipad as your 3rd if you REALLY want a 3rd.

There are many things not listed in the TCDS that you are not allowed to remove on some airplanes, but are allowed to remove on others - doors, for example.

There can also be things listed in a TCDS...

Instead of the GFC700, get an STEC55x and a GAD43e. Those will be STC'ed. I think it'll get you 90% of what you want.

I don't think that's a milirole. I see inspection plates, not hardpoints.

That's an FT337G, not an FTB337G. If you're looking at the right side, you can tell because it doesn't have the windows in...

Nope, haven't found one yet. Also, all of the Reims 337s got pulled back under the A6CE type certificate - except for the FTB337G. It's on a EASA SAS. It's not going to be easy.

I checked.

Owen won't sell the hard point STC for you to install elsewhere. You take your plane to him, and he'll install them for you. Then you'll need to get field approval for each item you want...

I'm not sure that the probe & gauge are separable. There's a bimetallic spring inside. If someone were to remove the cover and overload the spring in one direction, the temperature indicator would...

Nice!

The upper one has an "unsafe" light and the lower has a hydraulic pump light.

How are those connected? I'd guess your unsafe light would be extinguished if you're on the ground.

My impression is that you're right - the autopilot will be the hardest thing to do on field approval. I haven't heard of one being done that way for any plane.
