Cooling
Herb is correct about AD modification. The cooling air from the ports on side of fuselage cools your avionics, And on left side there should be a small ‘y’ that takes air from that cooling line and...

Same
I discovered that not too long ago in the O2 manual myself! I would be interested in a drawing to fabricate as well. Maybe Don Neiser has them?

Popped breaker
I would trouble shoot with the easiest first.

Thanks Jim,
Interesting to see your W&B from Cessna from 1969. Mine is about 5 pages, and it is similar in the sense - but it also includes the whole equipment list for all 1966 aircraft, then and...

Windows
Dave,
