Add the ATS Brake Bleeder Tank - this is so quick to bleed your brakes; and make some different connections, you can make it do other things like top up your hydraulic system quickly. I recently...

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?

Pumps

Hi Jim,
I just looked at the Maintenance Manual, and while the manual does not show the schematic for the Turbo 337E, it does show that on the other Turbo models, the aux pump is after the selector...

Popped breaker

I would trouble shoot with the easiest first.

Disconnect the wires at both ends and check the resistance of the wire. Given that the trip seems to be time bound, it is probably not a short to...

Thanks for the follow-up on this issue - sure is nice to have some closure when people discover something like this. That main gear actuator (aka transmission) is a bugger to get out - but looks...

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...

weight

Jim,
Look closely at the original factor W&B - many times the aircraft was "computed" and not "actual" weight - that could explain the turbo system being listed separate. See snap shot of my...

Thanks Herb,
