Do you have a lathe?
Maybe make a shim that slides over the shaft and fills the gap between the shaft and the puller arms. Inside diameter .005 larger than the shaft, and the outside diameter just...

I watched Bob Barrows and his wife depart in his Patrol. I was shocked at what his desired take off line was, and how quickly it was airborne and climbing.
STOL comps are cool, but lets all admit...
Plane lived in heated hangar for winter.
I am very glad the Cessna Factory and NTSB are digging deep into this.
Mike, the flutter story is interesting, I had not heard about that.
Service...

As noted, skis not damaged prior to impact: Page 3 of 5
By a Maule!!:-P
Frankly, so many great planes out there! Find the one that fits MOST of your missions the best.
Piper? Pacer was designed by BD Maule... look at them compared to the M-4.
It seems a reasonable comparison, but some things I think should be stipulated and maybe add a few more tests later.
First, if you do have an engine out situation and need to glide- FEATHER THE...
Comparing two airplanes by time may not work so well, as some planes accelerate quicker, and others lift off slower... the important figure is length of run, and distance to climb. Everything else is...
Lots of Alaska is accessible on strait floats, but until you get into the north/interior you can not buy fuel on fresh water, and many communities don't have fuel at any water unless you run boat...
Later ones had aluminum flaps and ailerons.
I would avoid ones with the metalized coating (forgot the actual name) on the tubes, and would be very Leary of an old frame that has been around the...
I was shown to just uses a strip of aluminum on the underside, no angle needed. Works great.
I had an early 180, light, 250hp Skyways engine, Horton and no VGs. I made a few landings with full load at 500', but ground had to be soft. serious pucker factor. I flew it out at gross from 670' of...
If you would start before 10 pm we might feel bad for you, but we know that as a married man you must take care of the cats, dogs and goats before you can go to work:-P:-):-):-)
Wait until you...
Prices have changed but many of the questions I had when we started our hangar are the ones you are considering.
First thing I will say though, is that it is far easier to install everything NOW,...
Last night I remembered a conversation I had years back as we were fighting the compass in a cub, no matter what it would read north due to the location and metal around it. The mechanic I was good...
We don't all have the disposable cash Mr. Ford invested into his cub to make it light...
So some ideas and methods that work well. My budget dictates a method of financial need-

Congratulations!
keep us posted and ask Ernie if it is safe!
You would be in heaven with skis!!
I don't disagree that my situation was asking more of the tires than they can do... which is why I believe that they are useless for off airport use.
If you have high enough pressure to keep them...
I wonder how much that will add to the price?:wink:
PA-12, 9 PSI, Still lots of stiff sidewall, both tube cores in same landing without skidding the tires.
Never use them again without a blimp over them.
Wise words.
As I have aged, not all with grace, I have discovered that often the method in which takes the least amount of physical effort is usually the easiest on equipment and your body.

Free would not be worth the install.

Wait until JB gets a couple of goats...
Oh, Pete, Wheel 185's have been advertised with a "2" starting the price recently.
