A friend with a newly acquired newly restored PA 12, called me early last winter and was concerned his
Horizontal stabilizer doing some unusual shaking during climb out AND in level flight
So we started looking into possibility's to include detailed inspection of the jack screw ( that has less than 200 hrs since new), the yoke link bolts. The engine mount
bushings, changed propeller's and nothing made any difference. He was very concerned and we never were able to stop this unusual shaking He is running the new Airglas Retractable 3000 Wheel Skis, with 8:50 tires. A few days ago he removed
The skis and installed his 31" Bushwheels.
Ran it around the patch a few times and discovered that there is now: ZERO tail shake?????
It is total tied to the skis. So if anyone else has experienced anything like this?? with those skis on Cub or Cruiser it would be good to hear about it. His 12 does have 3"
Extended gear.
