I'm interested in several PA-12 fuselage mods that I don't think are STC'd and would like to know if anyone has gotten field approvals for any of these mods recently (since change 16, so in the last 2 years) and would share copies of those to simplify my own approvals. I'm also interested in opinions as to whether or not some of these may not be field approvable under current policy (particularly the last 3 mods).
Top deck X-brace
Oversize lift handles on both sides
Vertical post on left front side of cabin (normally installed as
part of sea plane door, but I'm not doing a sea plane door)
Metal belly in rear
Tail Brace (Empenage Beef-up) (similar to what Atlee Dodge sells)
Shoulder harness attach fittings (welded on)
Cub-type trim cable system
Replace diagonal tube over baggage with a sort of cathedral
X-brace to give more clearance for loading the baggage.
Thanks, Rod
