Hanger folks: I got this back very promptly from ACK with details, and yes it is a minor alteration: --------------------- The FAA has determined that installation or replacement of an ELT in an aircraft weighing 12,500 lbs or less in a non pressurized area is a minor mod and no form 337 is required...

Is there any special approvals that need to be gotten to make the installation of an ACK E004 406 ELT installation in a C-170B legal?

Appreciate very much your help. We just finished mounting the ELT in the plane (replacing the old 121.5 unit), and hooking up the antenna. Our next step today is running the "phone" wire (the Audio Alert Cable P/N E-04.10.3) up to the Remote Control Panel Indicator (RCPI), which we mounted...

I need a drawing for the bushings, bolts and washers, for the engine mount to firewall, for my Avcon STC SA 806 CE conversion for the 0-360-A1A . We need the actual drawing so we know what the bolt lengths should be for the firewall attach point, which I suspect are shown in drawing 17013 - I see th...

Given the concern expressed by the post of Apr 23, 2013, toward Mr Anderson of Landing Works, does anyone in TIC170A have any viable alternatives to going to them for gear repair/restoration?

Does anyone have any experience/advice on how to apply Boeingshield T-9 anti-corrosion coating to the inside of the wings, fuselage, etc.? I've heard that if you use too much and it seeps out along panel junctions.

Can anyone recommend the best place to buy Cleveland wheels and brakes (kit 199-46)? Cheif, Aircraft Spruce ????

I've got a 1952 C-170B, and on the rudder bellcrank, it has an enlarged hole on the top of where the centerline bolt fits through. (see atached image, red arrow).
