Concorde sealed valve regulated batteries

Yes I just install two of them in a Baron B55 at the owners request. Concorde has not followed through yet like Gill and has not gotten approval for installation in many aircraft. I had to go to the trouble of getting a field approval for their installation last week. Gill's should be approved for t...

Vernier Controls

Since I'm putting a Lyc with C/S prop the STC came with a vernier prop control cable. I don't think its a good idea to mix the different control cables, so I am putting in vernier control cables on the mixture, prop and throttle with the 337 for the Lyc STC. Or If the FAA wants another 337 with the ...

Name & Number

Hello, I began working on my firewall and finishing up on the instrument panel this week on my 52 170B. I added a vertical D/G. The plane already had a new attitude gyro, so I ran out of panel room.

Fixed Pitch Props

Del Airs STC allows two fixed pitch props. A McCauley 1A170/EFA 76''max 74'' min and a Sensenich 76EM8S5 76'' max no reduction permitted, using a Lyc O-360. But I have heard of some larger dia props being used up north. Lance

337's

Just a quick note as to what I've heard lately. On the topic of 337's and getting the history on your plane. It appears that the FAA has not always been forwarding the 337's or have been slow and keeping them in their local files. I have always tried to get my copy stamped and signed, but they don't...

Lyc O-360A1A

I just purchased a first time runout Lyc O360 A1A, C/S prop and engine mount from a C-175. I all ready have the STC from Harry Dellicker - Del Air 1-559-784-9440. I looked for 5 months and saw some good deals on the internet. I am tracking the crated boxs across the country. The owner bought the C17...
