If it is just the gas to get out of the Idaho back country or some other remote place with strips but no gas look at the turtle pak 5 gallon jerry bladers.

There is a very good video and tribute to Mr. Leeward. In the slow motion part of the video you can see a piece of the tail come off. http://www.youtube.com/watch It is titled Jimmy Leewards last flight

The previous owner flew the A/C for @ 15 hrs on the engine after it had been run an average of just a few minutes a month in 31 years. The compression was in the high 60ties when I bought it. I used a pint of Avblend for the 4 hr flight home, drained the oil which was fresh when we started but looke...

Thank you I'll take any and all suggestions.

I have a C-145 that has 2000hrs TT and 600 SMOH. The engine had 100 hrs. in the last 31 years and the cylinder walls are rusty and pitted. Does any one have any suggestions on what type or brand of cylinder is the best replacement?

What is the hand dance on a go-around, is that let go of the flap handle grab the throttle all before the flaps go to zero or do you have a friction lock on your flap handle?

You might want to check with airrepair.com, I just changed mine. I got one from Kevin Mayes 606 434 4065

The way I'm doing mine is the visor arm comes off, make a small incision in the front side of the headliner and slip it over the bracket arm you will have to reenforce the slit in the fabric to keep it from fraying. It is a much easier job with the headliner off, but you should be able to get yours ...

I just put a set of Rosen visors in to see how they would fit, I didn't install the headliner yet so I can get some pictures posted tonight on how they are installed on a 52 B model

I heard about an aux tank that is a copy of the javelin system it is a new manufacture out of southern Ca. and sold by EDM aircraft. Has anyone seen one, bought one, or done biz with EDM. Thanks

Try Kevin Mayes 606 434 4065 he parts out 170s. I have used him a couple of times.

You might want to try Atlee Dodge stc SA02231ak should get you going in the right direction.

Does any one know where to get the seals that go between the window frame and the door? It is for a 52 B model. Thanks

If the airplane is in Belgrade Mt. Call 406 388 1351 (Arlins Aircraft Service) ask for Arlin he has been on the airport since the mid 50's. He would be able to tell you if it is there.

Thanks for the reply bought the 199-62 and a sharpie.
