Re: [Aus-soaring] Pawnee Struts

[Ian McPhee]

Try Kevin Howard (if he has not retired) at Field air Ballarat, or Cobulture Gliding Club as thay have FAW pawnee in bits or Neil Dunn Kingaroy has a mate Jason who has Pawnees or there is a bloke west of Brisbane area with a heap of Pawnee parts as I know Darling downs got a Pawnee from him (Bob Keen) and Michael Shirley (Keepit) got a Pawnee from him which is getting a GM LS1 V8 auto engine right now.  Daffyd Llwelyn (southdown Aero Clifton Qld) or Dave Sharples (Brisbane) may be worth contacting.   If all those fail then go to USA - caution it is a bib box for the airfreight and shop around - I got the best price from Fed-ex but DHl are competitive in USA as they took over Airborne.  Bight the bullet and get a new strutt and redo the cluster if you wish and forget the xray.  Actually TALK to Daffyd Llwellyn as he was indoubt about our exays and gave us another 12 months and then declared they were right -  Do you have the struts with the rivet where the rust stuff has been added - is it issue 6 of the AD - can not remember.  There are a heap of LAMES signed out the AD when it was not done properly regretfully   GOOD LUCK Ian McPhee Box 657 Byron Bay  NSW  2481  Australia Tel +61(0)2 66847642 mob +61(0)428847642 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.mrsoaring.com     ----- Original Message ----- From: Don Woodward To: aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net Sent: Friday, June 10, 2005 12:14 PM Subject: [Aus-soaring] Pawnee Struts G’day everyone,   One of our Pawnee tow planes at Beverley has just had its struts x-rayed and one of them failed the test. Before I order a new one from the USA I thought it was worth a long shot to ask if anyone has one resting in the corner of a hanger somewhere. If anyone knows of one I’d be glad to hear from you.   Thanks Don Woodward President/Tugmaster Beverley Soaring Society 0419 809 463 _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring Internal Virus Database is out-of-date.
