Remove floor board

[DannyDot]

I have found an A&P, but he is a Cessna 150 and Boeing 737 expert.

I dropped a vacuum fitting under the floor board. It looks like we will need to remove at least the front part of the seat to get the floorboard up. Can anyone advise me on how to do this?

I got my floor board off. In addition to the vacuum fitting I dropped I found a 1/4 inch combination wrench, a short 3/8 inch extention, and a 3/8 inch drive 1/2 inch socket.

You might have to keep the plywood out and go with that High Techy aluminum honeycomb stuff....Just kidding, you would only save about a pound and a half if you did.....Tim

Danny, back in the good ole days on the first post-maintainence test flight, they preformed a slow roll on takeoff to recover all the tools and spare parts the maintainence operation left behind. The only problem was you usually found them about the time they zoomed by or entered your ear.
