Gilberti

[Greg Bockelman]

In the process of selling my airplane, I got a question from a guy that wants to do the Harer/Gilberti conversion to his BC12-65. Can you guys tell me where I can send this guy to get information?

Charles or maybe Bob Harer,

Jersey Shore PA 17740
PH#570-398-1364
He holds the STC and you can purchase the STC and a complete set of drawings from him. I talked to him a couple of times and he is easy to get a hold of and willing to answer any questions.

Bob is in a nursing home Alzheimer unit. His wife will direct calls to me. I have contacted the wife & the NY ACO and will acquire the STC soon. I have a list of three customers now. e-mail me direct to go onto list thanks [email protected] I can answer questions too , I have one set of drawings , etc.. here at the airport.

Re: Gilberti

Forrest, if you want my help in bringing this STC forward into the 21st century, in terms of a proper installation and instruction manual, resolving the technical conflicts, etc I will be glad to take part. I'm willing to help create an illustrated manual for installers of this STC.

Re: Gilberti

I have an STC from Harer but have not done the work yet. I will no doubt need help as well..will keep in touch.

Sorry to hear about Bob Harer. We talked last fall and he seemed like a very kind and helpful person.

Re: Gilberti

Way back then it was very straight forward to convert the BC12D to the "equivalent" of a Model 19. I have addressed the issues of today quite well in the 1 st. Taylorcraft Foundation newsletter.

READ the comments there. There are a few points of clarification that need changed in the present STC ; however, I intend to solve many problems by having the hard to find parts fabricated here by PMA. thank you Bill and others, lets see how it develops.
