Re: N96234 - Kept in the Family

Finally remembered to take some more pictures. First three are of the cabin air vent closed and open, along with where the pull knob is for it. The last two are of closer up of the holes in the starboard wing root and the thermometer in the cabin on the other side where the holes are.

I forgot to get pictures of the window sliders but will tomorrow.

I also discovered through piles of paperwork that I have an 85hp STC in the file with all the drawings. Looks like it was never swapped over but was STC purchased. I didn't see any other STC's of significance other than a Scott 3200 tail wheel which it has currently and mogas STC.

Hi Stuart,

The vent door is most likely a Cessna door. If the PN is still there on the inside primer it will be in this format, 0xxxxxx-xxx. Typical single engine series start with a 0.

Nice idea, it looks better than the bubble twisties from Spruce.

Tcraft vents from the factory were in the upper, aft most corners of the front windshield or the door windows pop out or slide depending on model.

How goes it on getting your ticket?

Good luck. Mark.

It's been a little slower than I had hoped do to issues with my schedule as well as my CFI's. I think I should be there early Oct. I sure am having a lot of fun learning though.

Well after many delays with Work, weather, etc... I passed my check ride today. I'm pretty excited to have that under my belt and not have to rent a 150 anymore. As my 82yo CFI says, now I can start flying a real airplane (tailwheel). Looking forward to logging a lot of hours in the T-craft this spring and summer.
