I ask for pictures, but have not received anything. -
I think some airplanes with only Right side handles, and I have seen them welded at 2 different angles. Typically pre war is up and post war is down.Leave a comment:

Let me know when you are going to the woods to dance a round. I want to make sure I'm no where near there....Leave a comment:

It is a large copper crush gasket that is part of the head gasket assembly.Leave a comment:

You need to tackle the whole system starting in the rear of the airplane. Anything that puts drag on the system will keep the front pulley from being able to drive the cable.Leave a comment:

In his case, if it has original instrumentation the tach does not record time. It would be one of the Stewart Warner 6" instrument clusters....Leave a comment:

I am talking open. It doesn't really make any difference, because the distance from the firewall to the prop flange doesn't change between open and closed cowls.Leave a comment:

The prop flange for the Lycoming on the mount is about 2" shorter than the continental. So the cowlings can be similar, but not the same. I modified a BL open cowl to fit a Continental conversion. I used the same nose bowl, but made new rear sections....Leave a comment:

Dad's middle name is Tom, and his first name is Lowell. My first name is Tom, with a middle name of David. The problem is friends and family never called dad by his first name. I have the unofficial title of Jr.

Yes. At least my 41 BL-65 had 15 rib wings, with matching serial number tags attached to the spars. I suspect when they started building 15 rib wings for the B*12 series airplanes, that they all got 15 rib wings....Leave a comment:

I had 29815. 41 is a good year to have. You should have 15 rib wings with built up ribs. I consider this to be one of the most desirable models. My BL with the Lycoming was sub 700 pounds. I think you could add 1 wing tank, do the 85 conversion with gross weight up to 1280. I think you could keep the...Leave a comment:

It probably depends more on the configuration of your airplane when it was new. The trainers had the interior and exterior painted the same color, and the tubing matched. If it had a finished interior I suspect the tubing was black or a dark brown. Stay away from high gloss finishes if at all possi...Leave a comment:

When we put dad's airplane together we had to move it about 50 miles. We did it in 2 or 3 trips with a flat bed trailer and a van. I can't remember if we brought both wings in one trip. It was a full day with 6 plus hours of driving. Everything arrived with no damage from moving.Leave a comment:
