I've noticed a slight shimmy on landings. So I ordered a complete Torque scissor link rebuild kit from General Aviation and a Shimmy Damper Kit.

My question is what is best method to remove old bushings part 53 AA-401-3 out of the Body and Collar Assembly? I've noticed guys using tap/bolt method to remove bushings from parts that are removable from aircraft... But not the Collar Assembly!!!

Do you have a recommended method? Thanks for your help.

805-215-2982

wow, a close call. glad all worked out. I am looking at a number of planes. great variances in equipment and pricing. will keep you posted.

Keep a watch for your 1/2 refund. It should appear pretty soon. Sorry to hear about Connie.

John,
Can you send me James Bradley's contact information. He is close and I am familiar with the Dothan area.

Thanks...I'm not real good at it either.

John, have I been too hard on the guys running this forum?

Hi John

It was great meeting you at the FNL Fly-In. I enjoyed talking with you about UA football and dual magnetos. Safe flying and hope to see you soon. As I mentioned I will be down in AL on Sept 30 for the Ole Miss game. Whoo-Hoo and Roll Tide, behind the Buckeyes of course. Brett

Hi John,

Sorry, I am still finding my way around this site and just now found your message.

I have made several trips to Rucker over the past few years to talk to pilots about flight profiles. Interesting place!

I don't currently own an aircraft. I had a 172 for 8 years and sold it 3 years ago. I'm looking for something that can actually carry 4 people and am interested in a 114 commander. (my other choice would be a 182, but I am leaning toward the commander)

I joined this group to read what others think about "Commander ownership" and how easy/difficult it may be to get parts.

Thanks for the introduction!

Hey John, I might be flying down that way "0J6" on Sat. A Bonanza guy is bringing his plane up here for work and I am taking him home. Thought I might stop by if your at the airport.

Hi John, I checked my oxygen level at 8500' after two hours-it was 92-93 percent!
Was I surprised! Ann's was 95, but she spends 30-40 minutes a day on her treadmill.
It was great to see you and Connie again, and Ann enjoyed meeting everyone! I hope we can get together again soon.

John, were you up to Savannah today?

I don't know how it works either but I accepted your friends request.

Yes
The plane was totaled after the nose gear locked up full left.
It has been rough. I have looked at several Commandes but i have been very picky
The right one will come along
Thank you for your comments
