Helllo!
I just bought N49AB,112TC, sn 13066. My wife Betsy and I are very excited to have this opportunity. We own a 1947 Stinson 108 that we have greatly enjoyed but it’s time for better capabilities.

We are working with the previous owner’s mechanic to address a few issues that have been discovered. One of them is the gear bell being so weak it can not be heard inflight with headset and normal noise. I remember reading a thread about connecting another bell in series with the old bell to increase the volume.
Would you have a recommendation of how to accomplish that?

Also, thank you for the operating tips that you shared in a post in this forum. I developed a checklist that combines your advice with the POH guidances. This was invaluable while I learn to effectively fly the Commander!

Thanks again!

HI Joel...new guy Dick Foreman---taking delivery of my 112TC this week and want to do your strobe upgrades....Whelan part number on-line doesn't seem to work--can you confirm and also what the tail beacon part# is. Thanks! {"data-align":"none","data-size":"full","src":"https:\/\/hoster3.commander.org\/vb\/filedata\/fetch?id=206693&d=1727350501"}

Hi Joel. I’m trying to locate the make, model and part number for my turbocharger on my 1976 112 tc. Any ideas. Thanks

Hey Joel,
My plane is in for annual right now. I asked about adding the light for the gear pump you had mentioned previously. The shop asked if there was a schematic or if I had any additional information to share about how I wanted it connected. I figured it would be on the down side of the pump since it runs in two directions. Id is something that needs FAA approval?

Thanks,

Joel, I’ve been in talks on a 79 112TCA. Think I read somewhere on here that you have helped ferry aircraft before and I might need to ferry this aircraft if I were able to make a deal to purchase. Would you be interested?

Ed Sinayi

That would be great

Good morning Joel. I have a 1976 112tc. My mechanics have misplaced a few of my engine parts. I need 10-5200 carburetor and the piece that connects the turbocharger to the carburetor. I have been checking with salvage yards, Individuals in Colorado, Idaho and Washington, and online. Any suggestions. Thanks. John Martin jdm01@att.net or 916-996-9647

I’ll try and call him today. I did not see that. I’m still trying to figure this message board out

I have been trying to get in touch with Pete about IFR training. I emailed and messaged him through here but no reply. Do you have a contact number for him?

Thanks Joel, I just paid $50 for one that was incorrect. How about $70 including shipping. My address is: John Clunan, 521 Washington Hill Road, Chocorua, NH. 03817. If you have Paypal and if you would send me your Paypal address, I will tale care of it right away. Thanks again for your assistance! John

My apologies, first post...ever. I need to figure out the signature block. I found reference in the start up manual. I found what I was looking for anyway. Thank you.

Hi Joel,
Thanks for your reply, as stated in my last post, I am new to the Commander world.
I would appreciate if you could help.

Thx,

Frank

Hey how are you? Im looking for this part ,, its the power supply to fix my strobe light , do you know where to find it

wow they are expensive , ok thank you

hello i was looking the photo you posted about the strobe and nav lights you installed on the aircraft , I have a commander 114 and Im looking for those type of led light , can you tell me where to find them please.

Hi Joel, I just thought I’d let you know that my brother has a nice enclosed trailer that he used to haul his two motorcycles down to Arizona with, and he is selling it. He lives in Sun City close to where you hangar your Commander. I don’t know if you have any need for it, but it is new (2016), and in good condition. I believe It is about 16X8 tandem axle . Disregard this if you’re not interested, but I know trailers are nice to have around, like pickup trucks.

When you replaced your door seals, did you remove the doors from the plane or just remove the old seals, clean the surface and install the new seals?

I received all the parts yesterday to make the seat rollers: Rotary Shaft 12L14 from McMaster-Carr for $3.61 each and Bearings 35JC12 from Grainger at $4.08 each for a total of $7.69 for each roller. I used a vice to press the shaft into the bearings and it worked great let me know what product you used and I will apply some to my rollers for extra precautions. I made 8 to replace all the rollers on my seats, best $80 I have ever spent, I installed them in the seats and they improved the seat travel by 100%, no more sticking and play in moving the seats.

Hi Joel, what did you replace with ? 12 volts ? I tried to click on your link of the PDF file but got a web error.

Thanks ! Tony
