Re: Fin Rib Kits Jim R. I have 11 rivets in the 2nd row and you are having 12 installed. Why the 12th one? If it is required can the 12th rivet be installed and accomplish what you are having done on the new stuff?

Re: Fin Rib Kits Dan -Here are some more photos of my 1976 Commander tail and hopefully they are better than the others I posted. I took these yesterday. You can see the top row is below the black rubber same as yours. My 2nd row is mostly in the blue stripe.

Re: Fin Rib Kits Here a couple of pictures. You have to zoom in to see the rivets. There are 11 rivets as Jim mentioned in his post in the 2nd row. (Sorry about the view but I think you can see where the rivets are). The first row is just below the black rubber and the second row is at the top...

Re: Fin Rib Kits Jim thanks for the summary and the info. Mine has the double row of rivets - thank goodness.

Re: 2011 Sedona Fly-In News I was going to go to Sedona. Been there before and it is a great place. Got my insurance requirements out of the way last year at 57AZ and it is not far from Sedona. Has a very good restaurant on the field. However our Airport Appreciation Day is 9/24. I might be...

Re: Vagar end of the month? I wish I could fly my airplane over the skies of England, France and Germany. That would be a great trip. I have looked at the route from Iceland to England but ---dont think that will happen. I envy you folks over there that can fly in some very significant...

Re: New Shimmy Dampners My understanding is they are very common and I had mine changed but I do not remember where they came from. I will look for the invoice and if I can find I will post the info. I also had the bushings replaced in the nose pin and my AP/IA had no trouble getting them.

Re: Alaska Trip The last sentence should read - you don't need night currency.... Frank

Re: Alaska Trip Steve, What is your schedule like? It is really worth considering. If I get to Anchorage I would like to go to the end of the haul road. The only place I know of that has fuel is Wiseman and I am not sure I like the idea of the gravel stuff of there. I don't know if a...

If anyone is planning an Alaska trip I would like to know. I have read with interest the folks that flew to Alaska and I wish I had owned my Commander at that time as I would have gone. Frank

Re: 2010 cog fly-in location My comment about the Hurricane Season is not that it might or could occur during or on those dates. The problem is after a Hurrican hits - it could weeks or months before any businesses are back up and running. And the only reason I bring it up is because I am a...

Re: The conversation I have never used the following but it is something that once I get really frustrated with a controller I might use. This was given to me by a friend. Am I up here because you are down there? Or, are you down there because I am up here? If things are gonna get snippy...
