My first post (New Member Boris)

[Boris]

Hello everyone, My name is Boris. I am 45 years old and I live in Russia.
I have a beloved family - a wife and two sons. We live in the reserve not far from Moscow and are engaged in the development of the hotel ( http://pineriver.ru ) and the children's camp (http://civilization.t-park.camp)


To my regret, I do not know much English and therefore I use Google as a translator. So I apologize in advance if something is badly translated.
Since I do not live in the city and next to me there is a small, cozy airfield, I have long dreamed and acquired 112A (1976) serial number 472.
I know that in Russia there are at least two Commanders.



Accordingly, there is not a single service center and you have to understand everything yourself. Thank God that there is your beautiful forum where I have already learned a lot of interesting things.
My 112a is in a flying state, but it requires a lot of checks and improvements.
I really like this plane, so only about him and think about how I will fly on it along the route with the family.
But for this you need to do a lot of work.
I am very glad that I was accepted as a member of the Commander Ovners Group.

Boris, welcome to the group. You will find lots of help here - I know I have. You have a good looking plane! I am most curious about how it made its way to you.

 

[Boris]

Charlie thanks. The plane flew to Russia from Germany in 2007. In the documents I found that the plane after construction flew only in Germany. In Russia, the plane flew 250 hours. The last 3 years the plane was in the hangar and did not fly. There I saw him and wanted to buy. About 6 months preparing him for the flight to a new place. Now we are busy checking and repairing everything that is necessary for normal operation.
Commander is very rare for Russia. Very beautiful plane.

Boris, did you have Russian built airplanes to choose from and how do those compare if so?

Boris, sounds like your plane needed and found a good home. What needs to be repaired?

Welcome Boris. I am only a few serial numbers away from you, #456 with my 76 112 Commander. Yes, hopefully you can keep your plane airworthy over there. You came to the right place to research help & reccomendations.

[h=4]Dimensions[/h]

his is a training flight plane.
The price of the aircraft in good condition on average 50,000 usd.
But Commander is more suitable for my tasks.

Thanks for the kind words, I am very glad that there are so many people who have responded to my post.
Now I am studying at CESSNA 172 to get PPL. At the same time I fly with an instructor on my 112.
Now I am doing a small repair, studying the documentation for 112 and avionics (bendix kfc200)

 

[Boris]

Boris, sounds like your plane needed and found a good home. What needs to be repaired?

And there is
There are problems with the repair:
my plane is not installed FLAP TRANSMITTER ASSY (57733)
It's just not there
I discovered this when I removed the seat.
I found a site in the USA - http://apw.aero/project/14015/
In one of the photos you can see where and how this part should stand. I wrote them a letter and can't wait for an answer.

I wanted to buy from them this item assembled with fasteners. (I hope Google translate stupidly translates my messages to you).
If someone has the opportunity to sell me this item, then I will gladly buy it.

Yes. Probably stood next to the conveyor
I was then 2 years old in 1976 and I lived far away in Siberia and did not even think about airplanes.

Show me your photo of 1976

​​​​​​I am not as well preserved as my 112A

Boris, a heart felt welcome!

Borris,

Great photos.

Борис:

Добро пожаловать в группу. Как вы уже начинаете понимать, эта группа просто поражает своей готовностью помочь.

Несмотря на то, что я владел N114SE только около двух лет, у меня возникали некоторые неожиданные проблемы с ней, и каждый раз, когда что-то появлялось, и я обращал на это внимание Группы, они помогали мне найти решение.

Если у вас есть время, я мог бы также предложить вам бродить по разделу «Вешалка», где есть огромное количество общих знаний.

Снова добро пожаловать на борт !!!

Лучший,
Rik

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Boris:

Welcome to the Group. As you’re already beginning to understand, this Group is absolutely amazing in their willingness to help.

Even though I’ve only owned N114SE for about two years, I’ve had some unexpected challenges with her along the way and each time something popped up and I brought it to the attention of the Group, they helped direct me to the solution.

If you have the time, I might also suggest that you roam around the “Hanger” section where there is an absolutely overwhelming amount of shared knowledge.

Again, Welcome Aboard !!!

Best,
Rik
