Thanks for your kind offer. In my part of the world, owner maintenance is pretty limited so it will be going to our maintenance organisation for the work.

I’ll try Jill if I have no luck locally ...

Anyone know where I can get hold of a set of seals for the nose oleo, please? It has deflated and won't reinflate.

Some urgency as the annual is due...... Embarassed

Richard got in touch with me fairly early on as we operate the HS-6A. We are currently in no need of an overhaul so haven’t pursued it for now, although we will probably do so in the fullness of tim ...

Perfect, thanks.

Please could someone tell me the spec of the Swagelok valves to replace the normal and emergency air valves.

Also, the snot valves.

Thanks from Lockdown, UK. Rolling Eyes

I can’t help you with the specific aircraft but contact John Warwick (The Yak Collection) at Gillespie. He owned a 50 until recently and has a lot of knowledge.

Thanks Dennis, we will do that. The aircraft is stranded away from base so we want to have parts in place if required to avoid doing multiple journeys.

I've just had mag failure (number 1) and have managed to source a replacement if necessary. I haven't had chance to diagnose yet so it may just be a short but if it does require replacement, are Huosa ...

Hi Richard,

We were always under the impression that there were only five CJs in Europe, all on the UK reg. That’s not to say there aren’t any unregistered projects anywhere but I have no knowl ...

Ha. Got mine back from annual recently and it started doing it this week. Would like to know why. I expect something needs a tighten.

Many thanks.

Hi Harv,

I’ll contact you off list.

I’m in the process of refining the W&B of our CJ6. It needs more aft ballast (of course). We have western batteries secured in the original battery box but to me it makes sense to add ballast to ...

No implication suggested. Will contact you off list.

Doug,

Are you able to supply the final filters separately?

Certainly does. Many thanks.

Thanks, Dennis. Have I misunderstood or are you saying the rear flap selector is the same as the front gear selector?

Thanks, I thought that was the case. We have one available on our field as we need it in a hurry so we'll stick that on and get the other refurbed.
