We inadvertantly lost some airframe parts in the shuffle of cleaning up after the hurricane event "Rita" while waiting on the engine from the overhaul shop. To be brief, The most sought after item is a 90 degree elbow aluminum cast intake connecting to the fuel controller on the right engine. This part has a large accordian shaped rubber hose that connects to the air filter box attached to the other end. This part only applies to a 500-A Commander, and it IS an airframe part. The part number in question is 3610274-502. Specific to a Continental 470 or 520 engine. Other parts that are missing are the entire baffle assy Intercylinder between 1&3, 2&4, 3&5, and 4&6, as well as the supports for the fuel injection lines that connect to these baffle assy's on top of the engine. These parts (baffles) are not specific to the right engine only, as they are the same part no's for both sides. The other items are the two control rods (mixture & throttle) connecting to the fuel controller from the belcranks. The description in the parts book are "Rod & End Assy". Part no's for these are 6900074-579 and 529 respectively. If ANYONE out there that knows of a 500A fresh to be parted out  that we might contact, it would be greatly appreciated. If anyone interested in seeing pics of the parts from the other engine for comparison, I will send them e-mail in short order. We have been calling and looking for these parts for weeks going on a month now. Waiting to fire up the "new" engine on these parts... A   O   G...  I will post if anyone finds these parts or part for us.

Try White Industries if they are still in business. They had a 500A at one

time, now that I think about it that was over 15 years ago, but you never

know.

Try  copters8(at)cs.com. They have two commanders that they cut the wings 

off and sent from the islands to Tenn. I  tried to get some control 

yokes from them, but thiers were worse than mine. I don't know  what 

model AC they are.They were pretty much corroded  so they did'nt try to 

save the wings.



What does everyone do for new control yokes??

Roland:



What style control yokes are you looking for? I have a pair here, they came 

off of a 500B.
