sdJasdssddcksdsd,sd

I just noticed thss that  you  are from Kansas.   I live in Garden City 

and am  going to Sheblyville to pick up my new LS-1 next  week.  I looked

at the  removible stick option but  instead decided to have  move the

stick as far forward  as possible (good for  a fat old man.) My wife  and

I are   presently in our  winter  home in Port Isabel, TX, which is just 

accross the bay from the South Padre island resort  area. I am a

relatively new pilot with just 600 hours pic.  Just sold by Beech Sierra

due to medical issues.s.  Tell me more about your plane, maybe we can get

together sometime.

 If we are not too far along on my build, I'd be interested in this option.

 Hope you had a good Christmas vacation.



 Best Regards,

 Group,



 This is in regards to Bill's mention about a removable stick option. I

 thought I would start another post about it.

 How many people would like to see this? It is certainly something that our

 welding shop could make, it would be easy to retrofit and could be an

 option

 at initial purchase of a kit.



 If you are building a kit and had not flown or touched the sticks yet as

 far

 as construction goes, we could take it in exchange for credit towards the

 other stick. Not sure of a cost but give me a week and I will.

 Those who are flying would have to buy new, but I can find out how much to

 change your sticks, but I think a new one will be cheaper after shipping

 it

 back and forth and cutting it up an such.



 This will be initially to the Kit owners only. I will have to do

 supplemental testing to the control sticks for the SLSAs, but that should

 not take to long.



 Please let me know thru the List or my email and if we have got more than

 1

 or 2 people who want it will make it happen.

Nick: My kit is being shipped the last week of February. I am definitely interested in purchasing this option.  My Glasair had this and it would have been impossible to get under the panel without it. GreenLandings is handling the kit.  Thanks for your follow up.  Harry  Weber

I have a removable stick and it's simple - with a little help from Arion.  

  

 I have a second stick base with the upper stick cut off - courtesy of Nick  when there was a used one available. To switch, I remove the aileron bolt,  the big nut that holds the fitting on and disconnect the wiring. Reassemble with  the spare hub and I'm ready to go. This operation takes about 3 to 4 minutes and  requires only two sizes of wrenches..   

  

 Can Arion get the stick manufacturer to produce just the base with the  aileron bell cranks? Or alternately the base with only a 2" stick base attached  - make the stick base a different diameter so a stick will slip over or  into the stub.

  

 Sorry I don't have a pix, but will take one and post it if anybody needs a  visual.
