Anyone up for a DOTH on Wednesday?
I am only just back from my travels and have not been keeping up with
where DOTH'ers have been to recently so I would like to leave the choice
of venue to someone else.

Hi! Richard Welcome back !
I would have enjoyed meeting up except G-PTAG nose wheel fell off on
landing back from Shobdon Sunday evening ....Prop write off and nose leg
went "pot holing" and was ripped off, so major reworks needed, sorry!
No injuries though inspite of a "greaser" so we must be thankful !
Just on passing I suggest everyone checks the integrity of the roll pin
which secures the nose wheel pivot shaft to the wheel styrup since when
you adjust the "shimmy" friction you are tightening against a damn roll
pin only.!!!!!!
You will need to completely dismantle the nose wheel castor assembly to
do an adequate check whereupon you just may find that the grease
retaining "o" ring isn't working allowing grease to make for easy
pivoting needing more tension applied hence the roll pin shears!
Read this and ignore it at your peril IMHO.
Regards
Bob H G-PTAG

Hi Richard,
I am meeting Paddy for a doth at Old Sarum today if you can make it; but
perhaps a bit too far from Blackpool?
I'll be in touch later.
Best wishes,
William

Hi Bob
Bad luck and just when the weather was improving! Makes a mono wheel sound
almost safe.

Peter,
As they say watch out since there's those that have and those that will!
At least I didn't have to remember to put the gear down !
.....and those that will if they haven't inspected/improved the
castoring pivot by replacing the roll pin with a solid bolt at least !
