A place where restoration project-type threads can go to avoid falling off the main page in the WIX hangar. Feel free to start threads on Restoration projects and/or warbird maintenance here. Named in memoriam for Gary Austin, a good friend of the site and known as RetroAviation here. He will be sorely missed.

Posted this in the hangar before. Got lots of looks, but no replies.
Do any of you know of a STC approved Rocker box oil recovery valve/system for the C-45?

I haven't been able to find an STC for either P&W R-985 Series, Hawker Beechcraft 18, D-18, 3NM, C-45 series airplanes.
I've seen airplanes with them, but doubtful if they are legal installations.

the valves I used to sell are legal installs with a field approval and a previously approved 337 as aproved data. There are a number of T-6s and C-45s that had the valves that Carl Schmieder made.
If I can find a shop to make them for me that are affordable, I will try to get some done.

Alden Engineering has a Rocker Oil Retrieval System that I have installed on a couple of T-6s under a STC. Titled RORS IIRC.
I don't know if anything is advertised in NATA Skylines magazine.
