Just curious Rich, how did you find the wear in the main gear trunnion bushings? Was it noticable when you took the weight off the mains or ??

Every time I jack the A/C I check the amount of play in the MLG.
Wear has been increasing.
It was also used by Hoover many years ago along with a couple other wild rides.
It is time to take a look at some areas not seen for many years.

Thanks Rich, that's about what I figured...

Rich,

You're teasing me more than the girl on the Thoughts of Midnite nose art. Not cool.

Oooo... exciting!

Maybe I can announce it later today.
Even the name of this aircraft type strikes fear in the opponents.
We have never operated anything like this.

Thanks for the updates Rich, and looking forward to learning about this new acquisition! Personally, I can't think of any more fearful name than "Butcher-Bird", but from hints thus far, it doesn't appear to be so.

Rich did say "strikes" fear....sounds like a Lightning to me!
