  1. Ok I'll try to get some asap.
  2. At some point I uploaded the 337 into downloads, but next time I have the battery access open I'll take a picture.
  3. Probably not Skybolt.net - That looks like a model management agency. Probably not the Steen Skybolt - but they're cool. Maybe Skybolt, manufacturers of camloc? I'll take a look. Any specific ideas?
  4. I'll try to get some; not going to be great quality as it is black fabric in the baggage compartment. Basically #10 screws into the fabric is what it will show. I'll see what I can get though
  5. I have a ski tube in the baggage compartment. The cover is attached by regular screws, but it would be much easier/convenient if it could be removed with just quarter turn fasteners or something similar. What would I need to convert the screws to some other type of fastener?
  6. The key being "Inventory systems are linked." That is clearly not the case at Chief, since it took them over two weeks to let me know shipping wouldn't be for another week.
  7. Well that is part of the problem...I asked to speak to someone in charge. They said nobody was available... I said have them call me but shockingly, nobody did. I don't have Dana's number and it certainly isn't listed on their site. Customer service there was part of the problem.
  8. exactly! And I'm calling them and they keep saying they'll call back with an update, but of course never do...
  9. " Hilarious!
  10. On the plus side, Spruce had it in stock for basically same price. Chief had a black friday thing, so they were a bit cheaper, but certainly wasn't worth the headache.
  11. Another bad experience with Chief, but I'm the one who tried to buy from them again, despite bad experiences in the past...So my fault. Tried to buy an oxygen filling station. Never got a shipping date or anything. Called customer service four times over two weeks, kept being told they would contact the manufacturer to see when it would ship, but I never heard back from Chief about the response. Finally spoke to a supervisor, and she had a poor attitude, refused to transfer to her manager, etc. Had to cancel the order because I needed it by Christmas. Very disappointing experience but I think it solidified me not using Chief anymore.
  12. That's what I use, works amazing.
  13. Lasar has stainless steel ones...$55 for a pair for the main gear, $45 for the nose.
  14. My 84’ K has Vertically articulated seats, I thought it was pretty standard on them. Maybe it’s an upgrade. If so I like my plane even more now
  15. That looks amazing!!
  16. Sportys has a “do not tow” banner for the nose wheel
  17. I flew this 201 quite a bit about twenty years ago when it was a rental at West Valley Flying club in Palo Alto. It was pretty nice then, no big wing dents at the time
  18. That looks great! The one design with the classic Mooney bird on a diagonal on the tail was very creative/interesting too. I’m not a fan of that bird style but maybe with the modern one that could be a neat scheme
  19. Like what? So I take it I should not look for a used bottle?
  20. It's a built in tank in the tail and I don't have a picture of it.
  21. I want to get a refill system for my built-in oxygen. I am looking into leasing a 200 cubic foot tank with 2200 psi. How many refills would I get with the single tank? Would this work for filling my airplane tank? http://www.chiefaircraft.com/ao-fa-54-72-g.html I think I would also need to get a Scott adapter? Thanks in advance!
  22. Pictures or it didn’t happen...
  23. Seems perfectly reasonable. Free doughnuts are never ridiculous!
  24. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ktvb.com/amp/article/news/local/idaho/plane-crash-american-falls-idaho-pilot-dog-killed/277-823c39f0-40db-44c8-a90d-765bce2bcff0 Well that’s tragic...
