HRM Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 Does the name Lewis H. Height ring a bell for anyone? He would have been a contemporary of Al Mooney. Quote
carusoam Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 Harley, This guy? https://www.google.com/patents/US1774032 1929 patent for some similar looking foldable landing gear. The crank handle looks a hair more complex than the beloved J-Bar of 1965. Best regards, -a- Quote

justin Posted August 12, 2016 Report Posted August 12, 2016 Yes, I know Lewis H. Height, Sr. He is my grandfather and I heard many stories about Al Mooney, Mooney Aircraft, the landing gear, Alexander Aircraft, the Eagle Rock, the OX5 Club, etc. 4 Quote
