exM20K Posted April 24, 2021 Report Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) Many thanks to Eric at Oasis for fixing my rigging. I gained back at least 4 KTAS, which came very cheap as compared to the usual 1 AMU / Knot scale for speed mods. A well-meaning but untutored A&P took it upon himself to re-rig the flaps and ailerons visually and without my permission or knowledge. Net result was 12 knots below book, rudder trim 3/4 scale to the left and ailerons trying to pick up heavy right wing. Eric jumped on it with confidence. Fixed the drooped left and right flaps (4* droop on the left!) and then the ailerons. Ran the gear up to check that the doors were closing well and firmly, and away we went for a quick hands-off test. Passed first time. Very happy with Oasis. -Dan Edited April 24, 2021 by exM20K 4

StevenL757 Posted April 25, 2021 Report Posted April 25, 2021 The other “half” of Oasis is Paul Beck...fuel tank sealant master. If anyone is looking for that service, he’s your guy. Currently, he’s booked through April 2022. Yes, April 2022.
