A cougar is an older woman who….

My 1984 J spends her nights with a 1946 TCraft. The TCraft is clearly a cougar (even though I’ve seen no Grumman markings).  It’s been going on for almost a year.  I didn’t think it would last but now I’m not sure.

Anyway, my TCraft is in need of a good old fashion directional Gyro and a vertical speed indicator. Does anybody have one of these or both they would like to sell me at a reasonable price. Please PM me.

I think I gave away my new VSI and new Altimeter to a neighbor, but I’ll look.

Sorry I did, just have a manifold pressure and old altimeter and a tach somewhere, but it’s flt timer is set for 2,000 RPM

My J sleeps with a 46 C-140, I looked long and hard for a T-cart back in the day but couldn’t find one that didn't need major work.

Do you have this book? They are disappearing like everything else, but can sometimes be found

No. But I’ll hunt for it total. Thanks for sharing.

When searching for pre-flown avionics…

Consider seeing what @Alan Fox has available…

If you want TaylorCraft specific stuff… there must be a TCSpace somewhere….

No, THIS is a Cougar.   This plane (with different paint scheme) used to be based on N71 and was available for rental.  I have about 32 hours in it.  Nice airplanes.

Visiting Henry Weber can be dangerous….

you come in at ground level with a Mooney…. And things can get 2X more expensive there…! 

Lots of twins in that neighborhood…

Cougar was an interesting plane.  Hit the market as a Light Light Twin in the days when the Duchess and Seminole rolled out.  Mainly for the training market.

O-320 engines.  But the airplane was designed to be released in increasing performance versions, with a planned cabin stretch and eventually a version to compete in the Baron/310/Aztec market.  So a very roomy cabin,

But Gulfstream only wanted the jets, and killed the piston line.

It would be interested to get one and upgrade to IO-360s.  Or even TSIO-360s.
