cliffy Posted May 13 Report Posted May 13 Has anyone ever seen a weight limit published for the radio shelf aft of the cabin in the hell hole? I've been searching and if there is one I have missed it somewhere. Its probably hiding in plain sight an I have my eyes closed ! :-) Quote

cliffy Posted May 14 Author Report Posted May 14 A Photon Torpedo cannon! Its a loose end of missing information that I want to find. Have seen many radios mounted back there but nowhere can I find the shelf load limit Inquiring minds want to know Quote
N201MKTurbo Posted May 14 Report Posted May 14 I’ve seen some late models with way more avionics installed on that shelf than I’ve ever seen in a C model. Quote

I have never talked with him The brain trust around here hasn't ever seen the limits either? 60 years in the field and no one knows the limit number? As mentioned I've seen many different installations on those shelves but never gave thought to a weight limit before now. Quote

Thanks. 1 Quote
cliffy Posted May 14 Author Report Posted May 14 Questions asked Questions answered Tribal knowledge says 40 pounds on the shelf As to the push/pull rods - that's way out in the future for engineering to look at BUT big thanks to Frank for getting back to me so quickly Great support response!!!! Thanks for the lead also !! 7 Quote
