Panel work

​I worked on cutting out the main panel and lower switch panel today

Started out with the pattern. Then I cut out the upper panel with a grinder

Front seat retention

The chance of the front seat sliding back and tipping backwards is possible.Steve Ruff made some mods to prevent this, some turn the slide around 180 degrees.

The bolt is the normal way this is prevented

Becker avionics

Just sent both the Becker 4201 comm and 4401 transponder for overhaul and they did a great job!

Stinson Parts for Sale

I am a Stinson 108-1 project owner and the Webmaster for the International Stinson Club. Recently an elderly gentleman liquidated his 60 years of collecting aircraft parts. There were many Stinson 108 parts that were heading to the scrapyard, but I could not let that happen. I purchased them all and crammed them into my small T-hangar with my project aircraft. (just east of Dallas Texas) My goal is to get all of the parts back out into the community and recoup my effort and time, so Im cataloging all the parts. Im open to a sale of the whole collection too, reach out to discuss.

Fuel Neck modification

 This modification to the fuel next is supposed to seal any fuel from exiting via the mounting screws. Billy Carter used to sell kits, but I think we will have to make our own now.
