Reposting this message from John DeRosa from Friday night that did not go out. thanks to John for printing new checklists. Don
“Checklists have been printed, laminated, and ready for installation. Might install them tomorrow if it isn’t pouring rain.
Sincerely, John DeRosa”If the top is fiberglass which I believe it is, I use Star Brite Marine Polish with PTEF. It’s made for fiberglass boats and does a good job of keeping mold and mildew off. I believe it’s available at Walmart for about $14 a bottle. I use it on my trailer.
The C-182 owners manual has been scanned and is now available in pdf format for download. You will find it in the SSI Files/Docs under C-182 category. All tow pilots should review the manual. Please note that many of the speeds (ie. stall etc) do not apply since the C-182 has the Horton Stol Kit installed on it.
Hello Ed,
Glad to hear that your recovery is
going well. We look forward to your visit at the field.Don Grillo
Good idea Denny, I did about 15 tows on Saturday and a few on Sunday and I set the trim at about 4° nose up and just left it there. I never had to touch the trim wheel So I never came close to releasing the rope in flight. That seemed to work well too. But I think something needs to be done as you mentioned.
