I came across this Air Camper for sale on Barnstormers.com. Over the years a few people have asked about possibility of installing the Scout landing gear on an Air Camper. This is the first Air Camper I have seen with this type of gear. I guess this answers the question of will it work. There are a couple of more pictures in the add on Barnstormers.comChris TracySacramento, CaWebsite at http://www.Westcoastpiet.com ________________________________________________________________________________

Given the way the gear fittings look, and the steps on the side, this looks like it may be a steel tube fuselage.Gene ----- Original Message -----

I had to do a w/b recently for DAR on Cozy. He wanted 1) a sample envelope showing most forward and rear empty CG, 2) within this envelope a sample loading showing max. allowable weight, and min. allowable weight. 3) a sample calculation showing typical loadings with arms for each movable thing ie. pilot, passengers, baggage, fuel. The DAR wanted to see it kinda like you'd see a typical write-up in a C-172 or any storebought spamcan manual.Gordon ----- Original Message -----

It may not be a steel tube fuselage. NX18235 has a similar fixed step on a wood fuselage. It is a steel tube mounted through two blocks of wood which are glued to the top of the lower longerons.Greg C.> >> Note that it must be a steel tube fuselage given the style of fixed tube> step it wears.>> michael silvius>>> ----- Original Message -----
