    A bill of sale that includes language releasing her from any and all liability is sufficient.

    If you have the sling seat attach the back bottom of seat as far back as you can (if you haven't already).  A couple of inches can make a difference.

    Update....I saw on a previous post that a Kitfox 4 lexan turtle deck can be trimmed to fit the Avid Mark 4 / Model C.  Can anyone clarify that's the case?
     
    Thanks

  12. lv2plyguitar added a post in a topic Matco Axles   

    Thanks for all the advice.  I measured the axles and they are 3/4 exactly.  I think pounding out the old ones created the problem and Hysol per Tjay may be the solution.

     A bird like that would open up Alaska to all kinds of possibilities.  Helicopter plane combo.  When they get around 15,000 Ill order one.  LOL.  Never happen.

  14. lv2plyguitar added a post in a topic Matco Axles   

    Its definitely 3/4".  When I removed the original AVID axle I had to pound it out a little.  The Matco axle slides in very easy. It would be a very micro thin sleeve if one was available.  I was told if it had any space at all it would damage the receiving end.

    Matco Axles
    Good Afternoon,
    I purchased 3/4" axles from Matco.  The axle's are slightly smaller than the original AVID axles which created a little slop where the axles fit to landing gear.  Have any of you experienced this and how did you get it tight again.  Is there a standard sleeve I can order?
    Thanks

    I installed a stainless firewall and bought fire blanket at the aircraft store and installed on cockpit side.  Looks great.  I got the stainless sheet metal from a local sheet metal fab shop.

    Willow Valley Alaska
    Me and Randy took off Sunday afternoon and did some mountain flying.  Dead calm air.  I was tracking Randy's trail and you can see him ahead of me.  Video is somewhat boring but still fun to make.

    LOL.  I have tried to talk him into letting me borrow one for the weekend but since my AVID could fit in his baggage compartment he doesn't feel I am qualified. LOL
