Looking to possibly form a partnership in the Chicagoland area. I would ideally be looking for one or two partners to go in on a IV-P. Anyone interested that...
Does anyone have a source for the quick disconnect tie down rings? I had a set when I bought my 320 but have since lost them. They had a locking pin and were...
I got some off Ebay, 1/4" by 1" T handle. Cost about $5 each. Or Summit Racing sells them. ... From: blake hermel To: lancair@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday,...
I'm finally in the process of acquiring a Lancair 360, as I have been planning for some time. But, can anybody tell me who can do a pre-buy inspection in...
Morgan, You may want to re-think that. The guys from Redmond have seen many more 360's then the average bear. They know when it's done right and when somebody...
Morgan, I agree with Glenn. Use the best resource you have. Instead of paying the expenses of someone coming down, I would go there. A friend used to flip...
Hello, It took me a while to retrieve the information about his issue, since my Lancair (PH-DBO) is flying since 1998. Reading your message though brought back...
Rick, I see you are looking for a Lancair. I will not be able to make it to Sun-N-Fun this year, but I want to show you the IV-P that I have for sale. Thanks...
After some 12 years of duty the hydraulic cylinders of the main gear start to leak. Does anybody know where I can get new cylinders or replacement parts for...
Hi Dave- I'm located in Suffolk, VA (USA east coast) and have been flying my 320 for twelve years. Aerotek cylinders were supplied with my kit in 1989 and...
http://www.aerocraftparts.com usually has the rebuild kits. Call and ask for Michele. If not, all the rubber parts are off the shelf from McMaster Carr. You'll...
I have only 70 hours on my Lancair 360 and have rebuilt one door actuator and have leaks in the other main gear ones. Please post info on Bob Wolstenholm's...
Hey guys I continue to have landing gear problems and was wondering if you could shed some light on them. The problems are sporadic, but consistent. For...
How is your voltage level when in the air? Amps with everything lit up in flight? On Apr 10, 2010, at 7:51 PM, blake hermel <bhermel@...> wrote: Hey...
As we put more electronics in our birds this becomes more of an issue. A new alternator fixed the issue for me along with a new odyssey battery. Before I...
The problem with the gear not going down while in flight is the fluid pressure on the lo side getting to high from heat, this opens the lo sensor with the gear...
I also think the pressure switches are causing the problem. "Powerwise" it is true that the powerpack draws high amps, but this never has been a problem in my...
Thank you all for the info I received. My experience with the Aerotek cylinders is the same. They have been "weeping" since new, but the problem was manageble...
Does anyone have any pictures of a way to mount a landing light on the nose strut of a 320/360? I bought the XEVision kit and am trying to figure out how to...
For what it's worth, with the newer power pack it should NEVER take more than 6 seconds for full extension or retraction in a 235/320/360. Since replacement...
Dave- I spoke with Michelle at Lancair today regarding the gear and door hydraulic cylinders. She told me that there were quality problems with the Aerotek...
Bill, et al I have nothing against Wolstenholm cylinders, but there is more to the story than I have read so far. Some food for thought: 1. First run...
I (for the larger part) agree with Chris. Hydraulik systems are always prone to dirt and debris. That's the reason professional systems do have fine mesh...
I have a set of the newer innner gear door cylinders from a 2008 Legacy. We removed the inner gear doors so I have all the hardware that goes with them. I dont...
Chris- Aerotek cylinders were furnished with my 1989 kit. Like Dave, I also experienced 'weeping' cylinders after only one year in service and it can be...
What did you use to attach the dataplate to your Lancair? Suggestions on crankcase venting welcome. Not having anything to compare to - check out this video...
Jeff, My doorcylinders are working OK. It concerns the main gear retract cylinders. Nonetheless thanks for your offer! Chris, My remarks about machining...
