I have a PT-26 project I bought to rebuild for my best friend to fly. We



were actually going to not use the canopy and make it like a PT-19 so we



would have a pair to fly together. However, he was killed while checking out



in a BT-13, so I've lost interest in the restoration.



Everything is off the fuselage which is ready for cleaning ,



priming/painting etc. the vertical stabilizer is ready. The ailerons &



elevators are up through silver. The cover has been removed from the center



section for cleaning, inspection & some rebuilding. I have the wood ribs



already built for the cs. I was going to do a engine tear-down and see what



it needs. Probable needs new rings...at least a top overhaul and a good



cleaning & inspection. It came with a electric prop, but I would have gone



back to a wood prop.The canopy is apart for cleaning, painting and glass



replacement where needed. It has metal flaps and floorboards, but no heater



installation. This could be added for cold climes.I am asking $10,000.00 but



would allow $1,000.00 for transportation. You probably have a good idea of



the size trailer and truck needed for transport. I believe I have most all



the logs/paperwork. I wish the situation had been different so my friend and



I could



have had "twin" PT's to fly.

Looking for a PT19 or 26 project. Prefer a complete plane but will



consider what ever is available. I live in Pa. but am willing to travel for

UC61K Pitot

Posted: Tue Oct 26, 2010 2:53 am
by Stuart Burgess
'Hi Guys

Recently I enquired unsuccessfully as to whether any of you knew of a replacement pitot for my 61K project. I am now looking at rebuilding mine from salvaged useable parts such as the main head etc. I would probably be able to draw it up from the bits that I have which have been bent and cut up, but was wondering if anyone perhaps has a drawing of this item. I have the Fairchild club drawing CD, but the pitot does not appear on it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Stuart'

of the mast.  Although it is for the M-62 series airplane, the service bulletin
shortens the mast length for mounting at the wing tip.  The object is to reduce
mast flexing.

'Thanks George, Avlite does have the complete light assembly but I wanted just the type B casting so I could build up a type B assembly using the parts from a type A light I have on hand. I have now located a type B casting, which requires weld repair, so I can put some sweat equity into it and have the unit I need. I'm happy with that unless some member has a unit which does not require weld repair. I would be interested in it.

Thanks George, Avlite does have the complete light assembly but I wanted just the type B casting so I could build up a type B assembly using the parts from a type A light I have on hand. I have now located a type B casting, which requires weld repair, so I can put some sweat equity into it and have the unit I need. I'm happy with that unless some member has a unit which does not require weld repair. I would be interested in it.
