'Has anybody got a 10" tailwheel in excess to requirements that they could bare to part with? Preferably a Variety Aircraft one.
My UC61K has a tailwheel of dubious origin that looks like it originated in Europe as it is of metric dimensions.
Many thanks
Frank Cox'

'Frank,
I believe I have a spare Variety wheel assy.  The only 10.00SC tires that you can get are either Chinese or Polish. They are marked with metric numbers. I do know that the axle in my wheel assy is junk. Looks very homemade.
