----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]---- Hi group
I'm also a new owner, although I've been lurking/learning for a while. Just went up for my insurance checkout with a CFI who was unfortunately not coupe-specific knowledgeable. By the way, he LOVED the plane. A few questions. 1. Has anyone developed or did later (post 1965 Alon) 'coupe POH's contain an emergency procedures section? My handbook has very little emergency related items, and they are scattered throughout the book. 2. I'm probably showing my lack of experience here but every control surface has one hinge that has a braided wire going from the flying surface side of the hinge to the control surface side. It looks like it's design to be a conductor but seems only to connect the two sides of the hinge. Dissimilar metals corrosion prevention? Static wicks? 3. I couldn't see any counterweights on the ailerons. Do they have/need them? 4. Anyone know of a good Coupe CFI or really experienced non-CFI in the San Francisco Bay Area who would help a newbie learn? Also, what's the ICAO designator of Er/Aircoupes for flight plans and weather briefings?
