I have not been, but at one of the A&P shops I did part time work,
I saw a Piper Arrow come in to correct a list of items found on a
ramp check at Hicks airport in Fort Worth.
For some reason I don't remember the feds did not like the door and
they had to replace it, as well as a cracked tail cone. The feds
also complained about an oily belly (!), and other items I don't
remember now.

I have been flying for 58 years, over 5000 hours in many aircraft
and NEVER been ramp checked. But now that I have stated this I am
sure I will get nailed next time I am in the Coupe.

I hope that this is sufficiently detached from our previous topic,
but I would like to know if any of you have personally experienced
a ramp check with your Ercoupe and if so, could you briefly
describe the experience (level of scrutiny)?
I know that this will be ignored, but pretty please, with sugar on
top, no second hand accounts.
Come springtime, out here in the Appalachians, ramp (Allium
tricoccum) check has a much nicer meaning.
Thanks much,
Bill
