Harry,----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]----Hi All. For several weeks now I've been peeking in on your comments. Two weeks ago I bought a 1946 415C, and presently my A&P is going over "Everything" very carefully. Now I hate to bother you with "Dumb Questions" , but seems I've read where the Height of the Rudder and Vertical should be anywhere from 72...76 inches high. I measured mine today and it's 74 &5/8 inches from ground to top.This has probably already been asked and answered many times before...but do I have a problem, and if so, hows the best way to correct to the "Proper Height"??I have a Twin Fork on the Nose Gear and seems I read somewhere about having to add shims on the Main Gears to get "Everything Even". Any Comments??Regards...Harry Conner(USAF Ret)============================================================================== To leave this forum go to: http://ercoupers.com/lists.htm
If you will send me an SASE, I will send you some material that will back up what Ed said in his very informative post. This includes a short history of (tail raising) and most importantly, a formula that will allow you, with a few simple measurements, how to arrive at the exact thickness of the spacer for YOUR airplane
