[f-AA] Step and Oleo Questions

[John Baker]

Jim,

 

I did a little research on the step for your Champ.  There was an article
with drawings on making the step for the Champ in the Aeronca Aviator, the
newsletter of the Aeronca Aviators Club (AAC) , Volume 5, issue number 19.
Copies of the newsletter (which are copyrighted by the AAC) are available
from the Club.  The website is at:

 

http://www.aeronca.org/

 

You can just send a note to President Robert Szego (staff at aeronca.org), and
I'm sure he will be very accommodating.  Cost for Volume 5 including four
issues of the newsletter, nicely bound, is $14.95 for club members, $19.95
for non-members.  These old newsletters contain a wealth of info.

Subject: [f-AA] Step and Oleo Questions

 

Hello All,

Enjoy reading the interesting emails.  Two questions for today, hoping for
some guidance.  I'm a new owner of a 7BCM that spent the last 40 years of
its life on floats in MN and now it is on wheels in SC.  Somewhere along the
way the step (P/N 4-588 from the Service Manual) was lost.  I have been
looking but can find one new or used and cannot locate a drawing. (Wonder if
this would fall under "owner made part"?) Next; any information and/or
advise regarding maintenance/repair of the Oleo struts would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
