Hope you still read forum posts. Interested in comment you made about counter spring on throttle rod, to overcome strong spring on engine. Not sure if same design is on my CH750, but do you have any photos of your change, or can you describe it in more detail ? Thanks,

Jim

Running 912ul. Would love to see how you setup your 701. Drop in someday soon.

At 11:36pm on January 11, 2010, Bill W. Proctor said…: Lee, I have the parts set aside for you; the price will be 1/2 of the current price from zenith aircraft; I will check and see what the current price is. Glad your move is over. Bill

It was a surprise to see another Delano that is not a close relative and building a 701 as well. There are not many in Canada, Delanos that is.

Regards,

Perry Delano

Thanks for sending my shirt back. I forgot all about it so it was a nice suprise.

How is your airplane repair coming?

At 12:57am on June 4, 2009, Bill W. Proctor said…: Lee, I have the complete rudder parts set aside. I will keep them until you need them or you can come pick them up. How is the rebuild coming along? Bill 209-772-1183

At 1:02am on May 21, 2009, Bill W. Proctor said…: Lee, glad you were not hurt!! I have a complete rudder kit from zenith; you can have it for 1/2 of what ever price Zenith is charging now. I am off to Denver tomorrow and back Tuesday May 26th. I will save the rudder kit for you. If it turns out you don't need it that is ok. Sorry for the damage to your airplane. Bill

At 1:59pm on May 14, 2009, Bill W. Proctor said…: Lee, I saw a note in the Stockton Record about a plane mishap at Oakdale. Hope it was not you or if it was hope uou were not injured. If it was your airplane can you share what happened so I can learn from it. Thanks Bill Proctor

At 11:38am on May 1, 2009, Bill W. Proctor said…: Lee, woops! I forgot about Mothers Day!! If you are not coming straight back I better drive up; you are still welcome to stop here if you have time. Bill

At 11:01am on May 1, 2009, Rick Lach said…: Hi Lee,

Sounds great to me, the more the better. I'll just come up to Oakdale and we can go from there. We can go to Bill's place or what ever you think is EZ. I only have that quick stop in Turlock to drop off some parts befor I get to your place.

Had a good day yesterday, took my plane down to get it annualed. It was a little windy down here, going east to west just north of Tehachapi I had an airspeed of 105MPH and a GPS ground speed of 48MPH. That is the biggest difference I’ve seen so far. By the time I got back it was two windy to land at home so I had to park it at Kernville and wait for a ride home.

If you want to e-mail me direct it might be faster: rick@ravenaviation.us

Well things are getting close enough to start making some firm plans. It's almost impossable to get me by phone so if you wouldn't mind could you send me yor phone number and a good time to call. I'll give you a ring and we can go over the details for the Cloverdale trip.

Rick

At 10:33am on March 30, 2009, Bill W. Proctor said…: Lee, thanks for the quick response; I will look forward to meeting you.
I am planning on going to Cloverdale fly-in...If I don't go with your group I will see you there. Bill Proctor

At 11:02pm on March 29, 2009, Bill W. Proctor said…: Lee, would like to have you visit: I like to meet visitors at Lodi or San Andreas airport and drive over here to inspect the runway and associated obstacles. I have a neighbor whose house we need to avoid also. You can contact me by e-mail or phone. Bill Proctor 209-772-1183 billwproctor@cs.com

At 12:15pm on March 28, 2009, Rick Lach said…: Hi Lee,

Sounds good. The general plan is I'll go by Dan's place first and from there we will go to Oakdale and meet up with you. Between now and then I'll be confirming time estimates and so on. If you need to get a hold of me it's faster if you e-mail me direct at: rick@ravenaviation.us

Rick

At 11:48am on March 26, 2009, Rick Lach said…: Hi Lee,

I am planning on going to the Fly-in at Cloverdale on Saturday May 9th. I'll be going by Turlock to meet a friend Dan Wilde, he flies a 701 also. Would you be interested in meeting up with us and continuing on to Cloverdale? We were going to fly up on the Friday before and coming back the Sunday after.

Rick
