It’s good that you caught that. If the fluid drained out the gear would not unlock. The spring locks the gear up. And only hydraulic pressure will release it.

Check out AC 43-210A.

The logic of a minor alteration is good…but since an STC exists for this alteration, it is considered a Major alteration by definition. It’s a kind of catch 22. This would...

Flap Droop Horton STOL kit

Does the Horton STOL kit add any flap droop? Or are the flaps mechanically set IAW the service manual?

Same question for the Robertson kit.

My 337B has the Horton STOL kit. No stall speed. Elevator runs out of authority before wing stalls (power off). Power on, nose is so high it scares you into lowering it.

I saw that. But what I didn’t see is the list of approve aircraft for the STC. So I’m asking if there’s more documentation then what is displayed on the website?
