337 Field approvals
I remember seeing, some time ago, that the FAA wasn't going to allow field approvals anymore. A recent blurb in AvWeb reminded me of that, when AOPA wanted to update the brakes on their new WACO, they couldn't do it.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Would that affect new radios, which are frequently done as a 337 form.
I know when the alt air box on my front engine was going bad, they talked about drilling it out and putting a bushing in it, but I got a new one from Don Nieser, which eliminated that. They, the shop, thought bushing it up would be simple, but would require a 337 form. Given what I have been hearing, that would have been difficult, if not impossible to do.
