Been away for a week.

There is a whole "sticky" thread for those considering buying a 337 -- make sure you read it.

In the earlier responses no one is suggesting a middle road. Such a thing can be...

Yes, legal counsel can convince families to sue, but that wasn't the question. Karl asked whether lawyers can "bring cases against the company in the families name even if the family doesn't want...

But we haven't answered Karl's basic question: can the lawyer sue without a plaintiff who suffered damages? And I think the basic answer is NO (or perhaps better, since any fool can sue, it will get...

If memory serves, the Skymasters were ferried to Vietnam on both engines for virtually the entire trip. There was a wonderful, long article about the aircraft, with a detailed description of the...

Paul, I don't know the answer to that (although I think not, or everyone would keep US registry to avoid SBs and SIDs), my point was solely one of cost. The cost of the SIDs is not in doing the...

I think that disassembling, crating, shipping, and re-assembling a Skymaster is likely to cost somewhere...

If you have trouble finding the item or it's too expensive, check with repair facilities that do exhaust parts.

Even for larger items (like the rear engine muffler), my experience is that these...

Two points.

1. I believe that Roger's message deals with SIDs. Perhaps Larry can move it (and this one) to one of the SID threads.

2. Roger's last point, about Cessna 172 operators, suggests that...

Larry, most of this thread and all of the last message deals only with Part 91 operators. Herb's point 5 also dealt solely with Part 91.

As you note, most foreign operators, won't be so lucky. And...

After you show the IA or shop the FAA document referenced by Roger? I don't think so.
