The earlier "P"s should be T337GP.

BTW ICAO has changed references for the skymaster. You can file as a P337 which designates pressurized. I get the odd query "what is a "P" 337" from the...

re hub cap

I assume this is one in the mains and it is a 337.

If so...... then flying without a hub cab would not create a problem. It is not in the minimum equipement list <G> nor is it a critical part. ...

Clutch is normally de-energized. You can take a couple of cables and apply voltage directly to solenoid (12v not 24volts) and you should hear it energize. (disconnect the harness plug on the...

re garmin

Larry

The altitude is of little value off the gps unless you decide to add or subtract the barometric difference, therefore I rely solely on the barometric altimeter.

As to the indicator I use the...

re single engine altitude

I would assume;

1) 75% power or greater. 31/2800 would be minimum.
2) I would consider trying full power to see what would happen.
3) You should be able to get 37" at test altitude otherwise...

re P210

I owned a P210 (85), a 310 and 1/2 a 402b and now a P337.

There are a lot of similarities.

1) 337 is a more stable IFR platform.
2) maintenance was not cheap on the P210
3) backup vacuum was...

re encoder

The ameriking is very small and can be placed almost anywhere. I use one as a second encoder with a second transponder. This one is far easier to calibrate.

Deja vu

1) There is a connector at the pitot head which consists of rubber tubing and two clamps. This is a problem area and should look first if you have a PITOT LEAK.

If you have a 336 there is a possibility you might be able to adopt one.
