Default RE: Curare retract question

Thanks, Ron. I gave Bill @ Spring Air a call and got great help. I've got a set of 202's on the way. Hopefully I can locate the tank in the aft fuse, or in the wing. I want to keep the cockpit open for my crash-test-dummy. He's been through a few planes now and has turned out to be a pretty good pilot. <g> So far he's worn out about 3 planes and only crashed one - an Ultra Sport. I had the controls on high rates, over-rotated on a rolling circle, grabbed a handful of elevator, and promptly had it high-speed snap into the runway. Ouch.... The dummy (the one in the plane, not w/ the tx) survived pretty well tho!

I'll update y'all on the progress as soon as the engine and retracts arrive. Thanks for all help!
