RE: Comp-Arf Lightning
Just a small footnote.... took the lightning to our club field on sunday and put it all together on a stand and then cycled the gear as part of my preflight checks and one of the struts complete with all the retract yoke on the end, fell out and dangled by the brake line.... reason ... the pin in the behotec retract has nothing to retain it in the retract unit,on either side it had just slid out in transport and was lodged inside the wing,,, obviously the 1/4 inch steel bar ( approx ) was machined to fit the bearings in the retract but must be teenie weenie bit small to drop out like that......any body got a cure ?,, so discression was brought into play and I went to lunch and got no flights that day............
