Default New Tail Wheel!

Dayton Murdock the man that makes the throttle quadrants has developed a new LIGHTER tail wheel.

I received mine yesterday and installed it. It looks good and is lighter weight. I hope to get started using it today.

Call Dayton and get yours soon.

Dayton, I'm still waiting for mine. Did it get lost in the mail?

MAN, I HATE WAITING FOR AIRCRAFT PARTS

Bill, what do you need a tailwheel for? I thought you decided to modify your 9 to a 9A. You know, better vis while taxiing.

Bruce, that hurt more than hitting that darn trailer!

I'm still waiting to hear from my insurance company regarding the engine. Once I know what they want to do, I can start ordering parts.

Default Daytons Wheel!!

With my new tail wheel I 'feel' like I am going faster, I am more handsome, The Borrowed Horse is cooler, flies higher, lands slower, never bounces. Man what an improvement ,,,, Uses less gas too!!!

Way to go Dayton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
