Texas Barnstorming Museum
I'm New Here
Our RV-12 has 1.5 hours on it since being built and certified in 2015. We are giving the airplane away in a raffle, so I want it 100%. I don’t want the winner to be faced with a bunch of items that haven’t been done.
We are doing the annual condition inspection now, and once complete will fly off the remaining time requirements. As y’all know, the rubber items are life limited. Are “kits” available that have all the necessary parts all together? In looking at the California Power Systems catalog, it looks like I have to order the hoses all individually, and it seems like since this is such a prolific design, there would be companies that offer compliance kits that include everything instead of the individual approach. CPS is the only shopping I have done. In reading the forums, I see lots just make their own hoses for the fuel, oil and coolant, but I’d rather go with a factory made parts, if for nothing else than liability. Where else should I look? I appreciate any advice.
Thanks,
Jim
