Hi!
If I seem even *LESS* reachable than usual, or VAF News push times become non-standard, it’s because it’s that time of year again (recurrent). Knocking the rust off again - all nine brain cells at redline. Spent part of class building a phone wallpaper study guide (LOL). v/r,dr

Landing Light Install PIREP …Brantel 12
Well after sleeping on it, reading all the trials and tribulations on here and other forums about it, I was successful in getting it in safe and sound after putting some heat on it and inserting the outboard side first while squeezing it….
