Good afternoon,

Nice to see another ACA owner on board. I own 7ACA N9142L with the Foriginal Franklin located at 58J, Huggins Memorial Airpark in Timmonsville, SC. Feel free to contact me with any questions and ill help out the best I can.

Any help greatly appreciated. We are very in need of a hinged top cowling for our 7AC. Wag is out of stock so right now Univair is the option. Would be interested in a good used one if anybody has one or knows of one. Has anyone purchased one from Univair and if so how was the fit? Also, if anyone k...

Dan i'll be watching this thread as well. Currently have a '71 ACA also but with the boat anchor Franklin that has been giving me a fit ever since being reinstalled after recover job. would like to get any hints,tips,tricks as well. Thanks for the info.

Need a little help guys. I am in need of 2 Slick 2070 mags. Only thing I havent done is call Unison directly. Would that be my best option? Can't find anything online for mags or parts for these mags. They go on the Franklin 2A-120 2 cylinder engine. Either looking for new or some that are in good s...

Thanks! Atleast until you see the half a engine up front when opening the cowling. Looks like they meant to put a baggage compartment up there but got distracted and forgot....

This was test fitting everything after recover

I have to admit that I too still have the 2 banger on front of mine also. As mentioned above, cruises at 80+, climbs out about 450-550 fpm at sea level, and in the 850 hours we have owned it have only had one plug foul out. Right over the airport thankfully, never quit, but got really really weak. A...

Morning guys, anyone from the bard going to try and make this fly-in?

Sonny

Thanks alot guys. Never even imagined the velcro solution. Will give it a try.

Need a little help guys. I am in desperate need of some window parts. I am working on a 7ACA Champ. It has the sliding front left windows like the 7AC. Mine had a round type of cloth material where the windows met to avoid scratching when being opened or closed. I cannot find it anywhere. Was this s...

Afternoon CptKelly, where are you and the engine located? Thanks,
Sonny

Neat rotator there Nate. I have been trying to figure out a way to do this without the 300 or so $$$ for the one sold through Bogart. Hope you don't mind, but I may try to copy yours. By the way what is the wing to in the background, love that red.
Sonny

Good morning Mark. See that you are at J-22 Air Ranch. Who is it that got the champ? I was there in Nov. and brought a Pacer to Timmonsville for my uncle that he bought from Mr. Maddox. Really enjoyed the little time I had at the place and talking with the gentleman with the Ercoupe at the end.

Finally got it all straightened out. It is fully covered with Valerie for approx: $1075.00 a year. Which amazed me due to his hours, approx: 12,000 hours total time and roughly 130 in type. I guess it is the nature of the beast with a Pacer. This one has yet to exhibit any off the wall habits, BUT, ...
