Ski Installation Instructions ?

Post by rogerj »

Would appreciate receiving instructions, or advice on where to find, for installing Federal Model SC-1 skis on a Champ. Thanks! Roger

Hi Roger: if someone doesn't chime in here, try logging on to treetopflyers.org They kind of specialize in ski flying. What exactly are your questions?? There are several members of the NAA site that are veteran ski fliers and gave me ideas on setting my Champ up on Federal 1850's. Ski flying is great (as long as your heater works :lol: ).

Best source for ski rigging information is using AC43.13-2a... Here's a Link...

Ski installation starts on page 33.

Hello Roger! I hear you were out flying with the skiis on from Murph. I went up today a bit but with all the fog didn't make it down near you!
