    Redesigning Cruisemaster instrument panel

    Hello everyone. I'm coming to the decision of a full panel redesign in my 14-19-2. Obviously - this is not an easy task of placing instrument templates on canvas and sending this to a laser-cutting machine as Cruisemaster have: - rather limited panel space - possible instrument locations are...

    what about additional fuel on a 14-19-2 ?

    Currently I do have 2x20 gals wing tanks and 14 (in fact - 17) gallons aux. This is good - but only if I do fly nearby or not-so-long x-country. Are there any options (lighter or heavier ones) to get more fuel onboard ? Ideal solution would be a 6-6.5h endurance or about 1k mile range. Do any...

    Hello everyone again. Do you have additional circuit breakers on the bottom of your circuit breakers panel ? While reassembling my 14-19-2 and doing a total inspection of everything I've stumped on an "interesting" setup of some circuit breakers. I do have an additional row of CB's at the very...

    Illustrated parts or maintenance manual for 14-19-2

    Looked over Club publications and have not found such an essential thing. Emailed a question to AAC, but do not hope for good. Are there/where there any of them in existence ? Just now I'm interested in cables/pulleys/springs routing for rudder, elevator and tail wheel. But surely I'll have...

    Greetings from another 14-19-2 owner

    Hello everyone. N9848B, sn 4100 had moved to snowy and frosty Russia. I'm glad that more than a year search of a proper Triple-Tail project has ended at last. I know this particular one was under long-going restoration by Robert Seals when he passed away. His hand-written notes on restoration...
