Pawnee landing gear
Each side of the landing gear of the Pawnee is fastened with 3 bolts. Each
fore and aft outboard bolts connect through 2 sets of tabs welded to the
lower fuselage longeron. Our right hand gear is slightly loose at the
forward attach point . Either the holes in the 2 tabs are worn out-of-round
or the bolt is worn (or both). Do not know the actual condition as the bolt
has not been pulled yet (cold in the north country).
Have any other Pawnee operators seen this problem? If so, what was the
problem and what was your method to fix.
