Default Pawnee landing gear

We have fitted cable restraining straps to our two Pawnees... They save
the plane and prop in most cases with this or a strut-end failure (of
which we have had a couple)..... Craig

We have two PA-25-235s. We replaced all six bolts on the

before flying it.

The bolts on both planes were replaced the last time that the bungees

were
renewed. I don't have the details. I expect that we will replace the
bolts more frequently going forward.

The FAA is in the loop.
