Vernon and 5Z,

The safety pins I was referring to look like this.

The safety pins that you show on your ASW-20's might be a different

n to the issue covered in the AD.

Schleic=
her? Someone else? =20

Also, maybe the location of your fittings are more accessible in the 20.
O=
n the DG's two of the fittings are easy to get to (through a small white
ho=

fi=
ttings are totally buried, invisible, and are difficult to get to at the
be=
st of times.

I raise a glass to my next ship that will have automatic hookups! =20

My $0.02

They both just worked for me.
