Hallelujah
April is upon us, and I have but one
thing to say about this: Hallelujah!
Preparations for EAA AirVenture
Oshkosh 2008 have already reached
a fever pitch for not only our key vol
unteers and staff, but also all of our
valued chairmen and chairwomen,
who provide much of the heavy lift
ing in preparation for the big show
in Oshkosh. As I write this month's
column, it is the first of March, and
I just attended the initial meeting of
the Vintage Aircraft Parking & Flight
line Safety Committee. We met this
year at the Kalamazoo Air Museum in
Kalamazoo, Michigan.
In the midst of all of the planning
that goes into preparing the Vintage
area of the convention, we always
find ourselves reflecting on just how
many airplanes, campers, etc. may
show up in our area of responsibil
ity. How many pancakes will need
to be flipped? How many bags of ice
hauled out of the freezer? How many
volunteer caps and T-shirts should
we have on hand this year? It's great
to be a popular destination, but that
does give us the responsibility to
plan for the needs of all who attend
the convention.
We are currently experienCing a
unique level of interest from our type
club representatives who want to be a
part of our increasingly popular type
club parking area. Typically, in Jan
uary we hear from only a few of the
type clubs about their opportunities
to park a number of their aircraft type
together at AirVenture. The unique
ness of the 2008 event is aU about
the number of different aircraft type
clubs requesting to participate, and
the high number of individual aircraft
craftorg/programs/redbam.html.
In my January Straight & Level
column, you ma y recall I referred
to a number of local fly-ins around
northeastern Indiana that I rou
tinely attempt to attend each fly
ing season. For whatever reason, I
mistakenly stated that the Fly-In,
Cruise-In event at Marion, Indiana,
that Ray Johnson puts together ev
ery year in support of the local high
school band was set for Memorial
Day weekend . In fact , as most of the

FRONT COVER The pusher-pod-boom design conce pt has been around for nearly as long as air
planes have been made, but few have made it in the aviation marketplace. This one is the An
derson-Greenwood AG-14, restored by Dave Powell , whose dad used to work for the company.
Read more about it in Budd Davisson's article starting on page 14. EM photo by Bonnie Kratz.
BACK COVER: Another in our series of British lightplane photographs taken by David Macready,
this is Alan Hartfield's Dart Kitten II, a single-place lightplane built to use the 36 hp JAP engine
(a licensed two-cylinder Aeronca design). For more on the unique aeroplanes of the United King
dom, see our continuing series of photo essays beginning on page 10.

A, B, and F Models
The FAA in mid-February proposed
to adopt a new airworthiness directive
(AD) for Taylorcraft A, B, and F models
requiring inspection of the wing strut
attach fittings for corrosion or cracks.
This is in addition to the earlier AD is
sued in October 2007 to inspect the
wing struts themselves. (That AD was
revised on February 22, 2008, as Taylor
craft AD 2008-04-09.)
If any corrosion or cracks are found
in the wing strut attach fitting, repair
or replacement would be required. If
not corrected, this condition could
result in failure of the wing strut at
tach fittings and lead to wing separa
tion and loss of control. The proposed
AD comes after analysis of data col
lected from an accident involving a
Taylorcraft Model BF12-65 airplane,
in which a wing separated from the
airplane after the wing strut attach fit
ting failed due to corrosion.
EAA's government relations depart
ment and VAA will review the wing
strut attach fitting notice of proposed
rulemaking and will solicit input from
Taylorcraft type clubs before submitting
its comments to the FAA.

11Ie view over the nose can be a bit disconcerting, since there's no nose out there to use when gauging the pitch angle.
Aquick glance to the side will confinn the angle. Not until helicopters went into regular production was there such an
unobstructed view from a post-World War II aircraft.
Decades of outdoor storage in the Houston, Texas, area wreaked havoc on the
original structure of the AG-14
"How bad to you want to restore this airplane?" Thanks in part to a family tie
(his dad worked for Anderson-Greenwood), Dave Powell was very motivated to
save one of the five airplanes built before the Korean War put a halt to produc
tion. All-new skins were required on much of the airframe.

Dear George:
My 170 is a 1948 model with a
C-145 engine. The oil-temp gauge is
original and I have not checked it for
accuracy yet. I take off and climb to
2,000 feet and within 15 minutes the
oil temp is touching the red line of
225 degrees. The instrument doesn't
give exact temp readings. It has only
a green arc all the way across its face
and then a red line.
The engine cooling baffling is of
the original type and is in good con
dition. I have checked the mag timing
and it is set on factory specs accord
ing to the engine manual.
The cowling lower half is new with
lip at bottom . Last flight was in temp
of 55 degrees OAT. Can oil cooler be
put on this engine? Thanks for any
help you can give me.
Russ
Hello, Russ!
The C-145 and 0-300 are essen
tially the same engine, with only
a name change, so they are both
considered 0-300 for the purpose of
this discussion.
The original intent of Continen
tal (TCM) was to avoid all external
oil lines for their engines in order to
avoid the troublesome engine failures,
which Lycoming experienced due to
breakage of external oil lines. Besides
the rocker-box return oil lines, Lycom
ing also experienced failures of oil
cooler oil lines. Needless to say, this
can lead to complete starvation of lu

Fly-In Perils
A heightened sense of awareness is imperative
With the wind blowing at a steady
15 knots and the gusts reaching into
the high 30s and low 40s, it certainly
made the temperature, which was
struggling to get out of the single
numbers, feel as if I was in the Arctic.
Combining that with the whiteout
conditions that occurred not only as
the snow squalls blew through, but
also with each new gust, it definitely
was not a day that inspired me to go
flying. In fact, the way the wind was
blowing it was difficult not to go fly
ing just walking from the car to my
office at the airport.
Although it is true that I prefer
cooler climes to hotter ones, I couldn't
help but think about spring and the
onset of warmer weather and, con
current with that, the beginning of
the fly-in season, which for me typi
cally starts with Sun In Fun. With the
frigid conditions outside I figured this
to be an ideal time to download the
Sun In Fun Fly-in NOTAM.
As I waited for the download to
finish, my thoughts drifted forward
a couple of months. Ahhh . .. sun
shine ... warm temperatures . ..
