    Had to postpone. About a week behind schedule. Hope to reschedule before the end of the month

    Officially Airworthy

    Put in eleven hours on the Cub July 4. As fireworks were going off late that night I texted the DAR and told him I was getting close to done. Tuesday July 5 at 0700 I read an E Mail saying he would be there that afternoon to inspect. It was a crazy morning.


    Long story short: all is well and 3737R now has an airworthiness certificate.

    Just curious, why you are replacing an induction tube. Was this damage or a manufacturing error?

    It seems the tube is too short causing a leak causing #4 to run super lean or not at all. I did the SB and if I line up the tube it doesn't go all the way into the cylinder and if I insert it all the way into the cylinder it doesn't line up.
