Stainless Steel Flap Actuators
I just got an e-mail from new member  Shenandoah Whalen. He recently bought S/N 126 N87564 and S/N 819 and sent some information about stainless steel flap actuators from Grove Aircraft Company.
See the information on the "Parts for Sale" page. (Don't know the price.)

Do you have the required Franklin Reverse placard?

Reverse Placard

Jim Poel has had a few made up and has kindly donated them to us. There is a very limited supply.

If you need one and ONLY IF YOU NEED ONE, send $2 to cover shipping and I will get one out to you. Send your name, address and serial number of your Seabee (you must be an IRSOC member to get one. New members welcome!) to Steve at smestler@pbtcomm.net.


The dimensions of the palcard are 1.25" x 2" (or 32mm x 54mm)
