Template for location of airspeed pitot

Post by 8342 »

I have Cessna Service letter SLN-08.

They have a note on the drawing stating: "For Actual Size Pattern, Order Drawing No. 10004-80".

Where would I go the get this drawing?

Thanks,

Rick

Try Cessna piston support. They are very helpful and will often send a screenshot of a drawing or two to one's email.

Pretty sure the number is ‭+1 (316) 517-5800‬, otherwise go through txtav.com - you want technical support.

https://cessna120140.com/service-letters/ -> SLN-08
(Hopefully that'll ^ work -- it's the applicable Cessna service bulletin & in the Assoc. Library). ...and, "somewhere" around 120-140 Land there's a full size template available that's been shared over the years -- I'll look through my stuff & post if findable. Meanwhile, maybe someone else has one handy(?).

Somebody put a 3 degree 45 seconds angle callout on a piece of bent hollow aluminum tubing attached to a rag wing?!!

I called Cessna support and they sent me the Service letter that I already have.
They said that they do not have a full scale drawing as noted in the service letter.

So I am back to square one.

I guess the only thing to do is make a drawing from the dimensions shown on the service letter.

I did that years ago using the "zoom" function on a Zerox machine. Trial and error until I got it to come out right. Or, take a piece of graph paper and copy the drawing on to it, then enlarge the squares the appropriate amount, and draw the contents of each square by hand.
