Re: 68C info
That row of nuts is what holds the hinge to the windshield frame. They may not be right, but that's what's there. Is that channel supposed to have a seal there? Or does something else cover the...

Re: Landau spacer
Ray, I contacted Berts and they only have spacers for 68A+B. Said they could make a pair for a 68C if they had one to copy. So I guess I'm still looking.

Landau spacer
Anyone know where I could pick up a pair of landau spacers for a 68C. The venders sell spacers for other cars but not for a 68c.

We cut the filter apart every time we change oil in my plane. So far all I've found is small carbon particles. If any kind of metal is found then I've got a big problem.
