In Reply to: AOSS Husky STC posted by Burl on April 27, 2007 at 12:02:53:
I'm looking at getting an Husky in the next Year or so, and I've been looking at options. It seems like your gear solves the Huskies tendency to bounce on landing but it also seems like it may be a good option for someone who wants to fly off skis in the winter. Let me explain. As a new pilot I'm somewhat dismayed at the cost of Hydraulic Wheel Penetration skis until I saw the Trickair skis. At a recent Aviation Show(The Canadian Aviation Expo) I talked to the Trickair people and they mentioned that they can't mount their skiis to the husky gear due to it's design. I mentioned that you have an New Gear for the Husky which may solve his problem and the combination of the two of your products would be a low cost alternative to Hydraulic Wheel skis.
Do see any issue with this?
Will you update your STC to take into account the Husky A1C at 2200 lbs?
Thank you Dane Morrison
