Wesco moodel AS-2B skis
I have a pair of Wesco wheel replacement skis that came with my 170B when I bought it. The skis have the safety cables and tip up springs attached. Included were the attaching brackets for the fuselage. However, I can't locate any approved data regarding mounting procedures. Any ideas where I might get ANY info about these skis? Have any of you ever used this brand of ski before? The pedestals show that they were manufactured in 1951. Thanks.
Re: Wesco moodel AS-2B skis
AC43.13-2B Chapter 5 is approved data. Your skis are listed on the TCDS A-799 item 208 (j)(3). I'd try to find Wesco drawings 11 and 148 as listed there. Cessna Tech Support (316) 517-5800 might be able to help with those documents for a price. Another source might be the Cessna 120-140 Association as these skis are also listed on their TCDS. If you are able to locate these documents please forward copies to the Association for our Mx. Library.
