Adding 10 degrees flap setting to early B model
Hi,
I would like to add 10 degree setting to my 52 B model. I need to replace the worn rachet so like to upgrade at the same time. Where can I buy #0510191-1 rachet.
Thanks

Cessna used to take the position that it was illegal/prohibited to place a later 10-degree ratchet-sector in an earlier B-model. But now that they've run out of the earlier sectors and only have the later one in stock, they've suddenly endorsed the idea of placing the later sector in an earlier airplane.
You can buy one from http://www.cessnaparts.com/

I've just started playing around with pulling on a little flaps just as the tail starts to come up. It's incredible! with the Lccoming it leaps 50 feet into the air and then climbs at an incredible rate at 60 mph. I wouldn't want to climb it that slow for long but it's really neat. It's a little difficult for me to be smooth doing this because it's a pretty long reach for the flap handle so it would be far better to have the 10 degree notch.
So the question is can I get to the part easily here this Summer with simple tools or should I wait until I get back to AZ this winter with all my tools and hangar. Would it only be a few hour job? Anybody priced the new part yet?

Re: Flap rachet
Collin, there should be no additional paperwork! Simply replace the part, and log it in the aircraft maintenance log with an A&P signature.Collin Gyenes wrote:Hi,
