Yes sir we should all look in our records and forward and 337s no matter what to HQ or direct to me so I can add them to our library.

I was quite disappointed that our library only contained on 337 that meet this criteria. Then I started to think about it and wasn't that surprised after doing so. You see I think people at the time and before just made the changes and didn't bother with a 337. No one cared because they, the mechanics and CAA knew enough to know when things were OK because they knew the machines. Today, in the Cub world, somethings are gotten away with simply because Piper and mechanics after changed things as they went. Now, in our strict world we are trying to figure out how things are suppose to be.
