Attention all members interested in the conversion to the TCM IO-360 engine on the Cessna C-179 airplane.
Last summer, while I was luxuriating in my summer estate (a 26 ft. 5th wheel travel trailer) in Yellowpine, Idaho, a member called me at my home in Rancho Corsova, CA, and left his name and phone number on my answering machine. He had called me at the suggestion of Tom Anderson, also known as Tail Wheel Tom, the TCM IO-360 STC holder,I assume to ask me some questions about my TCM IO-360 conversion. He left his name and phone number, but when I tried to re-interrogate the machine to get it, I hit the "delete" number rather than the "repeat" number and completely lost him. I felt guilty as hell in that I figured he would think me a miserable SOB for not calling him back. I don't really have any idea what he wanted.
If by chance any of our members happen to be that guy, please call me any time at all at 916-635-5566. I love to talk about that conversion with anyone.

Now that I have my computer going again (I just switched over from AT&T to Comcast) I'll admit that I never did find the unknown caller about the IO-360 conversion.

Hey Dick, I believe it was me inquiring about your IO-360 Install. I was considering upgrading to a bigger engine. I will give you a call soon. Doug Mueller
