. DUE TO LOW RPM WHILE LDG AC RAN OUT OF LEFT PEDAL & HAD TO LND WITH ICDT DMG TO ACFT \
War Story:
.I finally found my complete tail number after so long. 67-17204.... Be
advised that the reason old 204 is listed as an 'H' model is that I flew to Ben Hua on an ash and trash to pick up a new engine for (guess what?!) my aircraft... 67-17204. The navy CPO driving the fork lift was in a real hurry. He sort of told me the engine was "over there! You go stand by it and when I get this loaded, I'll come over and load you up!" Well, there were two engine canisters over there.
One was labeled "dash 11 (-11)" and the other was labeled "-13" (can't remember now if it was a dash or an L in the number)..... Excellent Warrant Officer training required me to point to the -13! What else? We took it back to the Beekeeper and presto! An H model! All we had to do aside from the obvious wt. and bal. computations was to put a crossmember in the oil cooler fan compartment, put the battery in the nose, and replace the D model tourque gauge with a D model engine oil pressure gauge (red lined at 49.5 with tape on the face) and I had the first H model Hornet aircraft (to the best of my knowledge)!
