  Troops,
     2 subjects:   Just replaced all three sequence valves, one of  the snap rings on the Rt, Main blew out at retract pressures, A MESS.  The rings should "almost " disappear into the body of the valve around the circumference part of the ring, an annual check item.
                            Rudder lock: I use two small pieces of padded wood with an AN 3 bolt  
between them thru the rudder.  You're not depending on rudder cables to hold the rudder stationary. And pained red, they get your attention on pre-flight walk around.  Don Skeele  N320J

Subject: [LML] Nose Gear Sequence Valve on LNC2

I am doing my annual. Scott told me to look at my nose gear sequence  
valve, because Scott and another fellow had the sequence valves come  
loose.

Sure enough, the nut on my nose gear sequence valve was loose about  
1/4" and I am sure that at some time in the near future, the push  
bolt would have come out. This would have caused the nose gear door  
to remain open.

LNC2 owners: Inspect your nose gear sequence valve.
