Subject: [LML] Reichel Trim Wheel - Good News
Hello All,
A good friend of mine and fellow pilot Dave Wyman helped Dick Reichel build his 360. As many of you know Dick was killed in a crash back in the late 90's. Dick and another mutual friend Bill Daffron engineered an improved elevator trim wheel system which many of you are using and which some have expressed interest in installing.
As you can see from message below, Dick's widow kept the original drawings and will make them available to the community, I will scan and upload these as soon as possible- hopefully sometime next week.
She also has some parts and pieces (no inventory yet) from the original production runs. Dave Wyman was involved in the original design and fabrication and has offered to help put another production run together. No costs yet but assuming the costs are reasonable, how many builders would be interested in purchasing a Reichel complete system?
I include myself in the number. Sick of the original trim system.
Regards,
Wayne Bailey

Hey,
On Thursday, Dick's widow Linda is going to give me the drawings and a bunch of bits and pieces, for dfistribution to the needy.
She really is financially strapped, so whatever we can sell should be sold for her.
I know of a talented guy (a former employee of mine) with a full machine shop in his garage, who might want to produce a batch if they were presold, and maybe give a cut to Linda, etc.
Maybe you could survey the needy guys out there in cyber-land and see how we can get 'em flying?
Our bird is down with a burned-out flap motor.
Hi to Patty
Hi Dave,
Just fly to OXR/CMA with Patty today. Didn't land, just overflew. Had to get back. Poor vis.
Love to see you and Dianne sometime soon. Been TOO long.
Re trim wheel - 320/360 is out of production. Doubt if there is market in Lancair corporate for resale. It would be nice to put the drawings into Lancair community for use as needed by pilots. Reduce efforts and errors on reverse engineer. Make community safer.
If drawings are avail, I would be happy to scan and upload to the list
If any parts are avail, I am sure there would be a market. I would also be happy to publish that to the list - suspect they would sell immediately.
Let me know.
Love to you both.
Wayne, Patty, and Lucy
PS Just sell-e-brated 4th wedding anniversary!!!! Does it get ANY easier?

Hello Dave,
I have blue prints of the trim wheel, I kept them because I always believed in the trim wheel design. I will be in Santa Barbara on Dec. 4th, Thursday. I will bring them with me. As a matter of fact I have often thought of selling the design to Lancair. Email me about what you would like me to do.
Love, Linda

Dave,
Seems the trim wheel you guys is still the best tech.
Guys in Lancair builders groups are trying to reverse engineer.
Do you think there are any drawings or fixtures available from Bill's efforts?
Would really help these guys out to put on the LML blog.
Bill and Dick would be proud no doubt.
Lets go flying in 10RD.

Larry,
I have a Reichel trim system that I could loan you for the purpose of reverse engineering. I'm still building and hope to fly next summer so would like it back no later than spring time. If this sounds good to you send me your address and number . I will get home next week and could send it then. Let me know.
