So I should start off by saying I've got about 10 hours in a Cherokee about 12 years ago and have done the rest of my time, got my licence and all in my 750 still.I've always thought it was a bit underpowered, but it's a small GA plane shaped like a 6x6 so it's not going to be a speed demon. I get about 2500-2550 WOT in a climb at about 1000ASL, and anywhere from 300-500fpm climb rate at gross.

Reusing AN nuts and bolts?

Hi,I've got a new-to-me 750 STOL sitting in my shop for a few months now. I just received a dual brake kit and have been installing that and hope to have the plane out to an airfield shortly. The wings are off for transport and to fit it in the shop. I have the nuts and bolts that were holding the wings and struts on with the plane. I had always intended on replacing all the nuts and bolts with new when I reattach the wings, but I'm now wondering if that might be overly paranoid. From what I…See More
