YOU BE THE JUDGE fl GUILTY! Y/ER~ {GWlf}t DID A rEW EQUIPMENT TRAINING TEAM UP-DATE YOUR PILOTS ON THIS ' NEW BIRD? Dear Windy, I've looked high and low-without suc- cess for the allowable play in the Huey (UH-ID/H) droop compensator connecting link rod-end bearing, FSN 3110- 73-5072 What are the limits, Windy, which would require changing the rod end? SP6 R. McC. Dear Specialist R. McC., There're no limits because you're not allowed any play. You'll still get some slight move- ment, however, when you plant your mitts on the link during a looseness check ... no sweat! 'Course, if the bearing is worn from lack of lubrication or contamination you'll have a very loose link on your hands. Para 25 of TM 55-405-3 (12 Jul 661 lists "excessive looseness" as one of the conditions which call for a bearing change. .. rHo ABOUT .
