Re: Looking for 200 Ohm Resisitor
Wiith so many Radio Shack fans coming out of the closet, I think the group has shown
Resistance is -- in fact -- NOT FUTILE! (had to, just had to).
Happy to help, Steve.

After verifying no activity at your hangar, I 'violated' Alex's & Mark's for a moment to tape the resistors to their door jamb. [A&M's door has been checked locked.]
Hope you can make them work!

190-210 ohms for your case at 5%.
Happy to solder them together for you so you have a "plug-and-play" single resistor equivalent to 205 ohms if you'd?like. Let me know! Dave

Anyone have a 200 ohm resistor, need one for hooking up VDO? fuel pressure sensor.? 1/4 watt (or less) will do as it is a signal line only.

If you¡¯re out at the airfield today would you take up the folding ¡°X¡±s on Johnson Field? If you have a truck and can bring them to the Museum Hangar apron we¡¯ll put them away.
The only ropes that need to be left up are the ones from the corner of Mark¡¯s and my hangar to the old fuel shed. We¡¯ll string one from there to the SE corner of the Museum hangar apron. This is to prevent vehicular traffic on that area of the swamp so it can heal up a bit.

Re: FAA Statement about Newark
¡as have all FAA administrators since Halaby. To be fair, they¡¯ve all had to deal with a ponderous bureaucracy, made more so by the requirements for unassailable perfection on the part of designers, engineers, fabricators and operators. It¡¯s a razor¡¯s edge - the better you are, the better you have to be. It doesn¡¯t leave much room for the human factor.
