Have you modified your aircraft? STC? STOL Kit? Major rebuild from just a data plate?

There used to be a "tundra tire worksheet" which was part of the field approval process for oversized tires, mainly used in Alaska.
I used to have a sample but it got lost when my last computer took a dump.
It had a section to fill out re change in CG, making sure it was still in the approved envelope with extreme fwd and aft loadings.
Also something about maintaining mimimum prop clearance, loded up and in level attitude with the wheels on greased plates.
Also a box to check that you'd flown it at extreme fwd & aft CG limits.

Anybody here got a copy of that worksheet?


That's the AC I mentioned in my last post. It's outdated and essentially legally means nothing to the FAA anymore.
