Need STC Installation drawings for Bush STOL wing cuff

Hello Everyone; new member here from Jackson who spends a good amount of time on the Idaho strips; but more on that later...

Right now I am very mission driven: I have spent almost 200 hours... no I am not exaggerating... trying to get these drawings... with multiple false leads and dead ends...

Just about every person who has a BUSH/AVCON Wing cuff has these drawings in there logbook; and all I need is pictures of them so that an AI can verify correct installation as well as the correct STC number of what is installed on my aircraft... to correct a paperwork nightmare than another AI caused me.

The STC holders (Bob and Barbara Williams, Udall, Kansas) are non-communicable and have been ver difficult to reach for at least 15 years... so that is no help. The STC certificate is available online, I have one, and that is not what i need.

I simply need pictures of the installation drawings for STC SA995SW; I already have installation paperwork from very similar kits that they will not accept. There must be hundreds of these kits still flying, and I cant seem to find a single set.

Any help is appreciated... even if it is simply a tail number from a BUSH/AVCON leading edge STOL cuff equipped airplane.

Thanks RC5280, I tweaked the contrast and color and added it here:

Re: Need STC Installation drawings for Bush STOL wing cuff

The bush is very different than the "Owl." Also, whoever put my owl STOL kit in id like to bop them over the head. Its had so much filler on the leading edge, then epoxy primer and at least 2 layers of paint. Its been a royal pain in the ass to remove to prep for a Sportsman kit! Also I feel the OWL skin started lower than the Bush.
