Wipaire 2100A unscheduled maintainance (TT 320 HR SN)

The 2100As required some unscheduled maintenance:

2016.04.18, TT 320 hours:

(1) The drag link rubber plug needed to be re-sealed with RTV. The plug is colored black, next to the brake calipers:

(2) A hydraulic fitting had a very slow leak. Loosened and re-tighten. Pressurized and checked. Looks good.

Location of fitting is the right nose gear "Down" hydraulic line. I noticed "Red" water pumping float after getting back from flying.

(3) (Right) lower ventral fin on the horizontal stabilizer needed a few seems re-sealed.
