O2 Bottle for ASW27B

[Jim Cumiford]

I need a solution for an O2 bottle and EDS regulator
that fits my 27B with the seat back in the full aft
position. Any excellent ideas floating around out there?

Easy. The EDS regulator fits directly on top of the bottle. You can
rotate the regulator outboard such that the seat back does not
interfere with the assembly. I used a heavy duty 3M Velcro like
product to attach the EDS Control head to the side of the cockpit
between the Landing gear Up and Down detents.

For my 28 I used what seems to be the same bottle as Paul but found the
valve knob contacted the seat back. I replaced the valve knob with a
modified smaller knob from a water faucet (tap). I'm using a Nelson
regulator and had to extend the pressure gage so it could be seen in
flight.
