I'm glad that they still find it worthwhile to make ADs when needed.


Like to see a TN and parts to change the retracts to a fixed gear.


LTB Lindner has been asked that a number of times. Apparently,
they have no interest in doing so.


How much, if anything is there in common between the fixed u/c mounting
structure in a Twin Astir and an Acro II?

Just a thought inspired by the apparent ease with which the early Libelle
201s could be converted from fixed to retractable u/c.
