<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT  SIZE=2>Thanks, Bob. &nbsp;I'm sure you'll understand when I tell you I'm a bit frustrated <BR>at the moment. &nbsp;The airplane is now on its jack stand. I've absolutely <BR>confirmed that it holds perfectly on the up side. &nbsp;Initially, I thought it <BR>might be the shuttle valve in the pump, but after flushing the system with <BR>fresh hydraulic fluid and isolating the pump, no cycling. &nbsp;Moreover, the <BR>cycling in general has stopped. &nbsp;
<BR>
<BR>I feel like the car owner who goes to the shop and can't replicate the <BR>problem for the mechanic. &nbsp;So, tomorrow I'll take the plane down and go fly <BR>it. &nbsp;$10 says the minute I start to taxi it will start again. &nbsp;Then after <BR>using the appropriate four letter expletive, I'll start isolating the <BR>actuators to see if I can find the culprit. &nbsp;I appreciate your tip. &nbsp;...Byron
