[Boatanchors] OT: Narco Mk 12

[D C *Mac* Macdonald]

Hello, Glenn. 
 
The Narco MK 12 (and MK 12D) are all now banned from 
use in aircraft. I have sent a bcc: copy to a friend 
who USED to repair these things at an avionics shop 
and continued to do so privately for many years until 
about 10 years ago, if I recall. 
 
I worked on a few of them myself at the other FBO at
Will Rogers Airport in OKC, but have no docs on them. 
I really disliked them and preferred King avionics. 
 
He MAY wish to contact you Glenn.
