Hi, thanks for the replies.
Its appreciated.
The aircraft has Cleveland hydraulic disk brakes fitted to it which I think is a good thing.
And yes the idea behind this is for training.
I will give the Auster spares guy a bell tomorrow and see what his synopsis is.
My initial impressions, after looking at stuff is..
Toe brake conversion is doable with lots of hassle and work providing there is enough room between the pedals and the bulkhead on full rudder.
Extra heel brakes would be a lot simpler but would still be,, heel brakes.
I'll post my findings here.
Once again thanks for the replies.
Skelly.
