Wing swap

[jd99a]

I am looking for anyone that has received a field approval for a cessna 182 wing on a 172. I have a copy of the 175 to 170. And I have the Cessna letter but a 337 would be very helpful.

As you already may know the two wings are completely different and would change the aircraft flight envelope, POH, TCDS and other things. I did happen to check and could not find a field approval for this swap. This is something a field inspector CAN NOT approve. Only the Aircraft Certification Office (ACO) could approve this as an one time STC.

And you want to do this.... why?
