Martin,

Thank you, thank you and thank you. I have been staring at your sites
(especially that 2nd pic on the fifth row) for 3 hours try to make it out in
my head and your explaination have made it all crystal now. I am working on
drawings at the moment in an attempt to replicate a good level of realism on
the details of the quadrant which can be integrated with the cougar
throttle.

Please bear with me for the next question... I really need to find out some
numbers so I can make a good replication and I have uploaded the picture to
www.shizznit.com/images/throttle_quadrant_1.jpg . Excuse my humble drawing.
I did it in Adobe Illustrator using a few pics from your website to
demostrate what I desperately need. The picture is used for this sole
purpose only. I will delete that off my site afterward.

Thanks in advance,

Al
Sydney, Australia
