Thank you, JLH.

Is it possible for you to post a picture of it?

I have a hunch yours might be the same style straight lever that is on Garrets A-250. I could only share his photo through a link.

Best,

Hi folks,

I would still appreciate any additions to this database that you might have, as this is an ongoing pursuit for knowledge.

I posted my preliminary findings of the brake levers here: http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewto ... =2&t=19515, but I still need more information pertained to the "pivoted safety stop finger" for my analysis.

Thank you all, and Happy New Year!

Best,
Fran
