[net.aviation] Modifications?

cwp (02/24/83)

Can anyone tell me about the FAR's in regard to updating an older certified
aircraft with parts from a newer model. I know that rear windows on an old
Bonanza can be added with an STC, but how about a '74 nosebowl from a
Cherokee 140 substituted for the old bug-smasher type on my '66 140-4? It
would also improve performance to take off the old wheelpants and fit the
fairings from a '78 or later Warrior.
