Looking to upgrade my 1968 Cherokee 140 bowtie yokes to the ACS units. Anybody have recent experience in getting an FAA approval.

    What are the ACS units?

    If no STC, you will need a field approval.

    You’re going to need to get a field approval for this. The FAA will want to see qualification data for the parts to a known standard such as part 23 (off another approved aircraft installation) PMA or TSO approval. I looked at this some time ago for my 65 140, with the AD involved, not likely you can get an approval for the ACS. I have heard that of others using control wheels on a Cessna I think (part 23 approval) but have not looked into it.
