I hope not to jinx anyone, but it seems to me like it has been a while since an A model has nosed over (Other than a for-cause crash landing). Are the various fixes that have been applied to much of the fleet working? My gut assessment is telling me yes.
I have about 500 grass landings on my 6A. I have: the Vans SB, Metco Axel, Anti Splat Nose Job, and the Anti Splat lip skid. I run 45psi in my nose wheel.
I always use full aft stick, but I have a relatively nose heavy plane, so I can't say the nose doesn't see some rough action. There is no marking on my nose gear to indicate that the nose job has ever bottomed out against it.
