Screw Sizes For Original AO Pilot

[John@OWDC]

Does anyone know the exact screw sizes for the original 70's AO Pilot frames?
Takes two different sizes.
Total of four screws.
And possibly a source for a hobbyist rebuilding a frame?
Thanks

Start with a 1.2 and if it slips through move up from there to 1.3 etc., until one tightens with no resistance!!!

I think they were 1.3 eyewire and 1.4 temple.

Check Hilco's catalog for various length as well.

They would have pre-dated the use in the US of metric sizes I seem to remember that the larger (temple) screw would be the equalivant of 1.37mm.

+1 I think Hilco 05-139 is the eyewire screw
