          Appeal No. 98-2755                                                          
          Application 08/048,969                                                      



          COHEN, Administrative Patent Judge.                                         




                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
                    This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims              
          16 through 18.  Claims 9 and 10 stand withdrawn from further                
          consideration by the examiner, pursuant to 37 CFR § 1.142(b),               
          as being based upon a non-elected invention.  These claims                  
          constitute all of the claims remaining in the application.                  


                    Appellant’s invention pertains to a method of in-                 
          stalling a starter-generator having a drive end on an aircraft              
          engine.  An understanding of the invention can be derived from              
          a reading of exemplary claim 16, a copy of which appears in                 
          EXHIBIT A appended to the brief (Paper No. 33).                             


                    As evidence of obviousness, the examiner has applied              
          the documents listed below:

                                          2
