Ex Parte ACHACHE - Page 7




          Appeal No. 2003-0552                                                        
          Application 09/190,318                                                      


          control, as in appellant’s claims before us on appeal.  Nor did             
          the examiner in the final rejection provide any cogent reasoning            
          to support such a conclusion.  Figures 5 and 6 of Fernandez                 
          referred to by the examiner and the specification of Fernandez at           
          column 7, lines 18-67, also referenced by the examiner provide no           
          apparent support for the examiner’s stated position.                        


          Moreover, the examiner’s belated comments in the paragraph                  
          bridging pages 3 and 4 of the answer regarding mounting of the              
          sensor to the frame of the aircraft and also “the trim means                
          (34)” to the frame of the aircraft, along with the conclusion               
          that this arrangement is somehow responsive to the limitations              
          added by claims 19, 23, 27 and 31 are, for the reasons set forth            
          in appellant’s reply brief, untenable.                                      














                                          7
