RCA Flybacks from CTC-11 to CTC 16 are all electrically the same. With some hay wiring you can make them work. What I did was to mark the leads with the schematic in front of me so I know where to connect the wires in the destination set. Back in the day when RCA were smoking flybacks with the 3A3 plate cap on the donut I was using flybacks with plate cap leads. A little time consuming but hay if its on the shelf use it! Doogie

Yes, I remember seeing Thordarson Fly277's with plate cap leads being used where a FLY308 should've gone - for the strict reason that the 3A3 would no longer rest in the fly. Made me scratch my head at first, but the set worked!
Still, I've never seen a bad Fly308 in a set, but would probably make the change if I had the opportunity. Cheers,
