  • Landing gear parts

    Tribe,
    I know this is a long shot but does anyone have a complete left front landing gear attach fitting that has never been welded to the airframe? See pic below. It turns out after cleaning some paint off there are 3 cracks in Crispy's forward fitting(everything else looks like it can be straightened pretty easily.
    Thanks,
    Kevin Mays
    PS. I did call the factory and they do have it in stock for $110.00. I would buy it in a heartbeat but they won't ship it C.O.D. Credit card or check only and I'm sorry but I'm not about to chance it.

    Crispy, I just orderd and recived a set of window framws from the factory. Paid with a credit card. They were verry helpful and profesional. If we don't give the new management a chance it will be destined to fail.

        I may be not understanding how all of this is takeing place but Scott said they had nothing to do with Harry. This was the only reason I dared give my credit card number to them. He also assured me that it would not be charged until a UPS tracking number was issued. As you know I am new here and don't know all of the players involved in this whole mess, but since the "reopening" of the factory they have been as good if not better to deal with than many other companies in this indstury.

              Steve Cooner and Scot Ruffner who are now managing Taylorcraft 2000 LLC for Harvey Patrick in Brownsville are in my opinion doing a good job , if they say they will ship , they will!
              They have assured my that as stated they will not swipe the credit card till there is a tracking number, the credit card is the best and only way to order anything these days.
              I am going to work with the FAA and them this week to understand the status of parts in Brownsville. Off today in Alliance, back on Tues....

                Forrest,
                Thanks,the guy I talked to was named Andy and when I asked if he was working for D & E he unsuringly answered yes....but for some reason the way he said it didn't make me feel very comfortable about it.
                By the way,did you get the last email I sent to you last week...it was the last little piece to our puzzle.

                    Thanks Forrest. In my opinion if we don't support our factory now we just may never have one. And personally, I like it when you can call and somone answers the phone.
