Re: Bungee Question

New thread here for potentially a future batch order, so this thread closed for the meantime.

Re: Bungee Question

We did. I will take a close look at the ones in the paper holder. I am betting it is two OLD ones.

Re: Bungee Question

If i remember you rolled two off and cut two when you changed them.

Re: Bungee Question

Tom,
I was out at the airport today and there was ONE side worth of new bungees in my store room. Don't remember which part number, but we bought them in full sets and I don't know where this package came from. No one was missing any so I just put them in a cool dry corner shelf figuring I would take a look later. Which part number did you need? I will scout around and see if there is a full set. We bought extras but I don't remember now how many. I thought we sold all the extras off.

Hank

I will probably check next time out and find out they are the old ones stuck in a holder for the new ones. ;-)

Re: Bungee Question

Hello Hank: Just reaffirming with you that i am on the list for new shock cords when you make the next order. I want to replace mine now so I guess I will get them from Univair etc. Thanks and I hope all well with you. Tom

Re: Bungee Question

Looks like this is something that needs to be done every two years. I am starting a new list for the next buy, but it may be a while before we reach the price break point again. I will put your name on the new list as a potential buyer. When we hit the price break we will make another buy.
If you need a set NOW, PM me and we will set something up to keep you in the air.

Hank please add me to the list. Thanks,

Re: Bungee Question

OK, one way or another, the post war ones are all gone. Two sets of pre-war still available (if the original guys ordering them don't step forward, now). Did anyone who paid NOT get theirs? Last chance!

Re: Bungee Question

Re: Bungee Question

So far only 2. Not something you use often, but when you need it, nothing else will do! Had to make a change on the firewall for my IA and I probably would have lost 4 or 5 days before I could have gotten back out with something from the fastener supplier. Not a single one the right size in my "misc" box, but the perfect thing in that sandwich bag!
The guys on this group are life savers.

As soon as I get the bungees on it looks like she will be ready to breath fire again. Photos to follow (got to get time from the FAA contract now).

Re: Bungee Question

Hank, I got my delivery, so have you used any of that hardware? Tim

Re: Bungee Question

Folks, I wanted to check with all those who ordered bungees. They were all mailed out the last week of July and should all be in your hands now. If you paid for bungees and DID NOT get them SPEAK UP! There are a few sets left that folks asked for, I paid for, and I was never got a check or mailing label. If no one chimes in I will check what PNs I have and they will go up for grabs.

Chris, yours are waiting for you in NY with the door drawings and an "extra" two goodies in the box for you plane. I can't find the card the "donor" gave me but he is pretty excited to hear about how his "find" looks on an airplane. I will send his contact info as soon as I find it.

Bird, I know you have been tied up with the job here so yours are here and I am holding them for you.

For all others, we should probably think about doing this every couple of years. If we can set it up so the manufacturer can schedule his products through the line, we may be able to keep him in business for the long run and keep the price down. I showed a guy from the Cub club how we did it and they may try too. Looks like a good deal for everyone if we keep it coordinated. Cubs have a standing recommendation that the bungees get changed every 5 years, but they are in a little more hostile environment than our are.

Re: Bungee Question

Two people who missed out on the original order have asked for bungees sets. The only really fair way to do this is to go "first come, first served" on the extra ones I bought.
I will pass the extras to the first people who send their checks in and return the checks that come in too late. I will keep everyone posted on when they are all sold.

Hank

Next step is for us to find all the bungee tools and get together for some bungee parties! I think we are are going to need to buy some more tools!

Re: Bungee Question

Matt,
The orders are already in and the bungees are being built. That's the bad news.

The good news is we had a few guys who never paid or sent their address forms in so there are a few sets left over! Your plane should need the 9010HDs which are $72.15 a set which includes shipping. I am at

Hank Jarrett
805 Kings Creek Drive
Virginia Beach, VA 23464.

The form is attached (we actually use the form top as your address label, so make sure it is legible!)but we forgot to add phone numbers to it so please put yours on the bottom so I can call you if there is a problem.

For the rest of the group, I got phone numbers from a bunch of checks and some just put theirs on the form. I do not have numbers for Gary Austin, Lawrence Bugg, Carl Carson, Louie Chanpeau, Mike Lazarowicz, Harold Schwab, mike Wood, or Richard Young. There weren't any problems with any of those orders so it wasn't a big deal but it would be nice ot have a number in the database in case an order gets returned.

For the guys who didn't get their forms or checks in, I paid for them and will be selling off the extras. You each got multiple messages asking if you were still interested. I am hesitant to post names here of those we bought for and didn't send the forms or checks but in case a letter was lost in the mail I never heard from Mike Cushway, Mike Redpath and Clayton Roney. You need to contact me or your bungees will be sold to the next late order person in line.

Hank
