C120 door hinges

Post by 8387 »

There were C120 door hinges available through the club website; does anyone know if they are still available. Not the Univair ones at $$$$$!

I tried to PM the member who used to sell the hinges, but my PM outbox doesnt work so if anyone can help, please could you e mail at

iancmills@gmail.com

Many thanks

Ian

What do you mean by "doesn't work"? If the message stays in your outbox it means the recipient hasn't read it yet.

I've vague recollection that Mike had offered his design and materials to anyone who might desire to market the hinges after he'd sold his own 140 & moved on to other aviation endeavors. I don't recall that anyone actually did take him up on the offer. That said, I don't know whether or not the hinge "kit" is available...from Mike or from anyone. In any event, below is an excerpt from his website and I note that the phone # is the same as his "hinge ad" on our site. A great guy and gifted, experienced aviation engineer -- I'm confident that you can count on him to help if the contact still works and if he still has the materials. Mac
