Hi All,

Not sure if this will be the right forum but we shall see. The company I work for has just won a tender to rebuild a Cessna 180 and a 185. Both of these aircraft require a left wing. I have searched the internet but so far have had no feed back from the companies I contacted. We also need a left wheel strut for the 185.

If any one can help, it would be greatly appericated.

Cheers

One wouldn't happen to be the one that lost the left wheel strut on take-off and landed at Barton????

No, both these aircraft were involved in accidents in Southern Africa, the 185 had an engine failure in Tanzania during locust spraying and the 180 had an engine failure during an survey flight over one of the game parks in Zambia. Both times the Pilots did a great job considering they were only at 100ft agl.

It might be an idea to give Paul Nalson Aviation a ring 01883 340062 ( one of the biggest UK breakers )

or try contacting these people
