Cessna F406 spares

Hi, all. We have some F406`s in need of airframe spares but they are proving impossible to get as, apparently, Reims are not manufacturing anything at the moment.(PT6 engine parts are no problem, of course). Does anyone know of any redundant parts stocks lying around,maybe from an operator that has sold off its 406s? Or are there any other operators who might have found a solution to the same problem?
Thanks.

Schreiner aircraft maintenance (SAMCO) at Maastricht used to look after a number of caravans and might still have spares. Not sure what they are called these days.

Try calling Highland airways, they have the F406 on their books, they must get spares from somewhere. Worked on 406 for many years in Scotland and getting spares from Reims was hard even when they were making them. On a brighter note it was a great place to visit with the wine flowing ever so cheap.
