Hi Darryn,
Sorry, I forgot we talked before!
Every american pilot should experience the visibility in New Zealand. Very beautiful country. I should have told you that I spent 3 months in Christchurch during "Operation Deep Freeze '72" with the U.S. Navy. (Please don't hold that against me, I wasn't the typical Yank!)
Does the CAA recognize American "Yellow Tags"? I'll contact a couple of salvage yards near me and see what they'd charge to ship a good leg to New Zealand. Send me your aircraft serial number, just to be sure, although I'm sure the flat legs are all the same.
--------------------------
Update: I've E-mailed 2 Florida yards and 1 in Ohio that may have a used gear leg. I checked the Cessna dealors on the web for comparison prices, and they don't have any in stock, as you've doubtless found out. I couldn't get a price listing. I'll post the results as soon as I hear something from the others.
Carl
