I am wanting to purchase a PIC (that's left) side RAF clear, door. I had damage occur while trailering my gyro a short distance and quite secured. The door was closed and locked. Apparently one small bump allowed the door to slide upwards through the rod ends,the oncoming relative wind swung the door backwards, scratched body some, and broke in half, that have never to be found. So is anyone out here has a door they would part with withough bending me over too much, it will save me some money as opposed to buying from SA. I don't need a lecture, just a door. This design flaw exists on all RAFs and it's a very simple fix. I viewed the tapes and saw nothing mentioned to prevent this from happening. I will also inform the factory. Thanks, John

Dear Mark,
the doors arrived today, they are in excellent condition and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I noticed a well made set of door locks but I found no key included in the parcel. Did you include it and if not could you mail it to me please? It will save me taking the locks off and going to a locksmith. My phone number is 603-744-6232. Thanks again, John

Great to see you found the doors, the other source I had just doesn't seem very responsive. He has some other parts I'm interested in but doesn't return emails.

I wasn't smart enough to ask for his phone number, wo I guess I'll have to write him a letter ans ask if he has the key for the door. You have been a great help and saved me much money, I will forever be indebted for your help, thanks, John
