Hi Tom I have bought turnbuckles from B&B aircraft. They sell them by the piece but if you give them the AN numbers from the ACS cataloge they will send you what you need. They are also not shiny new pieces like ACS's they seem to be new/old stock but perfectly fine hardware. I forget what the last ones I bought for the drag wires in my wings cost but I'm thinking like 8 bucks a piece. They are also great people to work with. Ed G.

Try B&B Supply, they usually have the best prices. Last number I have for them is (913-884-5930). No website that I know of.ChrisSacramento, CAWestCoastPiet.com ----- Original Message -----

I remember that story and I can believe it. I fly a Champ and the only difficult thing about learning to fly it was getting it to stay down on the runway when landing. they just want to keep flying. EdDate: Tue=2C 7 Apr 2009 09:12:04 -0700

I spoke to Dan the other day and he only has fork ends at the moment and the longturnbucklesWould it be ok to use the fork end in place of the cable eye and are others usingthe long or short?They wont post overseas so I need to order all that I need in one goDan is a very nice fellow I think the 1/2 hour on the phone chatting would havecost about as much as 1 turnbuckle.He also said he would be at OSH.CarsonRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________
