Hugh;
I have learned that Allegro LSA has perhaps more than a few sets of
wheel pants. If you haven't already contacted Doug, and you're still in
need, try calling him or ask for Ross. I have no idea how and whether
they can or will sell them. I'm also informed that the same pants have
been used since day one, and they are getting ready to make new ones,
apparently from the original molds.

Jeff,
I just called Allegro LSA (Doug Hempsted and Company) and spoke to Ross.
They do have some in stock and I have ordered one (the left main). I did
not ask him if they were used or new. What do you mean the pants
=9Chave been used since day one=9D? By the way, do you
hanger an Allegro 2000 at Gilliam-McConnell? We drop in at the
Pik-in-Pig on Saturdays every now and then, and I noticed an Allegro
2000 in a hanger across the runway from the restaurant. Thanks for the
info.

Fantasy Air (which may be impossible now) anyone out there have extra
wheel pants for an Allegro 2000? Suggestions?
