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.

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. Hugh G. McKay III, P.E.
