Two or three weeks' training would have been necessary to fly the A380 of course and that's why you've been busy. Just too darn modest to admit it! GREAT to see you back!

    Subject: Need cheap plastic Commander part
    --> Commander-List message posted by: "Moe" <moe@rosspistons.com> Gents, I am in need of an odd-ball part (about 100 feet of it) for my 1963 680F(p). The part is not listed in any of the Commander parts books that I have. We have tried trimmer supply houses, hardware store, regular upholstery supply houses here in the Los Angeles area. Along the both sides of the cabin at about elbow level there is a strip of plastic about 3.5" wide (the one that the ashtrays are in) which were made to look like leather. This plastic is called a "utility panel" in the parts book and is inset in an aluminum extrusion. It is held to the aluminum extrusion by two runners or plastic "U" shaped moldings that are glued to the utility panel and snap over two protrusions in the extrusion. The needed "U" shaped moldings are .450 major width, .230 high, and inside width .290. Any advice on a source of supply would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Moe Mills N680RR

I plan to deliver my plane to the paint shop in Tucson on May 27th, and they told me to expect it to take about 4 to 5 weeks to complete. Can you e-mail a photo of the moldings you're looking for? I can keep my eyes open for something that might work for you.
