    Ken, Unfortunately it would appear to be true. It seems that following an in-flight failure of an Arplast propeller, two disgruntled pilots sued the company. After much too-ing and fro-ing the appeal court at Limoges found for the plaintiffs and imposed punitive damages against Arplast. If you have a moment to spare you can read the court transcript here: http://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affich...7415&fastPos=1 <http://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichJuriJudi.do?oldAction=rechExpJuriJudi&idTexte=JURITEXT000030333161&fastReqId=1592677415&fastPos=1> Following this, the owners immediately shut up shop. Their website, telephone and fax numbers are now all discontinued. A sad end to a good product.

Their website, >> telephone and fax numbers are now all discontinued. >> >> A sad end to a good product. / >> Nigel and all, After some searching on the Web, I found two mentions of a possible solution for the maintenance of Arplast products. http://www.ulmiste.com/#!Arplast-cest-fini%E2%80%A6/csm1/55af96ce0cf25b8bf7ef85f4 http://volerdpm.clicforum.com/t4547-ADIEU-ARPLAST.htm#p41008 According to the latter, an undisclosed French propeller maker could have acquired the molds, etc. FWIW Best regards Gilles http://contrails.free.fr

    Subject: Arplast news
    A Google translation of Nigel's post. Regards Kevin Following the loss of a very long trial, Arplast was placed in receivership. Alain Petit, founder and boss Arplast, one of the few industry professionals who will not be content to sell but will be personally involved in the development of ULM particular via the competition for nearly 40 years, threw in the towel at the age of 71. As for the after-sales service thousands of propellers that rotate, a welcome solution is about to be announced. Sent from my iPhone
