Brake parts are readily available from Sam Goldman of Salsbury, MD. TBM tail hooks are alost impossible to find. We ended up replicating one and many owners use the more common Corsair hooks instead. Joe Toubul ended up making replicas of the rockets and he told me that they were not too bad to manufacture. They looked pretty good. If you were to make a run of these, I think several owner/ operators would be interested. Also, try Don Keller of Air Depot in OR.
: Does anyone know of a possible source for the following?
:
: 1. TBM tail hook and mounting hardware.
:
: 2. 5 inch H.V.A.R.'s (inert assemblies, really good repli
: cas, or parts to replicate). We need eight of them!
:
: 3. TBM brake parts.
:
: 4. Wing mounted AN/APS4 radar assy. sway braces. (We have
: the radar, just need the braces).
:
: We have tried Warbird Parts and Memorabelia, Banaire, and
: a few others. Any leads would be most appreciated, thanks!
