when a deal presents itself.... buy it

Well, it was worth it heading south.

Took a side trip before a concert at the casino and met with my new friend Jim who was selling off some aircraft parts inventory.

Managed to pick up a bunch of stuff that I'll need for my build and at excellent prices.

From the top row, 2 bottles of EkoEtch and cleaner used for prepping aluminum for primer/paint.

Next row down from the top, 2 master brake cylinders for the rudder pedals on the pilot (left) side and a single master cylinder for the right side rudder pedals (I'll need a second one to match, this one I think was used as a hand brake).

On the white tissue paper and hard to see, 2 clear plexiglass window vents and associated hardware.

On the bottom row, 2 Matco axles and matching brake calipers.  These were the model used on early 750 aircraft, but have since been superseded by a larger diameter version.  Ron can use these on the 701 build which they are still the standard.

Very happy with my purchases!
