>>>>>[If you're serious, and don't mind a legit job, then I got an
oddball request.

I need a low-hours lower-wing-skin for a A-4M Skyhawk. Got the rest of
the bird fully restored (and the next project started already) but she's
life-expired for any _real_ flying. Museums, boneyards, warehouses,
scrapyards, there's gotta be *one* around. Maxim Arms were looking, but
since Velli retired they're not players any more. Otherwise, I guess
it's the Zipper instead of the Scooter.

Find me a late-model Skyhawk lower wing (got to be set up for the
leading-edge slats and manoeuvre flaps) with less than a thousand hours
on it, and I'll pay you >>noticeable sum<<.

Interested?]<<<<<
