Hatch Latch available?

Post by SUNDBY »

Does anyone know if the Hatch Latch is available. Johnny was working on a repalacement a few years ago....that's the last I have heard. Anyone have an extra set laying around they might be willing to part with? How about skycatch?

Johnny Williams has the male portion of the Hatch Latch available in stainless steel and it works very fine. The female portion is comprised very nicely of the original Tinnerman nut which Cessna used in the door. He's in the Directory.
