By the way, after having lived here on the Arkansas/Texas border for the past 18 years, I just discovered Texas Air Salvage is located about 2 miles from my house...was looking at their website and noticed the address!

Funny how that works, John. I am the same way. I have lived here 30 years and just gone back and forth to work and to church, Kroger, Walmart and the other usual places and missed a lot of things.

Got my gust lock from Texas Air Salvage. It was reported to be from a 1977 C150 which worked out great since that's what I have. I will say that it looks like it sat out in the desert for the past 30 years. It's in pretty rough shape but a little emery cloth and it will be fine. I just don't like sticking rusty parts on my airplane even if it's only a gust lock! Might try to find another sticker for the warning panel on it. It's peeling off.

Mark If you have it powder coated it will look great and last much longer than paint and it would not be that expensive. Take a picture of the sticker that is on the gust lock and carry it to a vinyl sign shop and they can make you a new one. Most shops now have a color vinyl printer that can make most any kind of sticker you may need.

If you have the owner and parts manuals (which I think you now do) there are sharp copies of all the placards and most decals in the front of the book. Pretty sure you will find the yoke gust lock there.

With a mile of highway, you can go one mile. With a mile of runway, you can go just about anywhere.
