Your set of latches is in its envelope and will be sent today from Spain. It might take a few days until they are there.

Kai,

I received a set of your latches today and I can't thank you enough. Fantastic quality and sure to last for as long as I have my plane.

Thanks again....

Thanks for letting me know they were well received. I am glad you like them.

I have just sent another 20 pieces for glass blasting and hope to have them back next week. If anybody needs another set, just pm or email me your shipping address.

Hi
I just paid $74 for a genuine one, before i found this wonderful site!
Please advise what an appropriate donation is, want to help out, and a couple of those latches would suit a treat!!

Hi Carl -

Check the donations page (link) which lists other donations.

Also check this sticky (link) for a sense of Kai's ongoing costs. Note that while Kai certainly appreciates any donations, none are required. He's crazy that way. :D

Hi Chris,
Yep, found my way to the donations page, and happily donated. What a great resource, got me up to speed on ADS-B, and the weight and balance 'issues' these aircraft have.

I just purchased a 2007 Diamond DA40XL and got it home last night. Mid-way through the 10 hour flight home, the latch broke on the left-hand side. I'd love to get a set of "permanent" latches as well.

Kai, I own a hosting company and would be more than happy to provide a dedicated server or shared hosting account at no cost to help reduce the operating expenses for this site.

Mark,

In order to receive a set of latches, please, pm or email me your address and I will send them right away.

Also, thanks for the generous offer. Although we have just had a year of extensively moving and restructuring DAN , I wiĺl gladly take your offer. Most DAN members are based in the US and it would make DAN even faster to access.
