CT2K Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 Hi Gentlemen, Long time no hear, I hope all of you guys are fine and doing well. Checking my CT2K after a flight today I noticed that the fairing of the right hand wheel of the main gear has fallen off during flight. The left hand wheel faring is still in place. Any ideas where I can have a chance to find one? Would it be possible to build a right hand fairing based on the left hand one (by reversing the image)? Many thanks in advance.

Tom Baker Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 Someone along your route of flight might have one. Trying to make a reverse image mold from the left fairing would be a tremendous amount of work, even if you had a Right fairing to make a mold off of it would still be a lot of work. I would check with Flight Design or look to the salvage market to get a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrassStripFlyBoy Posted December 16, 2019 Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 Does your GPS have "trails" function turned on, if the flight was a short trip and terrain / airspace allows for lower level flight, I'd be flying the track a few times and attempt to spot it.

CT2K Posted December 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Hi Gentlemen, Thanks for your replies and thoughtful advice. Unfortunately I wasn't on GPS that day. It was a local flight only a few miles away from base, and it was horribly windy, so I guess when the pant detached it must have flown quite a distance away from track. Again thanks.
