Fellow-Allegro listers,

  

 Thanks to Hugh for his reply on my "spare parts availability" questions on the Allegro-list.

 I did sent an email with the same questions to sales(at)fantasyairusa.com (sales(at)fantasyairusa.com)  and do hope 

 they will respond to me, being a European Allegro owner.

  

 All together I do have an orphanige feeling, related to the reported an experienced lack of 

 support and lack of customer info from  Fantasy Air and dealers.

  

 The Allegro 2000, I bought one month ago, has a plywood instrument panel. Because of 

 moisture influences (the  plane was hangered in a half open shed) the plywood is partly 

 delaminated.

  

 I would like to replace the panel bij an aluminum part. If I can't buy a blank, or if this piece 

 of sheetmetal appeares to be very expensive, I want to make one myself.

  

 --- What might be the thickness of the designed alu instrument panel?

 --- Is there somewhere a dimensional drawing available of the blank panel, of which 

     I could get a copy?

  

 Thanks for your reply,

                                    Theo van Duin

I received the blank aluminum panel in my kit. I designed and laid out all of my instruments using an Auto Cad program and had the openings for all the instruments and avionics cut on a laser machine. I still have the drawing. I will look to see if I can give you the panel thickness as well as the outline of the blank panel. If you cannot get enough measurments off of your old panel to duplicate it, I’ll try to measure mine. As you will see the top and ends of the panel are a compound curve. I’ll get back in touch with you. As a matter of interest, attached are a few pictures of my panel.
