We needed a flap for our Aztec. I called a guy that is in the business of
rebuilding flaps and ailerons. A used/rebuilt/newly skinned Aztec flap runs
$2800, plus a $250 deposit on the shipping crate. He offered us $1000 for
our wrecked flap. We found a used flap from Wentworth in like new condition
for $1200, that was the best price we could find.

Since we're not talking about a lot of money, I may just insure it for
liability. If the boys crash the plane, oh-well, it wasn't an enourmous
amount of money to begin with. Besides, it never, ever stops amazing me
how much wrecked airplanes go for. I saw a flap off a Bonanza go for
almost $500.


That's because they are over $3K new.
