 |
|
Since there has been alot of talk about door latches I thought I'd check my boxes to see what I had. My kit is aClassic 4 Speedster manufactured in 09/94. The pieces I have for the door latches are not the same part #s as listed and shown in the manual,in fact the pages are from "The Denny Aeroplane Co". There is a suppemental page that came with it that has diagrams of the part #s I have and measurements to make the latches.Well, pilots and engineers do not speak the same language,and I having a hard time trying to figure it out. Also, nowhere does it same where they are to be installed or how. If anyone has a picture or a diagram the can send or anything other ideas on the speedster door latch it would really help. On list or off list is fine. Leon Morris/Classic 4 (94)/ 60%/ Flower Mound, TX

Leon, your kit came out of the factory the same month my classic 4 did...9-94. I remember the door latch instructions did not match the parts I was supplied. If I remember right I talked with the factory people and they sent me the new correct instructions to match the parts. I will check my building notes and take a picture and get back to you on this to see if yours is the same situation.

Okay, I,m back with some door latch info. My 1994 Classic 4 manual was delivered with one page of door latch instructions from Denny aerocraft that no way resemble the parts shown.
The attached pictures show the latch and the first page of the five pages of instructions I received later that match the parts shown. The parts include a round black plastic knob that I did not install. Leon, let me know if you need hard copies of these instructions.

Thanks Tom for the quick response.The pictures should help me figure it out. I'm still haven't figured out the striker plate yet.The instructions might help in that aspect,as I can't figure how it is fabricated.--- Leon/Classic 4 Speedster
