All-

     Can anyone provide the ACS part  no. for the NACA cabin fresh air scoops? You know, the ones that you mount over  triangular holes in the forward fuse side skins.

     Thanks.

Bill,

 

 I don't see anything in ACS that closely resembles the ZAC inlet; and they are $20 to $80.  The ZAC part is 6B20-4 and two of them cost $11.10.

Jay-

     Thanks- you can navigate through  the Zenith site better than I can. Speaking of which- can you find the latch  assemblies for the canopy? I thought they came with the lock, but not  so.

                                                                                      Bill

Van's Aircraft has them too at a pretty good price.  Quality is good.

Leo-

    Where in the heck did you get the drawing? I don't even have a "B" 

section in my prints!

    Out of curiosity, how many pages of prints did you get, and how many 

pages in the builder's manual? I swear I didn't get a complete set of 

either. Not that it really matters at this point.

Bill,

 

 You weren't specific, so I have to assume that you are talking about an XL style canopy on your HDS.  My XL drawings call out a Latch Casing P/N 1185K.  The ZAC parts list for an XL canopy shows Non-Locking Latch Assembly P/N 6C4; and Locking Latch Assembly P/N 6C4-1 Locking.

Like others on the list, I got mine from Van's.  Great quality, complete 

kit except for the rivets and gasket material.  I ended up using a 

little more than a foot of the supplied six feet of scat tubing, so be 

sure to plan ahead if you're going that route.

Larry-

     As in 6G-..., 6S-...? None. Leo's  drawing was the first I ever saw of a 6B-. 

     You cruise along through the manual and  all of a sudden fall off the edge of the earth! If it weren't for the old-timers  on the list I would have been dead in the water 2 years ago. I spend an easy 4  hours researching for every hour I spend building.

Jay-

     Yes, I'm converting from side to  forward opening.

     That's what threw me, too. I got  the locking latch assembly, but all it consists of is the handle. I also  have the print reference to the latch casing, but can't find a  listing on the Zenith site. I have an e-mail in to Zenith but probably  should have called- now I won't find out until Monday.

                                                                                          Bill

Bill,

I also fabricated some of the Zenith scoops.  Zenith did not send the drawings to builders.  I got mine from the Zenith website.  Zenith was good about posting stuff to the website and not notifying builders



I debated about using the Van's scoops but decided not to because they are plastic and I did not know how long they would last here in Arizona.

My drawings included the vent drawing but I bought the plastic ones  

from Zenith. (I'm Lazy) About 12 bucks as I remember.

Bill,

I have an early front hinge canopy that I adopted to my HDS.  The latch that was supplied was pretty primitive.  After viewing the HomeBuilt Help videos of Mr. Croke, I decided I wanted that type of latch but I couldn't bring myself to pay the Zenith price.  (Don't really know why)



I ended up at a camper shell place that had a bunch of hardware for old campers.  I obtained a locking T-handle latch and some misc. hardware that I adapted to canopy.  Cost was approximately $10.  that doesn't include the time searching on the internet and the time and mileage visiting RV places around here.  It works great.  Not sure I would do it again.
