Ha, I just went to your photo folder Fred, and saw the door locks. Yup, just like mine, and they work great. I also like your door prop too, pretty cool. I have the stabilizer tips you gave me sanded and primed, right along side of the spinner and wheel pants. My goal is all spiffed ready to show for Arlington Fly-In the first week of July. Speaking of spiffed, your plane is goregous, neat as a pin. I will post new pics when painted, then post speed runs.

Thats great. I look forward to seeing your plane all dressed up. Hope you win at Arlington.
Thanks for the compliment on my plane. Some times I feel a little embarassed on how beautiful my plane is especially when parked beside other ultralights. But I am getting used to it. (not a bad problem EH!)
I guess I am a bit biased with the design.

Dumb question. Where does one buy those locks?
Thanks, John

It says in one of the photos that they are Home Depo drawer locks.

Hi John
Yes they are just homedepot drawer locks.
I was told that if you went through the whole drawer of locks at the store you could be lucky and find two locks keyed the same. It didn't work that way for me so I have two different keys. It only took a few minutes to install.

I got mine at a True Value harware store. They are cabinent locks, and about 5 bucks.

Probably the same as the True Value ones.
