[rebel-builders] Parts sales
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 4:56 pm
Hi Craig !
The windshields still come from Murphy - as do engine mounts,
cowling, engines, propellers, and all the parts. Murphy owns
the tooling to make the windshields, and all the extrusions,
so you can only buy them from Murphy. The other suppliers
are wholesalers, and prefer to sell only to manufacturers -
they really aren't set up to deal with the public.
The only parts that will eventually come from suppliers
will be off-the-shelf hardware like nuts & bolts, rivets, etc.
We are still working through some of the existing inventory,
so it might be a while...

Hi Bob,
Nice job on the site so far. We need to get more USA planes on
there.....we're not very well represented. I'm working on it. Riveted
tail cone skins tonight.
I'm going to need a windshield for my rebel. At an air show up here last
May, the company that makes them for Murphy wouldn't sell me one because
they agreed to not compete with MAM. It seems with MAM's new business
model, that wouldn't be the case now. Can you shed any light on this?
How are we doing on amphib orders?
Thanks, Craig
PS we bought our plane tickets for Oshkosh so that should be awesome.

Hi All !
I've added a couple of urgent Tech Tips from the factory,
and the first FlightLines is up. Please send pics & stories -
I'll get them up as I am able .... This is a LOT of work
for a web newbie ! http://www.murphyair.com
Check back often .... and send your friends !
We need to get more Murphy kits flying ! ;-)
I've also started on the plans for Rebel Ramble '09 -
hoping that we will be able to do it ! The first page is
up, at: http://prosumers.ca/Ramble09
Please download the Ramble Flyer - the dates are still
a bit flexible --- but you will need July, and part of September
for the whole "Ramble to Both Coasts" !! Of course, you
can fly along for just a day or 2 if you want. :-)
