JLS --

Tell her that -- believe it or not -- it *is* legal for the owner of an
aircraft to make parts for his/her own certified airplane. Natch, it has to
be installed and/or blessed by an A&P (to be legal ...), but at least that's
some savings. "I'm not making this up."

Yeah, and it's just a little U-Shaped piece of steel plate about .020

thick
and hardly bigger than a dime. Tres incroyable.

Well, maybe I couldn't make it for that, and besides, it's got to be an
official Cessna part, or pma'd. The other one broke, and when I told the
owner/a&p it had to be replaced she commenced the most unladylike cussing.
