SkyStar
Aircraft Corporation’s quality control has found that the landing gear that
were manufactured during the time period noted above, do not meet our quality
standards for fit.
The affected parts have
improper clearance between the gear weldment and the fuselage mounting brackets.
SkyStar
is requiring a mandatory recall of all Part #35003 and #35004 Landing Gear
Weldments that were manufactured in the noted time frame. Each builder affected
by this Bulletin will receive the proper replacement weldment (Powder Coated
with original color preference if applicable) and will be required to send the
defective landing gear weldments back to SkyStar (within the U.S.).
The
defective parts need to be shipped back in the same package that the replacement
parts arrived in. Please immediately pack the defective weldments in that
package. SkyStar will then have UPS put a “Recall” on that package. UPS will
return, pick up the package, ship it back to
SkyStar, and then bill our
account for the shipping. No RMA numbers are required on this exchange.
Thank
you for your prompt attention in this matter. Please feel free to call our
Customer Service Representatives at (208) 466-1711 if you have any questions..
NOTE:
For
those builders who are not in the United
States we ask that you cut the defective weldments
up. photograph the destruction, and please mail the photographs to:
