P92JS Lower engine cowling camlock

[eloigorri]

I have lost one of the camlocks on my P92JS which secures the lower engine cowling. There are normally two of these either side of the steering well.

 

Does anyone know what type they are? I contacted Tecnam, but they want more then 10 times the cost of the part in shipping as they will only ship out via DHL, not regular post.

 

I am sure this is a simple part obtainable from Aircraft Spruce or the like, but there are many to choose from, and the parts manual only gives Tecnam’s internal part number for it.

 

Any suggestions appreciated.

 

Cheers -E

Sorry, can not help you,have not got that close to the P92's, one of the originals should have its numbers on it so you can find the right size from that.

Thanks for the suggestion.

 

I managed to locate a spare locally, and am in the process of repairing the cowling.

 

The damage was originally caused by a local storm, which threw a brick at the cowling, so some fibreglass work is also requried before I can refit the camlock.

 

Thanks for the feedback everyone.
