Buccsoc,
Are you sure you mean Anti g straps? Do you not mean Negative G straps?
Thanks for correcting me dees01.
As for Thunder City, ever tried getting Blood from a Stone!!!! Still awaiting a tailplane pivot bearing that they were going to send to us, only been waiting a year so far!!!

Have you tried the guys at Thunder City? Seeing as how they have 3 airworthy beasts, they may have some non fligthworthy parts for the seats…
