Hello everyone, Cecilia Henderson again.  First let me say thank you for the outpouring of condolences we have received from all of you.  We miss Jerry very much and your kind words soothe our otherwise miserable souls.   

Now for an update.  There is a lot of interest in purchasing our intellectual properties which leaves me very optimistic that Brittain will live on in some form or fashion long after the "Walters" have left the building.  Doing all I can from here to insure a quality buy and ongoing support for the Brittain product line.  We have put together a prospectus and are entertaining all offers over $40,000.00 for the next few weeks then we will make a determination of which deal is the best fit for all involved.  If you are interested in purchasing a small autopilot company give me a call or drop me an email.  We are also selling our machine/metal shop separately from the IP.   

Meanwhile we are in full liquidation mode as our property is leased and we must vacate the building by April 1st.  We have about 60 seals for the Mooney aileron and rudder servo assemblies which we are liquidating as "seal kits".  Many of you remember a time when all Brittain offered was a seal kit that allowed you to repair your own servos.  Although the FAA frowns on this approach our situation has obviously changed so get them while they are available.  Each "kit" comes with a seal, safety strap, O-ring and new compression nut.  Each will also come with a four page specification on how to re-assembly the unit.  We are asking $100.00 each for these kits, credit card or Paypal only.  Please do not try to change out your seals while the servo is still installed in the airframe. Proper removal of the servo followed by re-build and re-installation is recommended for best results.   

We also have a few "button valves" (on/off yoke valves) and pilot valves in repaired state which we are discounting and selling "as removed" (with no maintenance release) and if you already have an Accu-Trak system (i.e. if you already have a servo control valve P/N 20464-200) and are interested in adding heading command (B-12 Accu-Flite) we have one remaining system, less the DG, in new production (DG Adaptor, Accu-Flite on/off switch and cable, installation manuals, flight manuals and STC included.  G502A directional gyro not included). 

Sorry fellas but we sold out of the step servo seal so they are not currently available.  All hope is not lost though as the tooling has been secured and new ownership can bring this repair line back up within a matter of weeks upon close of a deal, so once again, please be patient with us.

Thanks again for all the kind words and the endless support the Mooney community provides us.  Please don't hesitate to reach out to us during this transition, if we can assist you we will be happy to do so. 

Very Sincerely,

Cecilia Henderson
