Marauder Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 Hey had a great flight to lake Charles, la this weekend. great weather good flying. unfortunately, the fixed step up into the plane broke when i stepped on it. Anyone know where and how much for a replacement, anyone just remove it ? Mine was removed. Other than making for a bigger step up into the plane, I have never missed having one.

ArtVandelay Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 Honestly I didn’t know if any of the fixed steps still existed, most have been removed, mine by PO. Quote

Hank Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 (edited) I use my fixed step twice per flight, more with pax. When the PO had a gear up (2003?), it was replaced. Edited April 1, 2018 by Hank Quote
Piloto Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 The step should be kept for those passenger unfamiliar or of limited walking ability or kids. Falling into the ramp can ruin your day, keep it, is there for a reason. José 1 Quote
carusoam Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Honesty may not be the best policy... I think I saw marauders girls checking out your plane... (better?) consider a used replacement part? @acpartswhse, @Alan Fox Consider a new part... Lasar.com. Dan in parts... Best regards, -a- Quote
M20F-1968 Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Why did it break - Corrosion? If there corrosion in the step there may be elsewhere. Not trying to be an alermist but I would take a close look. John Breda Quote
