Hello everyone, I’m looking for a middle gear door for our Ovation. A couple partners were flying a maintenance flight to break in our newly rebuilt engine when they experienced a think upon lowering the landing gear and the circuit breaker triggered. They lowered the landing gear by hand and flew over the tower to ensure the gear was down. After landing it was evident and the metal near the two screws at the front of the middle gear door on the right side had broken through the screw heads. The middle portion of the middle gear door has a fold in it now that allows for some additional flees in the rear portion. Our mechanic has repaired it and certified the repair but we’d like to find another right middle gear door (part #550089-9508)  and maybe the outer and inner doors as well. I’ve called all the major aircraft salvage companies listed in this forum and online to no avail. I’ve also attached some photos of the new gap in the rear of the landing gear. The left side has no gap in the front or back. The right side we now have very little gap in the front.
