Subject: [LML] Unbelievable resolution to missing out flow valve

  At the (appreciated) advice of&= nbsp;a LML=20 subscriber this past weekend, I found a used outflow valve at a salvage yar= d for=20 $2500, far better than the current $10,400 price for new.  I called=20 Michelle @ Lancair Monday afternoon to verify it was the right part number = and=20 got her voice mail (left a message).  I found a message Mond= ay=20 night on my cell phone that after some more research at the factory, s= he=20 had "good news" for me on the valve.  Expecting she was going to tell = me=20 she found it had been shipped "way back when" (and I already knew I didn't = have=20 it in my shop), I was not getting my hopes up.
 
   Well, her good news was t= hat Lancair=20 went through all my files and clearly verified I was never shipped the= =20 valve.  They are going to provide me a new one at NO CHARGE.  Fou= rteen=20 years (to the month) later, completely different ownership, and they are=20 covering a $10,400 valve not shipped with the original kit. 
 
This is=20 unbelievable!! 
 
   To be clear, I never expe= cted anything=20 from the factory.  I am sure when Lancair was bought many years ago, t= here=20 was no outstanding "payable" stated on the books for this, so covering this= is=20 essentially new ownership stepping up "above and beyond".
 
I just wanted to give credit where cre= dit is=20 due!
