BeechTalk - BT - FS: I Hope you don't need a left elevator for an A-36

This elevator served in an interim role as my A-36 elevator was being reskinned (due to a bullet hole) and I'm glad I had it during the re-skinning period.

This was sourced earlier in 2024 from a salvage yard in AZ.
I had it visually inspected by an ABS member AP/IA and he felt it was serviceable.

Part# 33-610000-609 (includes trim tab)
I've included overall pictures and pictures of the 3 flaws.
In my hangar now in Birmingham, AL.

$3500 (less than I paid for it)
I don't have a crate, but, it will fit in the back of your A-36.

If you need one, I feel your pain, if you don't need one...you may someday.

I have to ask. What locality were you in when you got shot? It would make sense to just acquire this. These parts may not be available forever.

The plane was in Birmingham, AL in the T-hangar, probably 250' from the nearest road.

We speculate it was 'celebratory shooting'. The bullet hole was clearly evident in the roof of the hangar and the 9mm FMJ projectile was recovered.

During the process of the re-skinning at SRS, I did ask Textron for a new elevator price. to make a longer story short, they declined to give me a price on a new one.

Black Friday Special....... Take $100 off if purchased by Dec 15th!!!

If you give this as a Xmas present, I'll throw in some gift wrapping! (of course, with a large red bow... cheaper than a Lexus!)

If you do ship it , use instapack foam in a wood crate

Greyhound is a good source for shipping

Guy, I think that Greyhound ceased their package shipment operations on Sept. 30, 2022.

While they never were the fastest, they were certainly the cheapest way to send an oversized partial.

Since Santa gave other gifts than this A-36 LH elevator, I had to return the giant red bow.....you wouldn't believe the restocking charge!

Still available and I hope I can find it a very good (needy) home!

Dumb question, will this work on an F33? I may or may not need an interim, also local at North Pickens.

Tax Refund Special....
According to You Tube sources, the average Federal Tax refund is approx. $3,240 dollars..

From now through 'Tax Day' you can have 'money left over' with a $3,000 A-36 elevator to boot!
