I have a very late model 1973 L-29 that I'm preparing for sale. Was purchased from the Romanian Air Force in 2006, imported and reassembled. Has flown once. Has C of A, but is in need of annual condition inspection. Looking for offers. 309-781-7686.

HI to the guy in Ca wanting to sell a L29, it would probably be wise to put your phone number so questions could be asked!

I removed the control stick from the L29 referenced by Matt Cole in the other posting on here. It was at AL Sahra (FOB Speicher) in Tikrit Iraq. The plane itself has since been dragged to the dump for scrap. I was wondering if there was anyone interested in purchasing it or would know if there is even a market for it. I have pictures of myself in the plane as well to go with it. I can be emailed at hawkmech67@hotmail.com

I'm working on an L-29 with a flap problem, they will not extend. I think it may be the pressure switch that prevents the flaps from being lowered above 290 knots. The problem is I can't locate it. There are also two relays that cannot be located E20 and E21 in the wiring diagram. If anyone could tell me where these are it would be appreciated.
