Hank,
I sent them an e-mail request earlier this morning for a quote. One thing I
learned is not to tell them it is being installed on an airplane. A lot of
companies won't sell to you for that purpose even though it is the identical
part. When you buy from an aircraft vendor you pay $50 for the part and $100
for them taking the risk that their $50 part is the one your widow says
deprived her of her companion and cash flow. You want cheaper healthcare?
Establish a maximum amount of worth for being dead. Ten million dollars
would be a bargain!
