I am looking for a strobe flasher "C594501-0203" This is for an old strobe. If anyone has one please contact me flyhi...@yahoo.com
I found a used one at "Aircraftpartsc.com" but may have a error in my order.  Has anyone done business with this company?
This is for a rebuild Cessna 172 that the LaPorte Aero Club is renewing for sale and will support our annual schlorships.

Thank you
AlanG

Contact Dallas Parts Salvage.
I assume you looked on Ebay already?
There are a few buy and sell aircraft groups on FB.
Are they trying to keep it all original or why not just put a new LED strobe on it?

eBay had two, one was good for parts. The other one was a 24 V. A new LED stroke would be nice but the cost of five to $600. we’re trying to stay away from. We’ve already spent more than what I think this airplane is worth.

Not really. We will make money on this but Fischer wants to start at $110,000. No avionics, no transponder. Radios are original. Not sure what we have in it right now. 55 to 65 maybe 70. But Barry and Bruce have a lot of hours in this and good thing they are donating that time. Art and I have been helping but not like them. Again, a few are doing the work. Bruce and Barry will probably not do this again. Dale does the buy search and sale activity, so he helps.

I just sold 66lima for 83k.
It was pretty nicely equipped.
The lady is flying pants off of it.
It's in LA Porte again.
La Porte.  Tx.
Is that weird or what??

Love it! Came back home, that’s pretty cool. Our 172 is nice but not as good as yours.

Got an alternate number that should work. $100 , not too bad. 
Thanks
