Hotrod, New to the site and I am in the process of purchasing a 55' 180 that has a cargo sling seat currently in it but no STC paperwork. I did a search for info and it seems that Alaska skycraft has the STC per FAA but they went out of business. I noticed on the site that some time ago you mentioned having the STC paperwork. Wondering if you still have it or know where to find it STC# SA651?2024-05-07 00:39:18 -

Hey Eric, I hope you have been well! What have you been doing?
Yes I still have my places in Troutdale, Madras and Pacific City. We just had enough of months of gray mist and drizzly. After 60 Oregon winters, I got the winter sports out of my system. Cheers Rob2023-02-21 22:16:44 -
