Webra Parts unavailable ?

[Clay Schmidt]

Lance,

You may want to try Bob Johnson at www.skylinemodels.co.uk.  He deals in
Webra. Whether or not he handles 160 parts I don't know but he's always been
very helpful when I couldn't get something I needed in the states.  He's
mainly a mail-order heli shop but I know he supports the airplane guys in
the UK also.

Service is top notch.  Never over a week on shipping and shipping cost have
never been over $5-6 for a small package by Royal Mail.

Clay
