nightsta1ker Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 I need a supplier who has a set of new belts PN: 269A5512-5. I also need a new door latch. Anyone know a good supplier or have any on hand? Willing to pay top dollar for them! Quote
copter doctor Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 You can try HRAD Group in Salina ks. haven't been there in 3 years but they have a web-site www.hradgroup.com Quote
nightsta1ker Posted June 6, 2012 Author Posted June 6, 2012 Been on their website, they do not have those parts listed as available for sale. I contacted them anyway just to be sure. Thanks for your help! Quote

eagle5 Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 Have you tried asking the place with perhaps the largest fleet of 300s,...Bristow academy? I would imagine they would know where to get parts? Quote
apiaguy Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 Bristow flies the 300cbi....it uses the same belt set as the A and B models...the 269c uses a larger diameter set...thus the dash 5 on the part number.Maybe you shouldnt have retired that old set you were complaining about on the other post!I can sell u a used set... Bout 50 hour on the set.. I also have your door latch..used Quote
nightsta1ker Posted June 6, 2012 Author Posted June 6, 2012 Send me a PM with your phone number and email so we can talk turkey tomorrow. Things are crazy busy at my day job so I might not be able to call until evening if that's ok. Quote
nightsta1ker Posted June 6, 2012 Author Posted June 6, 2012 (edited) Oh, and by the way, this is the same belt set that I was complaining about in the other post. We decided to replace them at the 50 hour, as I said. 50 hour is done and we are waiting on belts... We started looking as soon as we found the problem, but have been jerked around by suppliers for weeks. Typical stuff, which is one of the reasons I started that topic in the first place. If we stop and replace every little nick and crack we find we will never get any flying done. Edit: the door handle came off in my hand during the 50 hour inspection Edited June 6, 2012 by nightsta1ker Quote
nightsta1ker Posted June 7, 2012 Author Posted June 7, 2012 Found a new set of belts. Hopefully they arrive before the weekend. Probably got the last new set in the free world . Not one of the North America Sikorsky distributors had any in stock. Apparently they are on back order with no lead date. FYI, the guys at Heli-Mart in Costa Mesa have awesome customer service. I will definitely be giving them my business in the future. Still need that door latch though... Quote
500E Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Hellimart GREAT Co. & Edd has awesome knowledgeWe can get 500 parts quicker than from UK agent, usually 2 days from order, US To our door in UK.Lets not start on 300 parts :angry: shafts,dampers, shall I go on, it would appear they don't rely want the 300 line, only the drone technology.There appears to be little or no back up, no understanding regarding the customer requirements, & certainly no commitment to service.The S300 light AC program is more or less a Circus.

nightsta1ker Posted June 11, 2012 Author Posted June 11, 2012 It would appear that way. I was not pleased with the Sikorsky customer support. They didn't even know which department to transfer me to. O_o Quote
