Hi Guys, I have a CH701 as I understand was built in Czechoslovakia, during the various changes of ownership the keys to the locks have gone missing, does anyone know where I can obtain replacement keys or complete door latch sets. I want to replace with the originally installed equipment so I dont have to mangle the door trying to put in the lock sets now offered by Zenith.

Thanks

Tom,
If your airplane was built in the Czech Republic, it was probably built by the Czech Aircraft Works [CZAW]. They are now called Czech Sport Aircraft or something similar, and are the builders of the Sportscruiser which is being sold as the Piper LSA. They no longer build the Zenith range, but if you contact them they are quite helpful and may have some parts still available.

If you can find one key or take the locks to a locksmiths and get them keyed alike. I did mine that way so as to get one key to fit all. it would have been nice to have my mag switch and doors all the same. Thats how I set up my previous C150a - it was easy to modify the doorlock to accept a Bendix mag key on that one.
