What are the front cabin door seal part numbers for our Club planes?
What are the baggage door seal part numbers?
Editor:
The main cabin door seals are part number 169-420036-124. These fit aircraft serial numbers:
M0001 through M2233
MC001 through MC701
MA001 and after
MB001 and after
While they will physically fit on the later planes and the Duchess, the -124 seal is not the seal that is listed in the IPC for those planes, nor for the Skipper.
Part number 105-420015-33 (Beech $877) applies to airframe serial numbers:
M2224, M2234 and after;
MC689, MC702 and after;
All model 76 Duchess airframes.
Part number 108-430000-29 (Beech $349) applies to all model 77 Skipper airframes.
The Beech price on both of these latter two seals is ridiculous. The 105- seal extrusion can be obtained from Brown aircraft, under PN BA420015, for about $102; here is the link. Be sure you get the full URL:

I don’t yet know of an alternate source for the Skipper seal.
The baggage door seals are as follows:
Small LH and RH baggage door: 169-430012-19 (Beech $238) fits:
M0001 and after
MC002 through MC150
MA001 through MA368
Large baggage door: 169-430015-41 fits:
MC151 and after
I need sample pieces of all these baggage door seals, in order to pursue alternatives. Please send me any remains of new seals, and some pieces of the old seals, when you replace one; Thanks.
