Mitsubishi A6M2-21 Zero

[mcline411]

Good Day,

I am the chief pilot for Stampede Aviation and unfortunately our Zero landing Gear struts have failed NDT. I am looking to see if there is anyone that has original build drawings, instructions for casting including metallurgy or heat treatment etc. Anything available would be more than appreciated. I feel honoured to be a part of this project in preservation of aviation history. It is extremely important to us and the aircraft owner to keep these aircraft in airworthy condition.

Thanks in advance!

You might reach out to this individual on Twitter. https://x.com/A6M232 He seems to have some good information and contacts on the Zero.

Also the Planes of Fame Museum have a Zero that they may be able to provide some information.
