Richard,Gary et al,
I recently priced such foam from Cumulus and also the WA source,
the foam was cheap from Cumulus BUT the shipping was horrendous
such that I bit the bullet and bought from WA.
They were very good to deal with.

Richard,
I am pleased that you are considering this: Use in your cockpit might save
your spine/life one day.
The subject of an Oz supplier comes up time and time again.
Note that Confor is just a brand name.
There is one supplier in WA who imports the stuff from the USA in large
lumps, called billets - they cut what you want off this lump. However don't
bother: their price is totally unrealistic. I note that Jeff Farrow has
pinned this supplier for you.
Your cheapest option is to import what you need direct from the USA.
Here are a couple of names from the USA for you to Google: Dynamic Systems
Inc - they originated the stuff, and Sunmate.
You will note that there are many densities available. You will find that
layers of different densities can be combined. However, as fascinating as
this subject might be, it is unlikely that you will need to go down this
route. As always, do your research. Ambient temperature is a relevant
factor. What is ideal in Finland (say), will not be ideal in most of
Australia, as the temperature here is generally MUCH hotter. The higher the
temp, the firmer the foam needs to be.
Given the recent distressing post from Cumulus Soaring, this might be a
possible source of supply for you.

Hi all,
The club recently tried to get a Microair M720 serviced with the Microair
folks in Bunderberg, however we were informed that they no longer service
the 720's
They use to have a "Best Effort" approach to these radio's in the past as I
believe the company inherited them with the name even though they were not
the original development company.
Apparently there has been a change of management and a decision was reach
to no longer support these radio's.
They are an old radio, but it was working fine till recently.
Does anybody out there know of any other reputable service agents that has
the kit to handle a M720?
Thanks in advance.
Michael.
