Hi Marv,

I just picked up a set of shocks from Holland (Reiger racing) a couple
weeks ago for a friend of mine's plane (L360).  I work for Philips
Electronics (dutch company) and make trips often there.  The shocks do not look to be koni and the pre-load is adjustable.  They are
quite heavy though.  They weigh 4.8 lb a piece.

I'm currently prototyping a set here in california and hope to bring a set
with me to OSH.  They will be adjustable in length (shooting for 5.5" - 6")
and preload.  Also the shocks should be lighter.  I'm a mechanical engineer and want to do sufficient testing both through
predictive modelling and actual before I would release them.  If that is something you would have an interest in, let me know.
