A customer had some work done on his wings a long time ago by Phoenix Composites and the fuel filler flanges that were installed are not any of the types the Express factory has used.

The caps are missing and the the customer would like to purchase a pair but does not know for sure what they are. From the history of the work done on the aircraft we are guessing they are the new style Glasair caps. Can anyone identify them for sure?

Fuel Filler Flange

Thanks.

These sure look like the newer style Glasair caps to me.

If they were done by Phoenix Composites, I'd bet money that they're Glasair style.

if this is the builder I'm thinking about, the fuel caps are newton and they were lost in one of the moves around rochester.
