Unitracts

[Concorde Speedbird]

Has anyone used Unitracts recently? I cannot for the life of me get hold of them by phone or e-mail, having tried several times. Are they still distributing?

Thanks,

Jacob

i gave up on them long ago

I think that the chap that ran Unitracts and did all the manufacturing (can't remember his name I'm afraid) retired and, as it was basically a "one-man" company, it simply closed. I could be wrong,...but that is my recollection, it was a couple of years ago now.

PS - I've just checked the website, although it is still operational there appear to have been no updates since 2015 - which matches well with the time I seem to remember them closing?

It was Tony Goodger, it’s a shame as I have had a couple of his units before he retired and they were top notch quality.

Tony sold up to someone else who currently runs it. My understanding is that they do still produce things but its very much as and when they fancy it. its a similar situation to flair from what I have been told

It doesn't sound promising, feels like they don't want the business. It's a shame since they make some great stuff for the BT plans.

This creates a quandary for the Mustang, might have to try and make the retracts Taylor shows on the plan.

Thanks for your help.

I have been trying to contact John Hope who, I assume is the new owner. I have sent messages via their website and left voicemails on both the mobiles shown on the site. Nothing to date. Has anyone else spoken to them in the last few weeks?
