| ...the way I see it...I believe the date part has to be related to when the newer kits were released and therefore not included in claims as it "should have" the revised newer heads and landing struts only.
Should we assume that these 'newer" batch/version is the yellow canopy only?
I also believe that the serial number plays a mayor role as it is the only way "they" know who is legit regardless of when purchased. They know when the changes were made and after which number it applies to.
If you purchased an older kit, regardless of the date and from whom, call century and I'm sure they will honor your request depending on serial number. After all, if you are not subscribed to any forum, how do you know its issues to begin with? Of course, you will find out sooner or later.
As a distributor...
Could they have made claims based on remaining inventory in order to have these upgrades included in boxes for future purchasers?
It definitely sounds cheaper than returning the old batch per say...if indeed it's practiced. But as not "all" had the case of the shakes, not a good deal on century side...so claims should be from user.
IF they don't honor your request, it WILL becomes a buyer beware and distributor might end up being stuck with merchandise and the problem will be among them and Swift sales could dwindle.
While writing this, a potential solution is for distributor to make purchaser AWARE that if he gets the shakes, to call century...but could it kill the sale?....quite a conumdrum.
IF indeed yellow canopy denotes newer revised parts, the it should be first question asked to vendor...what color canopy is in box?
Or better yet...my box shows a white canopy photo...of those with the yellow ones...what is on your box?
BTW...box is not sealed and they can find out if photo on box does not give a clue.
EDITED:
AS per a previous post...IF newer versions are only available via century...the above white/yellow canopy is then a given...it should have revised parts.
Time for a break...too much rambling indeed.

) anyways...it was a good practice for an auto...it landed on tail first and struck boom....arrrrgh...but I love the autos...almost silent landings.
