  > I was contacted by dozens of individuals in all walks of the aviation industry and was given a great deal of good information to move forward with. The first and most important of which was a technician at the Honeywell service center in Tempe Arizona. This was also the facility I intended to contact myself so this save me a phone call which was nice. The technician was kind enough to run a serial number search for me to get additional information about the part. It was originally purchased in the mid 2000s and operated for the better part of a decade by a major airline. The part was serviced a handful of times but how it ended up here was still unclear. They indicated that the part was sent to a lower level service center where they were unable to overhaul it and referred it to the Tempe Arizona facility (where it never arrived, or was never serviced). That was the last record they had and aside from speculation couldn't say much about how it landed in Goodwill.
