Re: Rear lock cylinder fell out in flight!
Really, I’m the only one that this has happened to? Can someone tell me where to order a new rear door lock?

I've never had one fall out in flight, but I did replace my rear door lock when I bought the plane because it was not working quite right. I believe we ordered the replacement door lock directly from Diamond.

It happened to mine when it was ferried back from purchase in 2015. Ordered a lock from Diamond, no problem.
