Default Coyote Works??

Anyone know what happened to this company? Their website is gone and a friend of mine is having a problem with his bag and needs a repair. Thanks in advance.

I was also trying to access the website yesterday and it just displays a godaddy homepage thing. I also emailed one of the owners a month ago, but no response. Probably not much business anymore. I was hoping to buy one but I guess not now. I am going to call some of the retail online stores and see what they say. I really wanted that skid plate on the bottom. Ill let ya know if i find anything out.

I've had one of their bags for about a year and a half now, good quality stuff. I think I have some telephone numbers that they put in my bag when I first received it, if anyone wants them just send me a pm.
I wonder what happened?? Hope they will be back.

Might try calling the StopOver store in IAH, they sold the bags and might know being that the co. is local. I have one and love it! Heavy as s@#t, but will never have to buy another bag... hopefully.

They are Xjet pilots, might help when asking around..

One of the two owners is no longer with the company, so I guess they're in a state of flux right now. They are now a one man operation (plus suppliers) according to guys on the XJT board.

Contact John Hunt at 281 610 6539...supposedly still taking new orders as well as Warranty requests.

anybody find any info on them, or get up with the guy at the number listed above?

I'm also looking to get in touch with them. I have one of their cases with the steel skid plates, and I remember their website a while back saying that they can retrofit the skid plates to most other brands of flight cases too. I want to contact them about possibly retrofitting a skid plate between the wheels of my luggageworks stealth 22" rollaboard.

It's just low enough to the ground when rolling it that if there is a rock it will get caught and bend and scrape the metal all up...i actually tore my uniform pants when picking it up once because a rock had snagged the metal edge and it rubbed against my leg.

Yes, they are now Hunt Manufacturing. You can get company information at FlyByStore.com - Pilot Store & Crew Shop, or their website at Home. All Coyote Works products are still supported, and all original products are still offered just under different names. Hope this helps.
