    UNITED STATES AVIATION UNDERWRITERS, INC., Manager, United States Aircraft Insurance Group, Inc., a New York Corporation, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. RAYTHEON AIRCRAFT COMPANY, etc., et al., Defendants, Raytheon Aircraft Company, a Kansas Corporation, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 05-50568.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Decided April 5, 2006.
    
      John Griggs Sams, Howell, Dorman & Sams, Fort Worth, TX, Jon Allan Kodani, Law Offices of Jon A. Kodani, Santa Monica, CA, for Plaintiff-Appellant.
    Richard H. Caldwell, Andrews & Kurth, Houston, TX, Sidney G. Dunagan, Leasa McCorkle Stewart, Amy Melissa Stipe, Gable & Gotwals, Oklahoma City, OK, for Defendants-Appellees.
    Before REAVLEY, JOLLY and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

The summary judgment of the district court is affirmed for the following reasons:

1. There is no evidence that Raytheon as a reseller altered or modified the plane before reselling it in 1999. Under Oklahoma law, no strict liability is obtained. Allenberg v. Bentley Hedges Travel Serv., Inc., 22 P.3d 223, 230 (Okla.2001).
2. As for the wiring criticized by the FAA in 1991, that was how the plane was manufactured in 1976. While Raytheon is the corporate successor of Beech Aircraft, which manufactured the plane, this liability is barred by the General Aviation Revitalization Act’s eighteen-year statute of repose. 49 U.S.C. § 40101.
3. Assuming the inverter select relay was made by Beech and installed in 1990, there is no evidence it was defective. The argument over Dr. Rhoten’s testimony is misplaced. Indeed, there was a fact issue on the recovery of the relay and, in any event, his testimony was certainly admissible. But all he said was that he thought the inverter select relay failed. He said that he did not know why or how it failed and that he had no knowledge as to whether it was defective when it was manufactured. Ahrens v. Ford Motor Co., 340 F.3d 1142, 1145 (10th Cir.2003) (applying Oklahoma law).
4. The claim that Raytheon failed to warn the buyer of the plane of the 1991 FAA statement about the bus wiring fails because this information was known by the plane’s pilot. Duane v. Okla. Gas & Elec. Co., 833 P.2d 284, 287 (Okla.1992) (“Where the danger or potentiality of danger is known or should be known to the user, the duty to warn does not attach.”). Furthermore, the change recommended by the FAA would not have saved this plane where both buses failed. Gaines-Tabb v. ICI Explosives, USA Inc., 160 F.3d 613, 620 (10th Cir.1998) (applying Oklahoma law) (recognizing lack of proximate cause where the causal nexus is broken).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the Court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
