Re: Whats up with this???
Valuation of the dollar I am assuming. Where the weak dollar is great for guys that export product abroad, not so great for importing stuff in.

Re: Whats up with this???
My Comp Arf rep called me and told me that as of last Monday, Comp Arf was having a price increase of about 6-8%. He was trying to get me to buy a plane. Said he was contacting his "best customers". (funny, I only ever bought one plane from him).
I asked WHY would they want to increase prices. His answer was that Comp Arf has not had a price increase in the last 4 years. Hell, most people I know haven't had a raise in the last 4 years either. I recently got over the jonesing for composite planes, and it feels so good to be back. Nothing like an Aeroworks Quick Build... |
