Engine and plane availability questions?
How well will a F.P.E 3.2 fly the new 28% Edge 540T compared to the G-62? Is it too late to order the new Edge or are they all spoken for? Thanks!

Here's the story on airplane availablility.
I originally ordered a large container of planes (250), but it became apparent that the production was going slower than they had anticipated and if I waited for all of them to be finished there would be no planes before xmas holidays. So I changed the plan and told them to ship whatever they could in time for christmas, which turned out to be 129 planes.
I thought that would carry us for a while so I planned the next shipment for late Feb./early March, but demand has been strong and I need more planes now.
So I changed the plan again and I will be receiving another 125 airplanes as soon as they can build them, with delivery to me expected right after the holidays. The order line is open again. If you don't get one from the first batch, it will only be another month before we have more planes.
Here's a hint to any international people who want a plane right away. We can have planes drop shipped to anywhere in the world from the builder in Thailand for about $150 freight charges, and they have stock available now. Shipping takes about 10 days to the US.
Woo Hoo!

Tom, thanks for the heads up explanation! If I had to wait another month or even two no big deal it's too dang cold to fly here anyway. When I get a chance I'll be giving you a ring to order one of those bad boys. Thanks!

Hi, I was wondering if you are still expecting the 25 planes mid December that you mentioned might be shipped the week after the original batch or if you are just going to wait for the 2nd batch to come after Christmas?
