What he did was seperate the parts that we used to build the 5 empenage pieces. He told us that you had best purchase these translucent plastic - approx 14x9x2 boxes at Home Depot. The boxes are inexpensive and GREAT. You can see inside of them and label the tops with the contents and the bag number. They have 24 compartmens for rivits and bolts. I tried buying a similar box at Harbor Freight, but the idiots put a sticky label on top and I could not get it off. The HD boxes also have rounded bottoms that make grabbing the items easy. [Laughing] I bought 3 boxes from Depot, but I wish that I had initially bought 4.

Certainly LoPresti makes some interesting quality speed mods...but at a cost that many RV builders may not want to invest in...unless they have lower margins for experimental aircraft? Hopefully they will be competitive.

Several Columbia sales people stated (at SNF) that since they started offering the G1000 they have not sold a single Avidyne. Their comment was "take that for what it's worth." Seems like the only way you will get an Avidyne system in a Columbia is if you buy old stock. Their (nice) booth featured several free standing G1000 displays. It was a great place to play with the unit for 45 minutes w/o being disturbed. Nice stuff! Sure wish it was a flat $50K and the services were more reasonable.

LoPresti pricing has always seemed to be way out of line for the benefits. I just assumed that the STC process and small market size (plus profit & insurance) was the driving factor.

It is incredibly easy to check now. Remember, I just can't remove the top because of my throttle quadrant. I had 140 hours on it when I checked it and it was almost perfect. Just a couple little pieces of lint. I was expecting to find at least one piece of pro-seal but nothing. I will post some pictures once I get them uploaded tonight.
