BorealOne Posted January 25, 2020 Author Report Posted January 25, 2020 I’ve gone with Upper Valley in lovely Chilliwack, BC - theY have a great reputation and the exchange rate is much more favorable 1 Quote

Hawk... and they are in Florida... which could make A great mid-winter break.. FYI, They don’t respond to emails or website quote requests. I’ve yet to call them, I generally prefer electronic communication, less chance of miscommunication, but apparently they are living in the 80s.Tom Quote

I found him very responsive. I much prefer email and text message. Have you tried to contact through the website? (They were booked out several months and I suppose they get a lot of tire kickers so initial contact by phone might be a good idea. He's also moved to Zephyrhills from Tampa Exec and expanded space and staff so he might not do all the sales work anymore.) But, it's been a while and thing might have changed. 2 Quote
Seymour Posted January 26, 2020 Report Posted January 26, 2020 Squawking 7500 - Temporarily hijacking this thread. It's done! I pick it up Tuesday so I'll finally have a pic on my profile and an update for the "Your Favorite Ride with Your Favorite Aircraft" thread soon. Squawking VFR - Sorry for the diversion. So yes, I like the dark blue, too! I went with a Royal Blue belly on my E and a scheme inspired by an Acclaim I saw in a picture years ago (N887PS). I was concerned about the Royal Blue being too dark with the shadows but it looks great in the pictures I've seen to date. Fingers crossed..... Enjoy the process. I'm sure you'll make a great decision and have good luck with the paint shop! Dave Quote
