Hi All,
Not teaching anybody to suck eggs here:
I use them (Transair) most of the time and generally can't fault them too. Service is prompt. Was recently, somewhat disappointed with the chaps behind the till in London though when I was very seriously considering picking up some elite hardware. They just didn't seem all that interested. Ultimately, went direct to elite themselves and saved money too. FX FX!
What I would add and hence the comment about sucking eggs, is with the GBP/USD rate so much in our (UK) favour there are some very obvious arbitrage plays to be had at present. The high end goods such as top spec headphones, transceivers (models not yet available this side of the pond from the likes of Icom) and Garmin GPS’s + import duty & FEDEX charges etc still generally make an obvious saving!
Sure, we are seeing the US making moves to counter this with other electrical goods but we’re a long way off that regarding aviation products in my view.
Kind regards,
EG
