Yes Aircraft Spruce has to get it from PTI and they wait for enough orders to make it worthwhile to send a truck to pick it up due to hazardous fees. Could take upwards of 30 to 45 days sometimes. I'm working with PTI rep and AS rep directly to try to get some drop shipped. I can't wait to put this back together so I decided on Rustoleum self etching primer from walmart with a topcoat of Rustoleum rust control gloss gray enamel for the inner panels and the self etching might be OK for the support tubes since it has a dark green shade to it. If not I may just get the Dupli-color self etching lighter green. The Rustoleum has zinc phosphate, but the Dupli-color does not. I think it is the Titanium in the Duplicolor that controls rust, but I'm not sure. Others have reported great results years after application on both so I don't think I'm going to have any issues. Will keep a close watch on it though.
