Well,first off, I have to point out that once the container gets to the dock in China, it's out of Aerowork's hands. But if the the Extra 260 shippment is any indication, they have been on the water since some time in December (can't remember the exact date), at least that's what I was told when I called them. I was expecting a late December/early January delivery date and stopped building a 34% Extra because I thought I would get this plane sooner ( I decided to use all the equipment I bought for it on the 260)...well, we are nearly in the middle of February and they are still on the water - that's been at least 6 weeks already. And they haven't even gotten to the states yet. Once they do, it will be around 10 days from there before they are shipped to customers. Sure, you can hope, but you will be disappointed. If I were you, I'd plan on a mid-April delivery (according to mark, they hit the water around the 1st of Feb+6weeks water time, minimum+2 weeks of logistics on land+fudge factor, i.e. customs, weather, etc), that way, you will be pleasantly suprised if they show up earlier...
