[:-]dont intend to slag any dealers off,i think most of them charge a fair price for most items and if they were not there some of us would be right in the smelly stuff,but some prices SILLY i mean 130 quid plus for a kevlar tank for a boomer,well if you MUST have it then buy it but whats wrong with a 5quid 2litre bottle from RS.both are going to bust if you hit hard enough.as for FOD guards daves moulded ones are nice but i once ordered a pukka fod guard from another well known jet supplier,what turned up for 20 quid....... A TEA STRAINER WITH THE HANDLE CUT OFF..............
PS xairflyer got your panterra yet.
Dont know what has happened to the Pantera, we would have had three of them but with the delays and the price keep going up we have moved on to something else.
I know 2 other pilots who have cancelled their Pantera Orders. In my view YT have rearly let themselves down on this one.
I also fail to see why you need a snug fitting kevlar in a boomer for over £100 to carry a few extra oz's of fuel that you probably wont use rather than a 2 ltr bottle for about £5 or better a free recycled one. I am sure a Kevelar one would also be far heavier than any pop bottle type one.
I think the bling factor has a lot to do with this item
