Carl,
yes it arrived safe and sound, they actually wrapped the fusealodge in 2mm soft foam, the wings and horizontal stab were in a plastic sealed bag. Nothing was broken. I think there is a missing plastic motor mount, but i dont care because im installing an electric motor. I think shipping was 20.00 but I got the 20 percent discount for the holiday. I believe i only paid 87.00 total so I got a deal. the plane was packed in two boxes, the outer box was 5mm thick for shipping protection. I would difinitely buy one if you like this airplane.

Hope this is helpful.

Mike
