RE: Dave Patrick service getting worse?
Well it really is a shame that a good person, with a great product is taking advantage of a limited market. Dave knows there is no where else, this will not always be the case, to go to get planes like his. So why take the time, effort, and expense of providing good service. I mean he comes on here and reads that everyone is willing to take all he can throw at his PAYING customers. His customers are willing to pay good money to wait up to a year for their planes, they are willing to wait forever for replacement parts, they don't mind being lied to, they don't mind shipping errors, and just as long as the plane flies well, they are willing to go through all that again to buy another plane from him.
Why on earth would he want to change things?
I think it is time for compaines to stop going to 3rd world countries to have these things built. They need to find a way for these planes to be built, at a good cost, in the US so they can get better control of the process. No more massive wait on builds, shipping, etc......
If it was me, and it is, I would never buy another product, period, from DPM.
Just my thoughts.
