RE: FLy Eagle Jet Models
Think this is getting a little off topic guys? Obviously. Fly Eagle is raising their prices??? DUHHHHH!!! Fact of life, prices go up.
Monkeyking, would you expect to work you entire life for the same amount of pay you had with your very first job? I think not. Fly Eagle has come out with a quality product with tons of features for 1/2 the price of their competitors. As the cost of materials, facilities and labor to manufacture goes up (overhead), as well as demand for the product, a smart business person raises prices when the market will bear them, that is the only way a company can survive. They can raise their prices even more and people will still buy as they are a good deal. Only if the competition, who has enjoyed a run at the upper pricing echelon of the market lowers their prices and doesn't reduce quality, will FEJ have to reconsider pricing. They are not low quality planes for a cheap price, they offer a quality product and UNMATCHED customer support, period. I have been in this hobby for over 25 years, and have never had the help and support that I get from this company, even if it is just with technical questions and not defective products. If you feel the dream is over, all I can say is your loss. There is a large group of us that will glady step in line and purchase from Fly Eagle. That way you can brag about how much you spent on your turbine, while the rest of us have a great quality great flying aircraft, that is virtualy identical, for roughly 1/2 the price. Oh yeah, and good luck getting parts from "the other guy" as well
