To much instant gratification, nobody wants to spend the time building now days when they can open a box and have a plane together in just a few hours or less. Over the years I have spent a many a dollar at Tower but it keeps getting to be less and less and if they keep this crap up it will be none, most of the time I can't get what I really want there anymore due to there discontinued product lines and I am not talking about just aircraft either.
When the big take over happened tower went thru and rasied every price on everything they carried and not by a small margin either.

They buy out the GB line and discontinue it, what a nice way to promote there own kits. Don't get me wrong I do like GP kits, but I also liked many others that are now not available due to such practices as this.
I don't even see a lainier ARF or Kit in the place, maybe I didn't look hard enough but it just stands to reason.
I was told 20 years ago that GP was trying to monoplized the aircraft kit industry and now I can believe it.
If I seem a little bit bent out of shape, thats because I am!!!!!!!!
