Default ARFs shipping restricted

Does anyone know why the ARFs from AeroWorks sold by Tower Hobbies are marked "shipping restricted to some states" ? The same size airplanes from Great Planes do not have the same note.

" Some materials used in this product are none to cause cancer". This was the warning on some Dubro parts. Those cannot be sold in Ca

This seems to be a little insane. Who makes this type of decision? I can understand concerns over cancerous chemicals, but a model airplane?

Just about everything has that label on it, (thanks to the babysitting CA legislature), and all these products are still sold in CA,,

Tower does not stock them. You order from
tower,then they order it from AW. It's called
drop shippment.

It's gonna get worse before it gets better !!! People keep electing these idiots into office !!! Those officials think they are sooo much smarter than the "normal " folks . They already restrict items we can buy !!! Perhaps you've heard, Mayor " Dumberg" of New York is trying to keep the public from buying 16 oz. drinks & restricting new mothers from getting formula because " HE" feels it's better for them !!!

Yes I agree, we need to keep this an airplane forum. For as long as we can anyway.
Enjoy it, those same idiots would love to regulate the internet.
Wake up people, November is just right around the corner!

This post is totally inaccurate. Full stocking of Dubro accessories are available in California hobby shops.
