I recently purchased a Yellow F-16 RTF from Kentucky> The crate will be 83n long 39wide by 22 tall. What is the best way to ship this??? Who out there has experience shipping a yellow F-16.
Thanks for the help. It will be coming to Orange County..

Hey there,
I have used FA many times in the past & they are great as mentioned above by George & Kap.Your safest shipping/quickest route is gonna come from air transport,obviously the less time your package is in transit the less likely it is to get messed up.As an alternative I been using Airborne Express for the last year,I have solely been using them in this time period,they will ship either ground or air for you -they will even pickup from your location!!They are very inxpensive/safe & just as quick as FA.The only thing potentially bad about them is that I have noticed that their pricing structure seems to vary alot sometimes on same size packages/crates.I have shipped a few times where a 72''x 38''x 35'' was only 78.00 ground then another time on a relatively same size package which was like 150.00.I have used air shipment with them many times which seems to vary quite a bit as well.I cant tell you why their rates tend to vary so much,but they are cheaper than FA is gonna be & you are not losing any shipping safety by doing so.They are just as quick as FA in delivery time by air &normally like 3-4 days coast to coast for ground. In any event I prefer to use them now personally.Just my opinion [8D]
