$34,000 TRC?

[LawnDart]

Are you kidding me? ..and it STILL doesn't come with Yokes, Rudder pedals, the Sim computer or even the $75 Flight Simulator software!!That must be some real good plastic they made that out of!Geesh!

Hehe. Well, they're going after a specific (and small) market now where sims cost $50,000+. For example, last year FLYIT's helicopter sim went from $79,000 to $98,000 (http://www.flyit.com/PHSprice.html). At least FLYIT's shipping is free. :-lolNote: The $35,000 TRC-572 includes radio stack, yoke and rudder pedals (along with the enclosure), it's the 372 that does not.Peter http://bfu.avsim.net/sigpics/PeterR.gifBFU Forums Moderator[table border=2 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=1][tr][td][table border=0 cellpadding=8 cellspacing=0][tr][td bgcolor=#540000]http://bfu.avsim.net/sigpics/logo75t.gif[/td][td align="center" bgcolor=#FFFFF6]Bush Flying Unlimited"At home in the wild"Looking for adventure?

TRC has completely lost my trust, since they showed to be unable to calculate: when a company decides to raise the price of a product by 70 percent (SEVENTY PERCENT!) between the time of announcement and the moment it hits the market, there is something very wrong there.I'm sad to say that these are countrymen of mine - quite embarrassing (sad grin)! Not only did they raise the price of one of their rigs from 3000 euro to 5000 euro, but also they suddenly refuse to honor their offer to sell individual instruments. If it weren't too much trouble, I'd alert the "Economische Controle Dienst" in my country. These are the government guys that investigate idiotic price raises and such, and I'm quite sure they would have something to say about the TRC practices. But "I will fight no more forever" so let another, younger and healthier, Dutchman attack the sad practices of TRC.Jaap Verduijn.
