October 27, 201213 yr A very simple question... Is there a reseller that distributes the hardware of flightdeck solutions? I am interested in the fmc but, being produced in Canada, I am afraid that both shipping and taxes will push the price up significantly. Luc Brusselmans Belgium
October 29, 201213 yr Hi Luc I recently purchased the "B737NG Pro-MX series control unit (CDU)w/VGA LCD" direct from FDS. Peter Cos could not have been more helpful. We talked via Skype before I purchased. It cost me Can$999.95 and shipping cost from Canada was Can$90. My total bill of Can$1,089.95 exchanged into £708.77. I am very pleased with the purchase. The quality of the build is exceptionally good. It is a faithful replica of the Boeing unit. The software is not straightforward, but is quickly mastered. If you buy and want any help with the panel.cfg amendments - just contact me. One downside - it is specific to the 737. If you want to use with a 747 (for example) you need to buy another unit - specific to that aircraft. Regards Frank Regards Frank Jones
October 29, 201213 yr Hi Luc I forgot- I also had to pay £79.21 import duty. Regards Frank Regards Frank Jones
October 29, 201213 yr Author Frank, That's what I'm afraid of. With all the taxes we have to deal with, it's just too expensive to consider. Thanks anyway, Luc Brusselmans Belgium
