January 17, 20251 yr I pre-ordered both, the MCDU and the PFP3N. I'll get the other two at a later date if available. The only thing I notice was I was charged shipping for the MCDU $36.00 and not for the PFP3N. However, I did placed the orders separately both at different times (Their website was really slow!) so that might be it. I open a ticket to ask about this, let's see if they respond.😁
January 17, 20251 yr Is the global site shipping sooner than the local sites, is that why people are ordering from the global site and paying for shipping? 787 captain. Previously 24 years on 747-400.Technical advisor on PMDG 747 legacy versions QOTS 1 , FS9 and Aerowinx PS1.

January 17, 20251 yr I ordered from my local UK site which said free shipping,but had an ETA>45 days so I was curious if there was any time advantage of using the international site and that’s why people were using it and taking the hit on shipping costs. 787 captain.

If you order direct from Winwing it will go direct to you - if you order from UK / USA etc. it has to go there first then to you - why I elected to go right to them Glad I got it taken care of last night - I cant even get Their site to load today They are going to sell a boat load of these at the asking price - cost for shipping is not an issue for me anyway at the base cost for these units Edited January 17, 20251 yr by Richard Sennett Rich Sennett

Reading FB Somebody asked when they may ship - Winwing said in about 7 days - if true that's not bad 🙂 Jus tread another post by (Wingwing Pre-order needs about 2 months) So not sure how this is all going to play out - from launch it took me 3 hours to pay - well see Edited January 17, 20251 yr by Richard Sennett Rich Sennett
January 17, 20251 yr Ah just read my email from purchase says this: Please find order details below. The estimated lead time for shipping is approximately 5 business days. On the day of shipment, we will notify you So I guess I got an order in on time and preorder is 2 months - thats a long time - maybe I should play the lottery lol Edited January 17, 20251 yr by Richard Sennett Rich Sennett
January 18, 20251 yr Just pre-ordered the two as well without the clamps .I will get them from the eu site later as i cant get in. Found some 5v 2,4A mobile chargers in the house as well. Michael Moe Michael Moe
