Default Kit prices

may well be heading up. Heard today that aluminium prices are up over 30% since the first of the year. I am sure Van is watching this carefully. I haven't seen him say anything yet, but since he is a big user he can't help but pass the costs along. Bottom line, order now.

Default In another thread..

..I read that the increases do not primarily affect the alloys we (Vans) use for airplane building, and that most of those materials are produced in the US.
