PLEASE READ --- UPDATE ---
To clean up a few miscommunications within this post:
1. It was our decision to pay Aerotronics in full at the time of the order. They were more than happy to refund our money for any of the hardware they didn’t yet have in their shop or order us any other hardware, if we wanted to change. WE HAVE NEVER QUESTIONED the honor or integrity of Aerotronics during this entire process. Their service and professionalism is second to none.
2. Lesson; Sometimes we only hear what we want to hear from a vendor.
3. Talk to all the parties involved within the same day … boy that clears the air faster than email or voice mails, both of can lead to more misunderstandings.
4. GRT was not paid any monies for any hardware either from us or Aerotronics.
Finally just a personal note … thanks to everyone involved, it’s worked out faster than I could have hoped for.
At sun and fun my dad ordered the Grand Rapids EFIS with Synthetic Vision.
Well they told us it would come at the end of April ... that came and when.
Then we heard it was coming before OSH ... that came and when.
Then at OSH we were told "shipping right after OSH".
Well here we are 8-20-08 and still no EFIS.
Makes me wonder what kind of company is Grand Rapids? Are they having issues?
My original post was removed by Bob Collins, this is the replacement as he couldn't restore the original.
Guessing on questions or replyies to this post:
1. We did aleady pay for the product.
2. We have talked to them many times alot with our vendor and just keep getting promises on shipment dates.
3. Unlike Dynon (we have one of the first D10's, they didn't sell us the unit until they were ready to ship) they (GRT) keep telling us dates and the time keeps marching away.
4. YES we are sour!
