GroupI was contacted by an Aircraft Spruce Sales Rep because someone onthis list forwarded my message about the price upgrade on the Piet, Oras I said GN-1 He didn't really like my slam about they must beraising the price because the Pietenpol has become popular.He went on to say that the price in catalog was wrong last yearbecause the 823.00 was suppose to be for the Pietenpol and not theGN-1 and this year in the 1999-2000 catalog they changed it to be forthe Pietenpol but forgot to change the GN-1 to Pietenpol. somethinglike that. I just pointed out to him that I was reading from twocatalogs and it looked to me like they had raised to price for theGN-1 spruce kit from 823.00 to 1300.00 and maybe someone should editthe catalog before sending the thing out.So whoever forwarded my message to Aircraft Spruce, Thanks alotbecause I really enjoy talking to the Head Dish and Bottle Washer.Miss all that sinse I was in my High Pressure Govt job.For updated information give Jerry Aguilar a call.

We have been exchanging some nice emails in the past couple days. He is takingmy advice and going to get on the list. I told him I could not be relayingmessages as it would be much better for him to speak for ACS.I will bounce all companys together for my supplies. If I can get good stuff ata fair price from ACS I will drive over and pick it up, I like to keep mybusiness close to home. But I will not pay a higher price just because they areclose.GordonGary Gower wrote:> >Group> >> >I was contacted by an Aircraft Spruce Sales Rep because someone on> >this list forwarded my message about the price upgrade on the Piet, Or> >as I said GN-1 He didn't really like my slam about they must be> >raising the price because the Pietenpol has become popular.> >> >He went on to say that the price in catalog was wrong last year> >because the 823.00 was suppose to be for the Pietenpol and not the> >GN-1 and this year in the 1999-2000 catalog they changed it to be for> >the Pietenpol but forgot to change the GN-1 to Pietenpol. something> >like that.

Dear Gordon,Regarding your email on pricing of wood kits. Our pricing and quality of spruce is competitive with anyone in the market. And of course we guarantee to meet or beat a competitors price.The only real way to see if there is in deed a difference in price is to obtain kit lists from both companies and compare what is contained in each kit, to make sure you are comparing apples to apples. There are also different variations of the same plane one with a one piece wing and one with a three piece wing.All this really got my curiosity up so what I did was make a friendly call to Wicks and inquireabout their spruce kit for Pietenpol Aircramper. What they told me, you can call and verify, was that they can supply materials needed for the plane but they do not have a list of materials, thus they have no idea exactly what is required in the kit or an idea of the actual cost. Wicks does not have a set spruce kit built up for the Aircamper. Again this is why I say the only way to really compare prices is to sit down with the kit list from each company and see what is contained or to supply the same list to each company and request a quote.Sincerely,Jerry Aguilar>From: Gordon Brimhall >Reply-To: Pietenpol Discussion >To: Pietenpol Discussion >Subject: Re: everyone can get AS&S catalog free>Date: Thu, 26 Aug 1999 17:11:45 -0700>>We have been exchanging some nice emails in the past couple days.

Great, You made it to the list Jerry.But why a different email address, other companys use their company address.LikeI told you it was someone else saying he called Wicks and got the greatprice for all the parts, talking like they had a package all ready. Maybe it isimpossable to have a package because of the different verations, we need to geta list together on this list and price it all out. I have volunteered to do itif I can get a list of needed spruce.I see you have a packaege listed for the GN-1 Aircamper and a price that was inerror in the 1998/99 catalog with the corrected price in the 1999/2000 catalog.Are you planning to have a complete list for the Real Pietenpol Aircamper instandard form, with maybe an option for the 3 piece wing? Would be nice.Thanks Jerry for making the list.GordonRW1 PietMohawk MK IVPlane Fun wrote:> Dear Gordon,> Regarding your email on pricing of wood kits.
