Subject: Pietenpol-List: Sirius Aviation, in Masquite TX Has anyone used them forsuppliesI found this supply house called Sirius Aviation in Mesquite, TX, since I live in Southern Oklahoma I could drive down to pick up my wood. They sell Sitka spruce, Douglas Fir, and Hemlock. They also sell plywood and other materials like hardware. I just wondered if anyone could give me an idea about their service, and quality.I had sent a request to them for a price quote, they were very slow about getting back with me. In fact after waiting a couple weeks I E-mailed them and said I would have to place my order with Wicks if they did not reply. I got my request back in a few hours. Please let me know if you have any insight about this company.Dan________________________________________________________________________________
