 | Re: Is Sporty\'s Pilot Shop Cheap? www.avshop.com www.pilotmall.com Those two are pretty decent as well. But Sporty's is probably the No. 1 in terms of "reputation" or "recognition." Plus, if you're an AOPA memeber you get a discount at Sporty's too I think. |

| Re: Is Sporty\'s Pilot Shop Cheap? Also try: Marv Golden and Spinners Both have pretty good prices. Sporty's is most definitely the big dog of the pilot shops. |

| Re: Is Sporty\'s Pilot Shop Cheap? Sporty's definatly has the biggest selection and huge name recognition but try Marv Golden. Their prices are usually better especially on headsets. Marv Golden |

Marv Golden [/ QUOTE ] Agreed! I just shopped around for a LightSPEED headset and Marv Golden was not only the least expensive, but had the best deal on shipping as well. It arrived last week and I'm very happy. I'm sure that the others are all good places to go, too, but Marv Golden worked out very well for me on that specific item. Best, PhotoPilot |
