Hi Andy,

 

I still haven't received mine. There was a recent post with correspondence from Terry in it that says they're still delayed due to the PE not being up to standards and production problems.

 

He does say that if you want a refund he'll do so upon request.

 

If you have anything specific to ask, I can try calling him next week and ask on your behalf.

 

Hope that helps,

 

Carl

Had the same issue with the 48th Catalina. It is now 1 year to the day since I preordered them.  Apparently they rejected a couple of batches due to QC issues. Not sure what the delay is at this point, these are just decals, no PE.

 

 

Cheers

  • 1 year later...

So, after cancelling my pre order earlier this year has anyone recieved their pre order or are aviaelogy still not able to supply or has everyone who has pre ordered just given up on this one?

 

Regards. Andy

Hmmmm, strange.  It sounded like he was trying to do all he could to sort the issue some time back.  

 

I mean, we all have issues trying to produce something (look at how long its taking me to do my Skyhawk HUD/panel) but communication is key, especially when money has been contributed...I dont want to cancel, but I fear I may have to as well. 

 

Terry, if you are reading this mate, can you let us know whats going on?

 

Cheers

Anthony

I'm still waiting for my set. I haven't checked on the Britmodeller thread in a while but did get an email from Aviaeology that they have a new website up and the PE sets are listed there.

There's a brief mention of "woes" but nothing on when the sets will be ready. 

 

Clicking on the individual items show them as "sold out" which they indicate is a place holder for items that are incoming or works in progress.

Thanks for the link.  Never realized how complex this rig was until I perused the page linked above.  Must have had a big impact on the top speed of the Mossie!   Maybe the complexity of the parts ended up slowing down Aviaeology?   

 

Also noted that they have Gee set in the works for the Mosquito.   That would be welcome.
