Hi Guys!
First, let me say how much I enjoyed the "gathering". Thanks for
allowing me to spout off my 2 cents about the extraordinary value of
the group and the way to make it grow. (My belief is we must make it
personal. Leave your own phone number on every Grumman you see with an
invitation to call).
Second, I'm wildly pleased that everyone likes our IceSkate design. You
may know this is our #1 product for Cirrus Aircraft. Our design has a
huge door for tire pressure and inspection, a cooling vent for the
brakes, much lighter than stock (not hard to do), reduced drag, carbon
fiber construction, 1/4 turn fasteners for fast installation and
removal and an integrated strut fairing. (It's also very sexy. That's a
feature I don't take lightly. If it does not look really, really cool,
it offends our sense of design).
This is a trial balloon. I need to know how many of us are interested.
If the group is large enough I can do a product run which is more
affordable than the Cirrus unit. The Cirrus SR20 version of our
IceSkates sell for $7495. If we can get a group of 25 AA5's together we
can make a deal for $5495 and if we can get 50 we can manufacture for
$4495. The set will include all three pants, all three strut fairings,
all new hardware, all brackets and fasteners, etc. It will be a
certified STC product and can be installed and removed by the owner.
So. Let's start a dialog. Whatcha think?
