Skidz Posted April 22, 2005 Report Share Posted April 22, 2005 When I was shopping for one two yeares ago, I found that a lot of pilot stores in Canada say they carry Gentex, Gallet or Alpha, but in fact, when you go through them, they just get a commission from the distributors. No one carries anything in stock. There was a gentex HGU-56 at VIP in St-Hubert when I was shopping, but it was there 'cause the buyer went broke and never paid it in full. They ended up selling a few dollars cheaper than list... I never bought a complete helmet from Flightsuits, but I bought parts from them and I got very good service on the phone. Their INternet ordering system is "average" at best. It's worth the long distance charges to do business with them by phone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
