Special Order Items

In an effort to supply our customers with the widest selection of merchandise, we special order some items which may be infrequently requested. An example of a special order item would be Pilot Operating Handbooks, we will generally stock some most common handbooks such as the Cessna 172 generic handbooks, however many manuals have an almost unlimited number of Makes, Models and years of manufacture, this makes the number of items we would need to stock literally in the thousands. For this reason we will special order many items such as this. These items are available for shipment generally within 7 days, however please refer to the individual product pages for estimated ship times. These items will be shipped separately from our in stock items and will be charged an additional shipping fee if shipped with regularly stocked items. We do not charge restock fees for returns of our regularly stocked items, however returns of Special Order Items may incur a 15% restock fee. Special Order Items are clearly marked as "Special Order" also "Additional Shipping May Apply"

Product Availability

We pride ourselves on prompt, courteous service. We strive to pack and ship all packages within two business days. If this is not possible for some reason, we will notify you ASAP. The total time to receive your package is dependent upon the shipping method you choose. We have listed the estimated times including our packing time and shipping time. For example, for a Standard Delivery package, the total time is calculated as follows:

(1-2 days for us to pack and ship) + (Shipping Time) = Total Delivery Time

For example, if you select Standard Delivery, the shipping time will be 3-7 business days, depending on where you live. This means your total delivery time will be 1-2 days for packing + 3-7 days (shipping time), for a total of 4-9 business days from the time you place your order.
