There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I looked at both those sites and got nowhere. I ended up going to the AH Facebook page and purchasing it there. Look for the store link on their FB page.

I'm not a FB member. What now? I do have Paypal. I have accounts with PCAviator and FS Pilot however, it's not listed there to buy.
EDIT: I tried calling PCAviator at their 1-800 number, no answer, maybe they are not open yet, (on west coast usa time maybe?)

My guess is that it may take a few hours for the Grumman to show up at PC Aviator and FS Pilot Shop. AH wouldn't have provided the links if they had not intended to distribute the Grumman at these sites.
As for Facebook, what can I say. I joined some time back because it was the only way to stay in touch with family. I've noticed that many of our favorite developers have FB pages to promote and even sell their products. I'm currently monitoring the Carenado page to see if there is any news on their Hawker. Wave of the future, I guess.

After experiencing FSPilot Shop with the Globe Swift purchase (slow to post and never send notifications via e-mail) I decided all future purchases would be made through AH. I did that this morning for the F3F and aside from the discount coupon not working (said that offer had expired) the purchase itself was quick and painless. I used PayPal and it went through without any hesitation.

Using the method you described, I managed to download the F3F. Thanks for the tip Falcon.
What I presume.
As for the delay for EU customers, it is stated on the website:
[...]
Please note that due to logistical and geographical issues beyond our control, the product may not be available immediately from these stores. The delay should be no longer than 48 hours. We thank you for your patience.
[...]
So I'll be waiting patiently, no need to rush, kick a$$ or call names.
Cheers,
Mark
The AH PayPal approach will not accept my email address. Weird. Something not right with this. I'll wait till things get sorted.

looks great - no discernible impact on FPS - another winner...and I thought it was going to cost more - glad that didn't happen
PS - she compares real well to the one on the flight line
PPS - be sure to read the startup procedure in the manual - its the usual process, but with a few extra key clicks - and you must hold the starter button down until the engine catches - very nice touches throughout.

I know, I have sooo many airplanes to catch up with......but I got the F3F today and am loving it!!! Maybe you should buy just one more, you will not regret it.

People, please read the notices on the buy it now pages you will see that we have indeed pointed out the delay in the product reaching FSPilot Shop and PC Aviator. Also if you don't clear the cache/history on your machine, our website may not have updated with the new announcements.
We have been asked to include PC Aviator and have managed to negotiate a deal with them. Please understand that many other resellers charge very large commissions which limit any profit and make the whole business questionable unless one charges considerably more for the product. We don't want to do that, the F3F-2 stays at $19.95.
We are trying very hard to improve the buying processes but we have no control over the reseller sites logistics or timing to place product in store.
To those that have downloaded, thankyou and have a barrel of fun.
