Pricing/Option Changes Make Sonex and Waiex Sub-Kits 'More
Affordable'
Sonex Aircraft tells ANN that it has expanded its Sub-Kit
product line to include the Xenos Motorglider. Like Sonex and Waiex
Sub-Kits, Xenos Sub-Kits are designed to give builders more
flexibility and options for constructing these aircraft kits.
Sonex notes that 'Sub-Kits' allow potential builders to get
started with a minimal initial investment and gives them a great
opportunity to see for themselves the level of detail and
simplicity designed into Sonex Aircraft. Once this building path is
selected, the builder may purchase the remaining individual
Sub-Kits at their own pace as time and resources allow, and is a
great way to amortize construction costs without the need for
financing.
Also like Sonex and Waiex Sub-Kits, Xenos Tail Kit builders will
be eligible to receive a bulk purchase discount when buying all
remaining Xenos Sub-Kits in a single purchase. For the Xenos, which
is a larger kit, this bulk purchase discount is increased to
$3,000. For many builders who wish to use a Tail Kit to
preview Sonex Aircraft kits, this Bulk Purchase Discount incentive
narrows the gap between the cost of a Complete Airframe Kit and the
cost of Sub-Kit building. Although the best value for dollar in the
aircraft market today remains the Complete Airframe Kits offered
for the Sonex, Waiex, and Xenos (Savings are realized in large kit
discounts, incentives, and shipping costs for a one time purchase)
Sonex Aircraft, LLC anticipates that Xenos Sub-Kits will be popular
for those wishing to ease their way into the project without making
a full commitment to the aircraft up-front.
Additionally, Sonex Aircraft has announced pricing changes for
Sonex and Waiex Sub-Kits, making them even more affordable.
Machined Angle Kit components are now an optional upgrade for Sonex
and Waiex Fuselage and Wing Sub-Kits. For those not interested in
using these CNC machined kit upgrade parts, they can now be omitted
from Sonex Aircraft Sub-Kits, offering lower Sub-Kit pricing. This
change has also been extended to the new Xenos Motorglider Sub-Kits
as well.
