Aero-News Quote of the Day

"D2A was an authorized, independently-owned distributor for Chelton. Chelton has no ownership or other relationship with D2A. Chelton has received various inquiries from persons who have alleged that they were told by D2A that parts for which they claimed to have paid D2A were 'back ordered.' Chelton currently has no purchase orders from D2A and there are no 'back orders' to be filled. Chelton has also suspended taking any further purchase orders from D2A and has suspended D2A’s status as an authorized distributor."

Source: In a statement posted to the Lancair Mailing List, Chelton Flight Systems has confirmed D2A's shutdown but its taking strong steps to distance itself from any obligations it feels may be D2A's alone.
