[PART 2] Official BLF GT Group Buy thread. Closed, but Public sales open!

Cool story bro…!!!

Here is a pic of the same field with no lights… :wink:

I knew it was a picture of a flight simulator. :wink: Those clouds in the sky look like procedurally generated. IMHO clouds still look very artificial in flight simulations whereas ground and water textures look extremely detailled meanwhile.

I wonder how one could manage to hold a BLF GT outside the window all the way through the landing procedure, though. :smiley: Or did you mod your airplane and have a “auxilliary BLF GT retractable landing light”. What type of plane is it? I assume it’s not a B747. :smiley:

Yourrid a few months mentioned having used a flashlight held outside the window of his cockpit while landing. So it did happen at least once! :smiley:

As I had said in picture caption, "(Here’s how it looks with the GT saving the day landing with no runway lights)"

This was a simulation of what occurred to me back in the late 1980s. My light at the time was a 6 D cell Maglight and I placed the light on the dash of the instrument gauge. One cannot hold a flashlight out of any aircraft or attach it to any part of the plane. LOL. The plane at that time was a Beechcraft B60 "Duke".

Ye of little faith

Here's the post that I made 2 months ago on April 19, 2018: Post 1309367

TA, have you heard anything from Neal lately about the replacement lights and replacement parts?

Has he mentioned if all the things on the Outstanding Issues survey have been taken care of?

This thread has been pretty quiet lately. I don’t know if people have gotten their stuff fixed and not said anything or if they are still patiently waiting.

Last I heard he had gotten all the missing items shipped out a few weeks ago except for a replacement reflector for one member. That was supposed to be taken care of last week IIRC.

Final batch folks all get their accessories?

Yup I did a month ago, no flashlight though.

Edit: Day 1 accessory order.

Nope. Not yet. Not even the GT has come yet.

Blitzlinger and Maverick1947, have you contacted Neal about getting tracking numbers?

I did, but he hasn’t responded about a tracking number.

I last contacted on May 9th, June 15th, and now yesterday and no acknowledgement about it besides repeatedly requesting details from me.

I got lights but no bag, covers. Guess a little more patience is in order.

Mine is not fixed, but I’m waiting for replacement parts. Texas_Ace told me that pasts were sent, but I do not have any information nor tracking nr.

Have you sent Neal a PM asking for this info? It can’t hurt to ask him. Hopefully it will show up soon.

Yeah, for US customers it’s typically a 2 to 3 week wait. I think mine was 4 weeks total, because it got delayed being sent out. Once it was in the mail, it was 2 weeks delivery time like a lot of things shipped to me from China.

Other countries could take longer in the mail. You just have to be patient.

I did. In March he told me to contact Leo @ lumintop, second message not answered since 3 days. Leo also is not answering my emails.
I have my GT since 4 months and I can not use it because of shipping damage.
Mike

Lol. That actually made me feel worse. Purchased may 5. What’s that 7 weeks? (Insert name calling & panic here) I kid I kid. Ok, on standby. :slight_smile:

I purchased my bag & cap on April 19th and I’m still waiting.

I know Leo was tracking the lost packages, but I’m not sure he has anything to do with resending replace parts. I could be wrong, though.

So the message you sent 3 days ago was to Leo or Neal? I would send a second message to the other person as well.

Tejasandre and morning_wood, that is such a long time to be waiting for the bag. I don’t know if Neal has tracking on these items or not, but I would definitely PM him to find out.

The faster we can complete this GB the better. All these delays are not cool. Lol.
