New Pilot Shop - need ideas

"Richard Hertz" wrote in message

I buy almost all of my equipment online, so I am not sure what kind of sales
you will make if you are not also an FBO.

....next time you are planning to buy something online, also check what
your local pilot shoppe might have and their prices you might be
surprised.

(wild/possibly silly idea warning)
....I have no idea whether this would be feasible or not, but one
thing I'd love to see would be reasonably priced laminated charts
(I used to be able to buy laminated aviation charts in Europe
but didn't find it here); how expensive would it be to have a
set up allowing you to laminate charts? would people be interested?

Why? For the price, just buy new paper charts. They go out of date soon
enough anyway.

laminated charts

Why?

really handy; no need to carry a chart and a
pad of paper; you write things down on the chart
as needed (and you can wipe it off as needed too);
helps reduce the clutter. well, it worked for
me.

I don't go to the local pilot shops - I own my plane so I don't have to
rent. I have all the stuff I need from subscriptions, etc. I am not sure
what people buy at pilot shops/FBOs either.
