Stiffed on Ebay

I've been using eBay for some time . . . have 135 positive feedbacks and no
neutrals or negatives . . . bought and sold about equally.
Never had any problem as buyer or seller.

One good thing from your post, Jay . . .
the GTX327 transponder is fantastic! I've had mine for more than 2 1/2 years
and it is a joy to fly with.

I flew up to Keene, New Hampshire today.
NH is one of the ONLY states where real fireworks can still be legally
purchased. :-)

Can you define "real" fireworks please? Here in easern Missouri (or Missour
AH for some of you) we have a lot of fireworks tents his time of year.
Firecrackers, rockets, roman candles, aerial displays, and the less violent
sparklers, smoke bombs, fountains and other quiet stuff.

Is there somehing more interesting (excitin' and loud) available in your
neck o' the woods?

In New Hampshire, you can still purchase the real mortars and big stuff used by
Zambelli and the other pros . . . the stuff used in the big city 4th of July
shows.

They used to be available in Pennsylvania, but a few years ago, those were
outlawed there, too.

You can buy them in any state, you just need an ATF permit or license (there
is a difference) and approved storage.
Setting them of is under the jurisdiction of the local fire department.
Display fireworks are not outlawed in any state.

LOL! I certainly won't argue the point with you. You should know. :-)

Ross,

In all reality, it used to be that if you were a resident of a state that
had a distributor of commercial fireworks, you could "cash & carry". You
simply filled out the ATF form similar to a firearm purchase.
Since 9/11, all purchasers must be permitted or licensed effective May 24
2003.
A three year license costs about a hundred bucks, a drop in the bucket for
guys that spend thousands of $ on pyro.

Then there is the D.O.T. and insurance, but that is another story... ;-)

To keep this about aviation......
We have a company plane that during this time of year gets a real work out.
The computerized firing system we use for large displays exceeds $100,000.
The math is simple, fly one system from site to site, or purchase 3 more
systems!

Then there is the "off season" ;-P

I drove down to Afton WY from Jackson one time for a ride in a Husky.
Lonely road! I was especially bemused by the sign in front of a
roadside enterprise: FIREWORKS AND REAL ESTATE.

Hey, that's a great deal. They'll sell you the fireworks *and* a place to set them
off!
