WTB- Navy flight suites (Sola’s phone disconnected)

Postby jimiemick » Sun Mar 17 2019, 22:10

Good morning fellow slappers,
My self and another pilot mate have been trying to get new flight suites, she’s previously had a SOLA flight suite, but for the past few weeks they where not answering their phone and today it says the number is disconnected.

And Sisley don’t do Navy flight suites in the CWU-27/P

Any help would be great, happy to get shipped internationally

I’ve just got an email from them apologising and saying they have had trouble with their phone. They’ve never been terribly good at communicating unfortunately.
While many enjoy activities where they challenge themselves to their physical limit, I prefer to do the same thing with my mind. That’s why I go on BladeSlapper, to be around other people who also enjoy being mentally challenged.

I had issues with communication and returns and would not recommend these guys (Sola) at all but I did get the ordered kit in the end. Unfortunately I’m ordering protective kit not a toothbrush so had to push the point.

I’m guessing this is a second business while doing another job working away. Any website can look pro !

Good luck

It’s royally annoying that is for sure, we think we have found a company that will custom make them. They have so far been very quick with responses.

Just a shame Sola’s communication isn’t better, I prefer to shop locally.

Hi there,

Apologies if anyone has had supply or contact issues with Sola. Just all the usual problems with growing startups, no excuses. Phone is down for the moment as we are partnering with a distributor to improve our response and dispatch times. Phone will be back up shortly with our new agents, in the meantime please email for queries and we will respond.
