    Found two mail-order sources, Hobby Lobby (someone already
mentioned) and Sporty's Pilot Shop... Sportys is a tad cheaper,
especially if you consider the WATS line to call in the order there,
and each order to Sportys gets you entered for their annual
(man-carrying) airplane give-away.

    Probably the decider is which companys catalog subscription
list you want most to get entered on.

both places):
