I'm excited to have a FX3 on order and returning to flying after a hiatus post Air Force. One disappointing thing in this process is learning about all available options as upgrades to these aircraft as not everything is listed on the web site. If you go through the various listings in the for sale section of the web site you'll read about various builds that have options you wouldn't be aware of otherwise. I've read about different rear window configurations, 5-point safety harness for the front seat, the red FX3 mentions upgraded carbon graphics, there are custom paint jobs such as I see on TacAero's recent photo, people putting logos on the tail, etc. etc. It's great we have this capability and flexibility but I would hate for anyone spending this much on a dream to find out there was something that could have been done if they only knew.
I wanted to raise this observation first and foremost and then I would love for people to list what custom options ARE available that either they had done or know of that is not listed on the configuration/web site. What is something I should consider as I have plenty of time to learn what's available and make it happen when the time comes to make my final config decisions. It may be nice for the sales folks to have a list of available custom options to present informally to their buyers that are not listed in the config builder system so they can be aware of neat features to further customize their build and make it their dream.
I own a Newmar motorhome and they too offer "specials" and on my RVForums.com web site I run we share what specials we requested and of course what's approved or denied on the motorhome order. When I ordered my Newmar motorhome my salesman did not educate me about specials and that was very unfortunate. I would love to see the same here, what customizations did you get done on your factory aircraft build for others to learn from that they too may want to have done?
Please share so we can all learn from each other. This can be for any and all available aircraft so list the type if needed and the customization(s) available for others to learn from.
