PhreeZone 20 #4 February 10, 2004 The only 2 service centers in the World are Airtec's German office or SSK's USA office. Contact both if you need it in a hurry, but if there is anything majorly wrong with it only the Airtec office can fix it.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Markj 0 #5 February 10, 2004 There is a place here in the UK where you can get it serviced http://www.thomas-sports.com Thanks Monkey. Whether they service it or send it off to Germnay I am not sure but at least I have an idea of the price it will be. Trying to decide whether its worth it to buy an 8 yr old Cypress. thanks M.J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

meatbomb 0 #7 February 11, 2004 QuoteWhether they service it or send it off to Germnay I am not sure As mentioned above all CYPRESs get serviced by either SSK in the States, or Airtec in Germany. Chris (Thomas) just batches the units up, and sends them to Airtec in Germany. (Hence the cheaper price than if you went direct)--- Swoopert, CS-Aiiiiiii!

mr2mk1g 10 #8 February 11, 2004 go directly to airtec in germany. Its cheaper than sending it to an intermediary such as thomas sports and it avoids the hassle of customs when sending it to SSK in the US. As the cypres never leaves europe there's no paperwork to worry about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
