Exactly the same as the Carbon Fibre Case but much, much cheaper. How come?

Yes, this Carbon-Kevlar flight case is virtually identical to the Carbon Fibre Case in all aspects of its function, design and manufacture. The only difference is that instead of using pure carbon fibre - which in raw material form is fairly expensive - Gary & Doug have infused carbon fibre, Kevlar and glass fibre - in a polyester resin to produce a case of equal strength to the pure carbon fibre one - but all for the amazing price of UK£1950-00. That's almost half the cost of the pure carbon fibre one. OK so what's the catch I hear you ask? Well of course there is a slight trade off - but it is only very slight. Weighing in at a mere 23kg this Carbon-Kevlar case is 5kg heavier than the pure Carbon Fibre case. 5kg - so what's the bid deal? Well - we already know that there is a high demand for the lightest case on the market - but for the sake of a few extra kilos - I'm quite sure that many of you will recognise that this Carbon-Kevlar case is of course much, much better value. As already stated - the two cases are virtually identical so for more general information on why you need one - please visit the relevant paragraphs under Carbon Fibre Flight Case.

Is the finish of Carbon-Kevlar Case exterior the same?

No. The exterior finish of the Carbon-Kevlar case is plain as apposed to the hi-tech "weave" of the Carbon Fibre Case.

Is there the same choice of colour?

Yes, for the interior there is a choice of blue or light green. For the exterior there is a huge range of colours including British racing green, black, brown, cream, fuchsia pink, green, grey (platinum), maroon, navy blue, orange, pirate-red, post-office-red, rose-pink, royal-blue, white or yellow.

Colours for Carbon Fibre Flight Cases

How long will it take to make my case?

Due to a high demand for the flight cases there is an approximately waiting time of 21 working days from receiving your confirmed order.

Do you have any in stock?

Yes - we are aiming to hold one or two in stock for immediate or short wait delivery. Please e-mail for details of colours.

What about delivery costs?

For UK Mainland (except the more remote areas of North West and Western Scotland) the delivery cost is UK£100-00. For all other areas please ask for a quote.

Summary:

This is indeed the bass flight case of the 21st century. New modern materials laid in laminate form have enabled production of these supremely strong cases at - in most instances - less than half the weight of conventional fibreglass cases. Meticulous attention to detail coupled with great styling and a wide choice of exterior colours, all at an extremely competitive price means that these flight cases receive the thumbs up as a best buy product.
