Mitch,
From emails from TG today I know FW's will be shipped by sea to UK and USA. Even mine to Australia are likely to come by sea. This is because shipping aircraft size boxes by air adds very significantly to the cost.
I won't go into the exact maths but as a comparison I calculate 7 normal TG boxes go into the same space as a K&C aircraft box (I have no idea of size of TG box). Calculate 7 TG normal box sets at US RRP and compare to TG FW RRP of US$155 and you can see shipping method is a major issue.
Hope that helps.
Regards
Brett
