Goes the other way around, though, too: if a pilot shop wants to
stay in business, they have to offer enough products and services
to stay in business at a price local pilots are willing to pay.
Maybe the pilot shop ought to be focusing on things pilots want,
and can't buy at builder's square.

If I pay 60% more for every set of brake pads I use, etc etc etc
in the name of 'supporting the local pilot shop', I won't be
able to maintain my plane like I want and I won't be supporting
*any* pilot business.
