Unfortunately, we have to admit that Japan’s aviation industry is still about 30 years behind that of the United States. That is precisely why we are determined to catch up as quickly as possible, to chase the U.S. with everything we have, and to firmly grab hold of its tail. This is the direction we at Flying Gift Shop are aiming for in every aspect: flight quality, safety, and effective use of equipment.
A pilot’s best friend – a specialty shop for aviation supplies
Flying Gift Shop is an online specialty store for pilots and aviation supplies. We directly import products from overseas—primarily the United States—such as Garmin aviation GPS units, headsets, transceivers, flight bags, flight computers, and various adapters. We also offer Japan-spec GPS units preloaded with Japanese airspace and airport data.
All prices are clearly displayed as total costs, inclusive of import duties, consumption tax, international shipping, and domestic shipping. With detailed support available in Japanese, we help everyone from private pilots and student pilots to professionals create a safe and comfortable flight environment.
Through our blog, we also share tips on how to get the most out of the latest aviation equipment, advice on safe operations, and practical flight techniques—providing not only products, but comprehensive support for improving your skills as a pilot. Our mission is to deliver high-quality aviation supplies that are hard to obtain within Japan, in a safe, reliable, and fairly priced way.
We believe that every flight must always prioritize precision and safety above all else. Carefully check each element—altitude, airspeed, and attitude—without ever pushing beyond your limits, and always strive to make decisions and control inputs with a margin of safety. Valuing every single flight and staying alert to even the slightest sense of discomfort is what protects the safety of the pilot, the passengers, and everyone sharing the sky.
