I have been so upset that subject line is the last thing
on my
mind...!



You think like my Southern Baptist Minister...flew 20
years in
Tanzania...supporting the ministry over there...



I called him and he said pretty much the same....



May have missed your calling , John!



did you notice that the Warp prop stopped the engine
dead when the
plane went over....with no damage? Father....a
miracle?? Smile Herb

I
only have control over one person, me, and not
all the time.

Certainly
do not have control over anyone else.


If
I sell an airplane to an individual, I have no
responsibility or control of what he or she may
do with it.
Hope your customer does not harm or kill
himself. However,
if he does, you have no control over that. He
will not be
the first, nor will he be the last. Some folks
are built
that way.

The
man has been warned. What else can you do? I
don't know.

One
thing for sure, the airplane seems to fly well
and did not
fall out of the sky, nor did the engine
quit.

BTW:
I like the subject line. Wink(

what???



I am in
contact with another guy on the field who
witnessed the
accident and who did the test flight,sent me the
video, (do
not ask for it is restricted.) ...and he is
not
hopeful...!! And I am looking at emails that
have been
exchanged by several others who saw it...most are
discouraged... absolutely no instincts that are
necessary for
take off , let alone landing!



I sent the wife and kids ...widow/orphan
message...to him...
as thick as I could , no holds barred!!



I feel as if I am witnessing someone's
death in slow
motion... Sad Herb

Up shot...the new owner put it on its
back..and did
considerable damage which the club members
(a lot of
expertise in that club!!) have
repaired..to the extent
that the repair is hardly noticeable...

To be honest, after all that I have
heard,, it would
have been great if it was not fixable!!!
Sad



We have developed a plan to help save
this guy....
lets hope.... (wife and kids are last
resort!!) Herb

I'm
not sure what you are so
worried about. If the guy had it on its
back
already, he should be getting the
message, don't you
think? Nothing like a little personal up
close
experience to tell a guy what he does
and does not
know. Sounds like a great bunch of
guy's that would
help him put it back together. I am sure
that he
will now be open to suggestions.
