Stien,
While I know you have had good experiences with these folks I have to say
I've had nothing but negative experiences with Kitplanes. Fortunately this
had been limited because once burned I tend to avoid any further exposure.
However, on not one, but two occasions I was not able to avoid this because
I won subscriptions to this rag (I would love to throw in a negative
adjective here but sadly I have never read it) just by being in the room.
And on both occasions they refused to actually deliver even though they
acknowledged they had sponsered the contest and that I had won.
It's good to know about the other products produced by this company as I
will also be sure to boycott them and to spred the word about their
unethical practices.
While I do agree that the copyright laws are very clear about one having to
demonstrate that they are attempting to protect their property, the exchange
posted was desgined to intimidate, not fact find to see if there was a
violation. That is inappropriate and unethical and particularly stupid
coming from a company whose source of income is based upon public
perception.
I am very content about this as over the years I have had the opportunity to
share the above negative experiences with many folks and have hopefully cost
them some significant business. I would suggest we all continue to do the
same. And may God continue to bless the American Way.

PS, I have also had a similar experience with Sport Aviation where they
published an article of mine but then renigged on the prize which was to be
some snap-off tools and a gift cert from ACS. Snap-off continued to refuse
and was summarily thrown off of my place of business (they lost at least $20
to 50K in business for that) and Jim Irwin of ACS said S/A was being a bunch
of pinheads and personally mailed the $25 certificate to me (for which they
have received at least $50 to $100k in business from me). As well, EAA did
not receive any dues from me until such time as I felt that person was no
longer with S/A.
PPSS and by all means archive this sucker and send it to everyone who is
searching for anything, hence all the key words in the subject heading...
