''I don't have a brand preference, I've just read so much negative PR on FEJ, that unless you think ALL these people are lying about their grief, I know, I wouldn't touch their product. Why would you when there are alternatives??''

I do like other jets but I reserve the right to buy what I like, from whom I like, and when I like. Whether I torch my money with a BVM, Composite ARF, or Skymaster it is my choice. No one has the right to stop me because of their beliefs, feelings, or issues. I won’t buy from BVM because of the way he disrespected me when I was new to the jet world. I was young and eager and he was rude. This meant more to me than any monetary loss but I don’t keep pounding on him. I moved on and spend my money where I choose. I don’t protest Skymaster Jets, even though I had one of their there Hawks that blew a stabilizer off in flight. And yes it was due to poor quality. I do this hobby because I love aircraft and the hobby. I also know how to ask for specific changes on my aircraft when I don’t like what’s considered ok.

''Would you purchase a TV from a company if your research told you that the brand usually fails right out of the box, the company often ships it with missing parts, they don't respond to your inquiries, they threaten law suits if you don't keep quiet about it, etc? That, to me would be ''insane”

(yes, if that’s what I want) Please tell me what part of this hobby isn’t insane. Grown men spend thousands of dollars on toys with no practical benefit except a bit of joy. It really doesn’t matter whose jets I buy, my wife considers it all insane.

My point is if your desire is to make everyone aware of issues with FEJ then fine, consider it done. I am certain that most if not all brands of cigarettes and alcohol have the warning about the risk of cancer on the label, but you don’t call everyone with a bottle or lit cigarette stupid. We are all free to choose as we like so respect my rights and I promise not to tread on yours.
