To set the record straight, Dirk didn't call Fred Herrmann a Nazi snowflake, nor would that be consistent to Dirk's demeanor or character. I was the one who made that reference and it was during a phone call that Fred made comments that Donald Trump being a white nationalist and racist, so I asked him how he would like to be referred to the all the mud slinging as a Nazi or Snowflake? There was this one occasion that Fred called me at 11:40 pm to dissuade my support for the current administration, and I couldn't shake him off until 40 minutes later that I told him that I really like to got to bed and not enjoying discussing politics when we don't see eye to eye.

In the end, Fred resorted writing the factory an email saying how I shouldn't support DJT on facebook because "....You should remember that more than 50% of US turbine pilots do not like Donald Trump. I am one of those turbine pilots." Now, I mean, either way of the statistics among hobbyists, I was never motivated to support DJT to either attract or detract our customer base, only my personal believe and support, is all. Fred, this is free country, and I would support which ever camp I choose to and for you go to the factory to undermine? Perhaps what I suggested to refer you as was entirely justifiable.

Fred, this is the first time ever that we at KingTech Turbines (including the Headquarters in Taiwan) and Pacific RC Jets would have to formally sever ties with a customer, so sell your engines and jets and we'll support their future owners, move on and move along. WE ARE DONE, Good Luck!
