Thank you for posting that. An interesting read.

I do disagree with him with reference to Lucas, however. The basis being that the FAA has not given the legacy type modeler any method of compliance, and therefore has rendered the legacy modelers aircraft useless, and the modeler would at least be due compensation. So Lucas is actually not on point.
