Problem here is the reputation damage and reliabilty of the Rare Bear has been done. I mean it's like the "Spinach" mess a couple months back. It's going to be very difficult to sell that product no matter what anybody says.

I was in Costco the other day and they always have food samples. Anything with Spinach in it is being passed on by. I also recall when Ace was blowing off the issue. Now the tables are turn and we are blowing them off. They would have to make me a killer deal to run the risk of it.

As far as this plane being used as a first trainer, I say go fo it. Set up real nice. Get some cash invested it. Take lots of photos before you take to the field. At least you'll have something to remember it by when you bring it all back in a garbage bag![sm=cry_smile.gif]
