So you want to ban everyone who clones a model eh? Better start looking around the industry. I was personally told by one kit company owner, not jet, that he directly copies other peoples work. This practice directly led to the name of the company! Another manuf, who does in fact do jets along with some other types of models, copied someone else's designs as well in their early days. They still sell a couple of these kits. One of these manufs is very well respected in the modeling community.

Just thought I'd throw those teasers out for you. No, I will not post the names here as it's not relevant. The point I'm trying to make is that just because a design is copied, doesn't mean they should be shunned by the rest of the world. Selling the copy as anything other than a copy? Now that I have an issue with. But if someone copied a Zippy Go Fast and called it a Sleek Streak, then so be it. If you don't copywrite a design, that's your fault. If you do, then you have legal grounds for compensation or other recourse.
