Default RE: Not even trying to hide

An interesting coincidence, but the very first factory OMP ever used to produce 80" OMP Edge ARF's was in Argentina. Good ol Gustavo. It's really not that hard to buy an OMP kit and copy it. Don't underestimate a 3rd world country person from being able to read a great plan like an OMP kit.

Planes always get copied, but you can always tell who the players are and who the fly by night outfits are. Don't see GP's coming in complaining about their rip off UCANDO. They are probably taking care of it like the professionals they are, laughing about it, because they know they are the masters of the universe. Besides the fact there is hardly anything they can do about it.

I see Coach bags being sold on the street on the same corner as their corporate HQ's here in NYC. They could care less, they know how to dominate a market and have a good laugh about the knock offs. And they can't do anything about it. These guys that sell them have permits issued by the city to sell them in plain view. So good luck Mike!
