Do not confuse the Aeroplane Factory with the Aeroplane Works.
Mace Gill was the original owner. When he sold the company, it was renamed. Mace is a stand up guy, and always delivered on his promises.
The new owner, has not been able to live up to this reputation, for whatever reason. He has since closed up shop.
I said about John Monaghan, not Mace Gill.
I know Mace sold Aeroplane Works to John then John renamed the shop to Aeroplane Factory.
Do you know when John closed Aeroplane Factory? There still is the home page in the web.
I paid $600 for PT17 to John via PayPal in March 2008.
