Can you please answer post 513? It's Taurus-related

Cees,
Question: How can Ed have invented something (like you say) if others are already selling them? Are you saying that Tom Brett, Chuck Boyer, and Doug Spreng were copying Ed's prior work? What plane was Ed flying prior to these guys that he flew main wheel brakes on. Surely not an Orion - he would have lots points sticking his spinner in the ground. Are you now saying that he was flying a Taurus prior to the original plans of his Thanksgiving 1961 Taurus?
Andy
Andy,
You show me four questions.
I ask you first : Do you, in the USA know, Clément Ader and his Eole?
Search on internet and discover Wilbur and Orville Wright were not the only and also read FIRST inventors of aeroplanes and parts of these.
For that reason I tell you this, Taurus related:
Ed Kazmirski was the inventor of the brakes on the mainwheels and we only see these on the Top Flite Taurus Ed did use to promote.
The invention of these brakes is a little earlier than the Top Flite preproduction model, but later then the Oldest Taurus on Earth!
(NB We do not see them on the contest Taurusses, read this thread!)
This seems to be an short response but I was making another post.
Cees
