Aero-News: Quote of the Day
ANN's Quote of the Day usually derives from current news, though we reserve the right to pick quotes out of history that have a bearing on the day's events and issues.
Sometimes, you'll find them timely and in keeping with the content of the day's news... and sometimes, they'll just be thought-provoking.
Reader suggestions and comments are welcome... and if particularly intriguing, timely, or poignant, may themselves become future Quotes of the Day.
Let us hear from you, folks!
Aero-News Quote of the Day
"Until we have enough detail to be comfortable with the matter, ANN has suspended all commercial business and sponsorship with any Pipistrel affiliate and will withhold our endorsements of any particular product--especially our most recent eval of the Pipistrel Panthera, until we can be sure that the companies involved live up to the promise presented by the products--which we still maintain to be some pretty decent airplanes. Yes, we have liked the products... but no product is worth a damn if the company that builds and/or distributes it is not working to best effect."
Source: From an ANN statement following a news story describing legal issues between the builder of Pipistrel Aircraft in Slovenia and its North American Distributor, Pipistrel-USA... this decision allows for proper seperation between our companies while we cover a matter that is of concern to the GA and Sport Avation community, and eliminates additional potential for bias.
