The other side of the issue: I have subscribed to A.C. for several
years and like getting
the kind of information they put out. There aren't any magazines or
professional journals
that I agree with on everything. The Ercoupe is different from any
other plane out there &
I suspect you either love or hate them. They gave their opinion and
most of us don't agree
with it. I don't think it is going to hurt the LSA Ercoupe market!!
They do provide good advice and information for a number of gizmos
and instruments that
I can't find anywhere else. (e.g. great article on aviation batteries
last month and I wrote an
article for Coupe Capers reflecting their findings...if they choose
to print it.)

I posted to Tech because I wanted to reach the maximum number of
Coupers.
I just received a subscription offer from Aviation Consumer. They
are probably doing mass mailings.
I removed the offer document and wrote them a letter on it. I told
them how disgusted I was with their publication due to the
demeaning and incorrect statements made in their recent LSA article
about Ercoupes. I told them that they promise to be an unbiased
source of information for their readers, they failed miserably. I
further mentioned that I no longer have confidence in their
publication and not only will I not subscribe, I will never
purchase a copy on the newsstand again.
I then put the document in their POSTAGE PAID, RETURN ENVELOPE and
mailed it back to them.

I'm not recommending that you do the same, I'm just relating how I
handled it.
You are a great group!!!
