Thank you, Frank! (BTW, my letter was addressed to the editor of the
magazine, not the author of the article nor his blog -- both of the
latter do, indeed, appear to be hopelessly biased. Fortunately, we
don't need to convince the author of anything: only his editor has
power to publish our letters as rebuttal in the magazine.)

A well written response, Linda. Good work! I wanted to write a
rebuttal to the author of the Ercoupe hatchet job, but after reading
his blog which continues to mock Ercoupe owners (he calls us PETA) I
am not sure I want to try to have an rationale conversation with a
back-slapping, good ol' boy from the "Tailhook Society" (or is that
tail wheel society). Those folks over there at AAA are having a good
yuk. I am not sure I want to get down in the mud with them. Since
there is no way that we can make them more intelligent, it is
probably best that we get out of their way and hope that their next
ground loop or low altitude spin doesn't hurt any innocent by-
standers.
