Paul,
Slightly off subject, but relevant nonetheless. I'd appreciate it if you'd
pass the following on to your list members...

While its appropriate for alternative engine enthusiasts to have their own
forums broken down by engine type, there are many aircraft type specific
issues which belong in the relevant forum for that aircraft.

IMHO, and that of other pusher builders I've talked to, Canard Aviator's
"moderators" have been practicing their own brand of censorship for a long
time.  For example, they permit discussion about diesels, but suppress
positive opinions about rotaries.

This is about MUCH more than alternative engines. It's about having someone
control what we're allowed to talk about and selectively post and/or edit
our opinions. If this issue concerns you, please take a look at
http://kgarden.com/cozy/calist.htm for more details.

I stopped getting that one a LONG time ago.  Too many really
ignorant questions and scary wrong answers and too much
rudeness to people who disagreed.  Much nicer class of folks
here and no really stupid questions, many EXCELLENT
questions and many very knowledgable experts on rotaries like
Tracy, Paul, Jeff, and others.
