Hi Gerry:
Thank you for your response. I appreciate this and I certainly did not
mean to offend anybody. In fact, as people who know me a bit better know
how fond I am of the Jabiru line of engines - they are worth every
consideration - especially having met Australian airworthiness
standards, lighter weight, ease of repair at local AME's, etc. I would
have also preferred a personal email from the writer expressing his
personal opinion about the person he refers to, instead of involving the
entire list.

Subject: Europa-List: Snobbish and elitist comments
John Hi!
Unless you know personally or have come across Christoph in your travels
I'm not sure how his e-mail sets him up as snobbish or elitist unless
you know better?
I think the tone you read into the Christoph e-mail is the tone of the
email as YOU see it. I read it and understood exactly what he meant. The
comments such as apples and pears is right. In fact both Jabiru and
Rotax are good engines and are used based on personal choice are around
cost and perceived capability.
At the risk of stating the obvious..... E-mail comments are very OFTEN
misconstrued and are not a good basis to make a return comment.
Use of pertinent Subject words will ensure that a quick appraisal of
e-mail content can be made and appropriate action taken. Too many times
the 're' Subject prolongs passage of a subject where often it strays
---From it's original theme.
Regards
Gerry
