Default Claus-Dieter Zink takes measures against Lowlands Cup team

Hi All,

It was not the attempt to contact CDZ, it was the statement from the
person who spoke in the name of CDZ saying it was ok. To be sure we
also copied CDZ in this mailconversation. Now the claim from the lawyer
is that he was not an official spokesperson.

A simple NO (or maybe even 'no thanks') would have been enough. We did
something for the glidingcommunity and made a mistake by using a small
picture found on the Internet (not on cdz site). Not any way of
communication was possible with Mr Zink to settle this. Only paying
1400 Euro's. Not really a nice way of settling an issue.

Indeed two lessons learned:
1. Always check what you use.
2. All people in the gliding community are friendly, but some are more
friendly than others (original similar statements from G.Orwell)
