Why would anyone want a glider named after a disease or a body cavity?


You'll get over it when you see how nice these aircraft are, and learn
to pronounce the name correctly.


Well, yeah, but we're talking an international market here and the
marketing department (first against the wall when the revolution comes)
needs to be language/culture aware. General Motors found that out when
they discovered why the Chevy Nova didn't sell well in Spanish speaking
countries.
