Reading Cindy's post, and even between its lines, I really don't see
any content that particularly defames the Puch. I'm guessing that most
European sailplanes are susceptible to very similar failure modes.
There is an excellent lesson here that a good PCC should also include
the axial play of control surfaces, and not just their deflection,
sense, and slop.

Also, if you really must post material like this, my suggestion would
be to do so either more completely anonymously or more openly. And
better yet either more moderately or not at all. I think we've all
occasionally posted in haste and repented at leisure, so I do
understand how strong feelings can cloud one's judgment. Mike's
suggestion of taking a deep breath before clicking Send is probably a
good one.

Thanks, Bob K.
